As you can now get map updates for a FAIR price. Previously Australian TomTom users had to pay around $140 AUD (if I remember correctly) to get a map update for their TomTom device.

As an owner of a GO930 myself I ended up doing two map updates (at times when I *really* needed them) but other than that could not justify the cost.

However now you can be happy to know that TomTom Australia is now offering a Subscription Service for $49.95AUD per year where you will get all four map updates for the year. Until the 20th of July 2010 they are also offering a subscribe-for-12-months-get-six-months-free which is a great offer too.

So for less than half the cost of a single map update you can now get a year and a half’s worth… See I told you Australian TomTom users could rejoice.
