That is standard, Skycaddie charges an annual fee.

It is what happens, skycaddie charge you for the access to the maps. The salesman was correct it will work as long as you pay the charge.

Thats the only thing with SC, I have one and wish I had gone for a different brand, plus they dont keep their word on what they are putting into the market

I am probably going to jack the SC5 in this season. It is becoming temperamental and I begrudge having to pay again every year. I think the Garmin and others now offer a better option although the one offf cost may be bigger the differential after a couple of years is made up.
