Does it actually not work, or do you simply not have the necessary maps?

AFAIK, all commercial GPSs function everywhere on the planet.

From looking at the Garmin site, it doesn't appear that their City
Navigator series covers Costa Rica. Their WorldMap product probably
does, but it's only available on CD-ROM; it can't be downloaded.
It's not clear from the site how much detail there is for Central America.
