Has anyone tried upgrading to a new firmware version after the hack (done on firmware version 5.4) and what happened? Also, if you updated to the 2008 mapping software, and have a SD chip installed, did it take the whole upgrade and is it functional? I did the c530 hack and all works well.

I have received conflicting answers from Garmin on whether this qualifies for a free upgrade, so this has prevented me from buying. I have a 320 now, and version 8 is SIGNIFICANTLY worse at navigating than 2008. Also, I am told that the storage in the 530 will not hold all the info in version 2008 should you choose to upgrade. This must be another model Garmin is phasing out One caveat with this unit is, it comes with Version 8 of the mapping software, NOT the current 2008.
