Got it on new on EBay from a seller in Florida. I mistakenly figured it was the USA model. It is not. The model number is 4V00.081
Anyone mistakenly have the USA version that wants to trade? |

The device recognised in the UK as the current RDS-TMC device ends with a part number of .013
I am not too sure from your post is this a UK or US device but either way a UK device will not work in the USA and neither will a USA device work in the UK - make sure of details prior to trade - Mike |

Speaking with the folks at TomTom, they said it is the European model. |

My mistake - look here.
According to this the US one is 4V00.083
So, what exactly is the .081?????
