They can get map updates for free, all they need is WiFi access... am I missing something here? There is free public WiFi all over.
I'm shocked that the complaint comes from the SF area of all places, there is probably a higher density of WiFi there than anywhere else on the planet.

The updates can't be triggered by the user, so you have to leave your car somewhere (or your phone in your car) for a extended period of time to hope to get an update. There's also not free public parking everywhere (much less free public parking with WiFi coverage), especially in the urban areas where “my parking is remote from my living space and doesn't share wifi with it” is most likely to be an issue. Also, outside of certain urban areas (and this can still be a problem outside of urban areas) there isn't free public WiFi everywhere.
