looks alright , i look forward to trying it out. just got postcode working on it. (got too much time on my hands today... lol

There is no plan to make the current Garmin mobile XT available to people with mass memory only.

However, Garmin are releasing a product called Garmin mobile (no XT in the name).

Basically, this is another over the air product. And its priced at $9.99 (just over �5) a month, a subscription model. Presumably, you get all the map updates etc for free, unlike Garmin XT.

Im still waiting to hear if the new version will cost existing XT owners.

Here is a news release on the new versions. It doesn't give many details, but it does say you can perform an online google search, and add locations found as favourites, or call them, or just navigate to them right away.

I have, of course, fired off more questions. Will post any more information as I get it.
