Julio,
I have a Nuvi 760, and use Oztopo version 2.1 I think it is?
Works really
well, as suggested it is around $230 - $250.

Hi Julio C
As stated above, the best maps are probably the Oztopo or the new Garmin topo maps.
You can get a "Contours" overlay that will overlay Shonky and T4A maps, and will also overlay on top of the City Nav map, which is the standard map on your Nuvi. The "Contour" overlay turns all these maps into topo maps, at a very low cost.
You can buy a DVD with "Shonky" and "T4A" Maps,
"Contours Aust 2.0" along with a whole heap of POI files for $5 from :
$5 DVD
I have all of them on my Nuvi 660 and all works fine.
Regards
Neil
