Looking to download maps for my holiday tomorrow in Majorca. At the checkout, message say takes 1-3 business days. Is that really correct? I would image the download would be instant, no? Don't want to waste £34.99 as I want the maps now....

Edit- the download links don't appear to work.

Cheers,

http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl

Use this site, select manually select tiles and pick the area over Majorca.

Takes an hour or so for it to be automatically generated and then you get sent a link to download file.

There is a big debate if it's as good as garmin maps... But it's free and guaranteed delivery time!!

Do you have any recommendations for an Alps bike trip map source? Are these good for off-road?

For the Alps try talkytoaster website.... I know he was working on some.

Off-road personally there is nothing like an OS map (my 705 doesn't support them unfortunately) but abroad I have no idea!
