My bro has my Nuvi now in LA so I can't try anything yet.

Has anyone been able to put Super's files on a Nuvi?

Has anyone tried this file out: http://ineedfile.com/download/7583867-garmin-israel-routable-map-v1-46-zip

Super's files are only for an iPhone or a Windows Mobile device, but I can't even get them to download...

I only saw people mess around with it, never did it myself, but it cannot be too complicated to add maps.

Garmin finally sells Israel maps for $100:
https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=72664&pvID=73172#overviewTab

It will work with any Nuvi.

Anyone buying?

You mean that until now there was no Garmin in Israel?
Also, alot has been written here about about the difficulty in typing english in israel. Does this have that issue, or can you spell Hebrew?

This was just released this past week for the first time ever.  Garmin has never had Israel maps before.

I don't have them so I can't tell you if they're any better than all of the other horrible Israel maps.

I think any gps in israel that is in english will have that issue. There are a million ways to spell these streets. Is it Echad or Ehad? Is it Petah tiqwa or petach tikva? Is it beitar illit or betar? Some of the mistakes my mio made were really stupid. Like kanfei mesharim (yes with an "m").

 I thought it said it is Hebrew also:
•Displays roads and names in the Hebrew alphabet and is also available in English.
  What do you think that means, that the GPS alphabet will come up as Hebrew?

Yes, you should be able to input hebrew or english letters.

Cool. I wonder if there is a way we can all share a download, or somewhere to get it for cheaper
