Have you tried Medion UK? www.medionshop.co.uk
On their site goto:
Accessories -> PDA & Sat Nav -> Medion Gopal _________________ Darren Griffin |

Having looked at the Medion site and checked the prices I would be better off gettin a new one I think. It is outragous the prices they charge for an upgrade. |

It may feel like an upgrade but it's an entire new map at the end of the day and they cost money.
I'd agree though, a new unit would make economic sense. _________________ Darren Griffin |

Can a Mdeion take any other vendors softwear and maps, as that could be an alternative? |

...pls don't go there.......trust me!
Some people on this forum have succeeded, many have failed.
I'd suggest a search through this part of the forum, you may well find the answers thjat you are looking for.......
Personally, I'd buy a new one from Tesco, Ebay etc.
Cheers

don't sell yourself too cheaply!
I've found that the older generation are sharper than a lot of youngsters....even if they do smell of wee a bit!!

GoPal 2.x can use maps from Falk Navigator 5 (FN5) and GoPal 3.x can use maps from Falk Navigator 6 (FN6) as well as Blaupunkt Lucca 5.3
As a result, the latest maps available on GoPal 2.x are Q2/2007 (From Falk Map Update for E,N,P Series 2008-1) and for GoPal 3.1 that would be Q1/2007 (Not sold seperately yet).
GoPal 4.x has maps Q2/2007, too new for an update yet (and no compatible system is known).
Note: These informations apply to all-in-one satnavs (I somehow like the pseudo-anglicism PNA more, it's shorter ) only, the GoPal versions for PDA use different map versions. |
