If it is legal you should have a CD and a Plastic Card with the Product Code printed on it.
TomTom will only 'sell' a new Product Code with a New Product. _________________ Richard

Should come with the CD and a USB lead for connection to your computer. _________________ TTGO 700 (dead)

TomToms on ebay with no product code probably came out of some poor sods car with a brick. |

It's the map that has the code, not the CD.
If you upgrade the system from 4.42 you will need to buy a new map. _________________ TTGO 700 (dead)

Assuming of course that it is a legitimate (i.e. NEW) CD and product card that has not been used before ;) |
