9500 3/16 Update link problem?

Anyone having link problem with the new 3/16/09 update? Well the link is no good.

I called Escort but they are closed for today. Do they have a database update page at escort.com site?

Thanks... got it.

And of course they do.. I don't know what's going on with the link in their email but the link I kept in my bookmark must be old... earlier today it took me to this weird old looking Escort radar site with Times Roman font text that did not have the Database update link... now the site is gone altogether...(?) Anyho I found out apparently there is difference between escort.com and escortradar.com

Yes, don't go there, I typed that in once by mistake and my GF saw some of my web pages I went to and asked why I needed an Escort when I have her.

That's exactly what Mike V's wife asked him the other evening

No issues here. Downloaded it the day I got the email. Haven't applied it yet.

However, I did learn one thing from garmin. Never update immediately to the newest. Sometimes newer is more broken than older (as in the case of their 4.xx firmware for the nuvi series).
