Yes and I participate in it.
I have not been told of free updates for a year, but when I connect
my device some stuff gets updated.
Also note. More detailed maps are sold by these folks that are
regional in nature.
Hefty at 49.95 each.
I have found I need to add rest stops on interstates as they are not
part of the basic map.

I recalled something from TomTom. According to the TomTom web site,
new TomTom products support Map Share (tm). To quote from
http://www.tomtom.com/page/mapshare: "TomTom's unique Map Share
technology enhances your navigation experience, letting you make
instant corrections to your map directly on your TomTom device. You
can also receive similar corrections made by the entire TomTom
community of Map Share users." One does this by connecting the unit
to TomTom Home software running on Windows or Mac.
It sounds like a partial solution for map updates if you are part of
the "community." Does anyone have any experience with it?
The web site also says they sell map updates, which I think may be
free for the first twelve months on purchases of new units (but I
don't know - I had trouble finding details during the quick look I
took). Sorry this response isn't more definitive.
