 |
|
I have the original 128MB TomTom Go card in my Go300. I have ordered the new map of GB by post on a SD card. Does this card only have the map on it or will this card replace my 128MB card? if so will the new card have room to add stuff to it or will I need a new larger SD card for the upgrade.
Thanks

It will probably only be 128Mb like the One V2 GB version & include everything which is a bit tight if you want to add extras.
256 or 512Mb cards aren't expensive anyway. |

Can't be.... The size of the downloadable version is quoted as 240 MB on the TomTom website.
I suspect the system software WILL be included on the card, as it always has been previously, but I have no definite knowledge. |

Out of the box TTV3GB is 189 MB (198,794,176 bytes) and the map folder is 113 MB (119,226,278 bytes) |

Profuse apologies.
Yes, you need a 256Mb or larger card. |
