Are all European cities included? Does anybody know how well Austria is covered?

Yes, I just returned from Switzerland and Austria. Coverage of Austria is complete. Just beware of road construction. The unmarked detours of summer road and street construction cause the GPS to send you in circles!

Yes. You will need the maps for Europe. Below is a list of areas covered in Europe. If you can not specify what region you want when ordering, you will just connect your device to your computer and download the maps you require via the Tom Tom homepage. the As far as the technology working it is a GPS so it is operating on an array of satellites so it really doesn't matter where you are on earth. Hope this helps. Countries fully covered (99.9%): Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Italy, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Hungary, Malta, Monaco, Norway, Poland, Portugal, San Marino, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the Republic of Ireland, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, the Canary Islands and the Vatican City. Countries partially covered: Azores & Madeira, Bulgaria, Croatia including coverage extension on Adriatic coast, Latvia, Romania, Ukraine, Russian Federation, Turkey and Ukraine .

My Litebook came with four adaptor plugs: North America, Europe, Aus/NZ/China, UK. So it should pretty much cover most areas of the world.

It should do - why not have a look at their website; it lists all the countries where it has cover.

Yes, it covers Mexico and Canada. It also includes all Central America and the northernmost parts of South America (say, to the south end of Venezuela). That stated, I have never used it outside of the US... so far. Some caution seems wise; for instance, the urban area of Caracas is not to be found on these maps (but Mexico City is). If going far south past the border, do look for a second opinion; there are crowd-sourced routable maps in Garmin format that may be more reliable.

According to my grandkids, Europe version is a little more complicated, with ferries, train stations, and tunnels added to the mix. Hope this helps.

Yes Italy is included. I traveled to Italy in September and rented a car to drive into Northern Italy. The magellan GPS was very helpful. All maps are preloaded and ready for you. You only need to tell the unit that you want these maps. We had no problems at all. Hope this was helpful.

No idea. But I can assure you I used it in Barcelona, Paris, Berlin, Viena, Italy and Peru, without any problem.

Hi, ocean,I don't know whether it contains Europe maps. It died even when I was trying to update US maps, not saying Europe maps. I don't recommend this unit AT All.

Seeing that your post is 2 months old, you've probably found out whether this device has good coverage in Budapest and/or Prague. I'd like to hear more on Budapest and Hungary, since there is a Hungarian company which sells a separate detailed map of Hungary (incl. Budapest), which is really good. Is it a good buy comparing to what is included in City Navigator 9?

Hi,I believe you need a type C or F for Spain and type G in London.You can look at worldstandards.eu to see a chart of what type of outlets each country uses. I bought this product for travel to two other countries and it worked perfectly.

We used it in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and the plug was European, not British. Note that some German outlets are recessed, and we found that this plug was small enough to fit those as well.

I have no idea but they worked GREAT in Europe (Germany, France & Switzerland)

no they are not. all countries are outlined but you wont find that cities/states are outlined within them. I imagine they would need a much bigger map inn order to successfully do that. Sorry!

No, they're not. Before you scratch it, you can only see the limits between countries. I confess I used Google maps to scratch in the correct area... because once scratched only the capitals and most popular/important cities of some countries are marked with dots and stars.

I have not been there, but just typed in an address for Reykjavik and it found the address and calculated correctly. Thus, yes, it will work there as well. The maps have always been very accurate anywhere I traveled in Europe and I have traveled to very many countries already.
