Hi, I got Insignia GPS NAV02R from Best Buy. The map data is back to 2009.4 1.0 PRI USA VIR. Can somebody help how to get the updated map data? Thanks.

navajoht,

I am a FORMER Insignia customer, myself.  I can guarantee you at this point that there will never be map updates for any of their GPS units.  Your best bet is to check out www.gpsunderground.com, and figure out how to convert your GPS to running something like MioPocket.  At that point, you can obtain the latest Navteq maps, and they will display in this unit.  MioPocket also includes a lot of features that you'll find missing in your unit.

Thanks. I heard using iGo is not bad. Will try.

Yeah, that's right.  iGo8 is what I have in my unit now.  If I can be helpful, feel free to reply here, or PM me.  I'll do what I can.

davegoh,

As you should be able to see from every post like this about every other GPS Insignia makes, they are NEVER going to have updated maps for any GPS.  There never were updates, either.  Your choices are to either just live with it, buy a different GPS, or upgrade this GPS to iGo8.  There are threads for how do to that at gpsunderground.com.
