Free maps for the 800

I have tried the search but can't get a result. I have just bought an 800. Was going for the 510 but seems a while away and think the 800 will be better for me. I'm looking for some of the free maps. Have looked at the toaster ones but I'm looking for Europe or just Spain to be precise. Can anyone point me to somewhere? Or do I just buy the Europe garmin job. Really don't want to though if I can help it.
Thanks

Choose generic routable
choose Spain from the Europe drop down list in pre-defined country selection.
Your done

I am like you i was going to wait until the 510 came out but may get the basic 800.

The 800 actually made a great GPS device for trekking in Turkey following courses I'd created beforehand.

IMO, this is the only downside to using OSM, but even then I've never had a cause to use a postcode route on my bike. I just don't use the device that way so I don't miss it, but I guess other people might.
You are indeed correct. I have been investigating the post code search on the 800 and it works with the garmin maps but not OSM.
This is irregardless of which map is actually enabled on the device.
i.e. if you have both OSM and for example Garmin city navigator maps on your device with only the OSM enabled post code search will work. This is what led me down the wrong path in beleiving the post code search works for OSM.
As has been said even with garmin maps the post code search is flaky at best.
I have tried to locate my sister address which is 6 miles away and it doesnt even find the road, i cant say the 800 is a good device as its pretty useless in my opinion.
