I had to do some searching and finally found this:

which led me to this:

I noticed Alaska is nowhere in the 2.0 package I purchased.

1) Is there a map I have to download elsewhere? (do I have to buy some special map?)

2)Why was (EXCEPT ALASKA & HAWAII) not listed anywhere here?:

Odd, first line in the description:

Centrafuse Navigation: North America (EXCEPT ALASKA & HAWAII)

I see it too.

On a side note I wouldn't feel too bad, Centrafuse is still a powerful front end, 3.0 is going to come out and existing customers will get a discount on that upgrade, who knows maybe their GPS will have Alaska and Hawaii then too.

Now getting to my point when I purchased my copy of centrafuse I already had the maps so I didn't need the full nav version so when you comment try and I repeat try to use your small brains and think before saying something, and if you don't have anything that you can say to help on the matter SHOUT UP! Now thehouston if you send me a pm I believe I can help

UP!

Now, without any clarification from the OP, how were we to know they added that to the description after he had his problems? Why don't you think before you say something, and realize that we didn't see the problem, and figured it was just "user error". Apparently our small brains are no match for your intellect and lack of punctuation usage.

Centrafuse contacted me and sent me a link to some old outdated maps.

I have to uninstall the new maps.

Did you ask if you get a free upgrade when new maps come out? I'd at least ask. How out of date are they?
