just ordered the new edge 810, without maps i may add. in hindsight i probably should have done bit more research! once it arrives am i able to just download maps from the garmin site? i assume i cannot use the route direction features without this?

Have a look at this site http://www.scarletfire.co.uk/2012/11/foolproof-course-navigation-on-the-garmin-edge-800/ it shows how to install free OSM maps which are routable.0

Scareletfire has all of the details.
I did a lot of research on free OSM maps.
For the UK Talkytoaster maps are fantastic.

I use maps from talkytoaster with my Garmin but you should be aware that not all roads are on the maps. Not many are missing but some are. You should check your area on the OSM website to see how complete coverage is.0
