Garmin presented a "bad Topo map" to begin with (and I'm not the only one thinking like this).

To be more specific:
-Garmin took good old topo maps and removed red color from Trail(wide), Trail and Trail(difficult). Now they are all Dark Gray.
-Now Trail(wide) is Trail and Trail is Path.
-Garmin removed Trail(difficult) and made it Path too.
-Garmin removed hundreds of POIs, like Hotels, Gas Stations, Bank-ATMs.
(searching for ATM in the center of Innsbruck, the closest was only ....50 Km away)
-The "Red marked" Trails are few and only the famous ones (and only in the pedestrian activities).
-Hiking and Mountaineering activities produce the same routing, both on device and Basecamp
In Basecamp it always produce the Shortest route (Locked featured) and even if you are next to a "red marked" trail it dosen't necessary use it.
-Not so many Bicycle routes, so when you are somewhere with no Bicycle routes, it's like the old Topos.
-Not showing Street names both on device and Βasecamp, although they exist in the .IMG (move the cursor over a street and you 'll see the name)
-Most of the lines in the TYP file are thin Bitmaps and are almost invisible on Nuvis with High Def screens like 37xx, 34xx and 35xx.
So the map is almost useless on those devices and you cannot ckeck both CNENT and Transalpin at the same time (new ban that Garmin has implemented in the new firmwares).
-On older "on the trail" devices, with no SQL support, the trails are hard to spot with no color like previous Topos.
Here are some screens for comparison with Topo Osterreich v2 (above) and Transalpin 2012 Pro (below).
Look at the lack of detail of new map (and the lack of POIs) at the same zoom levels that v2 shows almost everything.

Two good features I 've found:
-Active routing that works most of the times, but if you are planning a "tough" (and not the Shortest) route on the mountain, you 'll need more waypoints than Start and Destination.
-The addition of Bicycle "tracks" (can't call them trails or routes) which are dotted lines that go along roads, dirt-roads and trails.
In Mountain Biking they turn purple, but in all other activities are dark grey and hard to spot.
I think that would be easier for Garmin to put this feature in the .db file (like the "red marked" trails) than to draw them in the .IMG file.
Changes and additions are easier with the .db file, at least I think so.

The idea of using SQL is very nice but a lot of work has to be done by Garmin, so that the map is easily readable on the screen like the older Topos were.
Is this a new ...potato for Garmin (after firmware 6.40 recall)?
I really don't get it. Topo maps and "on the Trail" devices are for people who really know how to use both map and device.
Probably most of them have an older Topo map on their devices.
How are they going to accept something so less.
"Active routing" planning is for just the newbies, because if you want to go hiking or biking in a place you don't really know, first you are going to search the web for existing tracks (and there are thousands) to download, import them in Basecamp, check and plan what you want.
I don't think that anybody who "invested" in a device like 60csx, Oregon, 62/78 or Montana, parks his car by the woods, turns on the GPS and says: "Find me a trail to hike, or bike". At least that's NOT what I do.
