Download Garmin mapsource

I have a CD of Garmin Mapsource at home, but neglected to pack it for my travels.

I now want to update my GPS on the road with the wanderlust set of maps. To do this I need to install MapSource at an internet cafe. Does anyone know where Mapsource is available as a download?

I found the following instructions, which rely on installing Gamins training software first. Unfortunately my internet connection is too slow at the moment to get through the instal. Does anyone know if this or alternative sources work?

MapSource updates available from Garmin website require existing old version of MapSource or Trip & Waypoint manager (or this training software) to be installed.

You can also load maps to your device using free SendMap20 program:

cGPSmapper (scroll down to free SendMap20 rev 4).

It is much smaller download then MapSource, however with it you can't visually select which maps regions to load, but select files from disk.

First download BitComet from Here.... BitComet - A free C++ BitTorrent/HTTP/FTP Download Client

then go to here... garmin worldmap || isoHunt - World's largest BitTorrent and P2P search engine

It'll download the worldmap for you, not trip and waypoint manager, but thats on the download... but bear with it it'll take a while...

hope that helps.
