| I can't find where you can purchase i-Go and what does it cost. Is it available online or only though highstreet retailers? |

You can buy it in Hungary and Slovakia (most notably Bratislava) . Not sure if that is also possible online. Negotiations with resellers in other countries are still ongoing.

Around £180 for the whole of Europe (including the astern Euopean countries on offer) compares quite favourably, I thought.

I guess you're right. I forgot about the Eastern European maps. It was also comparing it to Mapopolis and iGuidance.
Now if only they would sell it as a download or on DVD without the SD card. |

Does anyone know if you can buy iGO in the UK or is there an English language website out there. I'm desperate to get some decent Eastern European Maps before I go on holiday and the only websites I can find are in Hebrew or Hungarian!!
Cheers

I've answered my own question. I got a copy from "The Unbelievable Shop" formerly Aspid shop, see following link :
http://www.aspidshop.com/export/store/product_info.php?products_id=1747
Took 2 days to get here by Fedex. I've had a quick play with the software, pretty impressed so far, and the Central/Eastern european maps are far better than the competition.
Cheers

Can you copy it from one SD card to another SD/CF card or does it have to stay on the same card?

Unfortunately it's locked to the card on which it was purchased.

Oh dear.. that'll stop sales then - who wants to carry around a card you might lose.

That's a good point. Most questions have been about what happens if the card fails. They should at least let you backup to a spare card and allow just one activation in any six month period. Might be worth a question on the iGO section of the developers forum:
