That's all too common. When I bought my TT710 I discovered that it had
an older map on it than my friend got with his 710 bought a week
earlier from a different supplier. I have complained to Trading
Standards since TomTom refused to give me a free map upgrade, saying
simply it was the 'luck of the draw'. I argue that the maps are an
intrinsic part of the purchase and should therefore be clearly
identifiable as the current/latest before buying.
