Route 66 version 8 is available which will contain newer maps than you currently have installed BUT:
1/ There is no way of knowing whether it will work on your device as its a rather unknown hardware platform.
2/ The Route 66 version 8 software is crap, most of the decent features we enjoyed with version 7 have gone, no third party POI support is my major annoyance but there are quite a few others.
I am not too sure what/ if any navigation software will install and run on your device and this is one of the prices of purchasing a no-brand device from e-bay as they never get support for updates like the device supplied from the big names such as Garmin, TomTom, Navigon etc - Mike |

Thanks for that Mike, probably best I leave it as it is then in case I muck it up, thanks again, Jim. |
