How to load USA/Canada Maps in Garmin 760, pre-loaded with Europe maps?

I have Garmin 760 with Europe maps but I want to use it in Canada/USA, can suggest how I can load Canada/USA maps and what product I should buy.

1. Go to the Garmin site - choose maps/buy maps and fill in the boxes. There is only one option (City Nav NT North America) - but you do have a few options. It seems rather odd to me, but all are listed as the same price. If you can download it - that is probably a good option for quick delivery. If you get the download - you would (probably) have access to the maps on your PC if you already have Mapsource. You don't get that if you get the SD card. There is also a risk of accidentally wiping/damaging/loosing the SD card if you get that, and then you have no comeback. You would probably be able to install the maps onto either the GPS itself or onto the SD card. I suspect that you would not be able to put the whole of the USA onto the internal memory of the GPS - so you could either select the part you are going to visit, or just put the whole lot onto your SD card. The DVD option appears to include Mapsource, which I think would be useful if you don't have it already. I use Mapsource - so I don't know what the selective loading options are without Mapsource. I think that the downloaded version gives you a simpler install. Shop around too. Other US websites may offer the DVD version cheaper - but shipping may change that.
