Looks like Google has been swapped out with Bing. There's a thread on the Garmin message boards about it:

Nobody has posted anything positive in that comment thread. And nobody from Garmin is stepping up with any comments.
I'd say this is a step in the wrong direction. Someone mentioned using trainingpeaks.com to get the Google maps, which is great in theory but they simply don't have the interface there. I like GC but I have to admit that it's more routine than anything. At this point, it offers very little in my training. The ability to search the map is still solid, but the maps just aren't as good, aren't as easy to navigate, and have fewer features.
What says you? Am I missing some awesomeness here? I didn't see any sort of press release from Garmin so I'm guessing they knew it wasn't going to be popular.
