Hi all brought a binatone x350 carrera and i cannot find any updates ie maps or speed cameras on the binatone website, does anyone know where i can find updates?

Also while im here does anyone know if i can put tomtom 6+ onto and sd card and run it straight from the sd card or do i need to overwrite the orignal software?

I have recently purchased an "M&S" branded X350 and noted the useless Binatone website. M&S advised that extra maps can be purchased by phoning Binatone... apparantly they are supplied on an SD card.

I was also interested in creating my own POI and downloading it into the machine. The POI files seem to be in some strange format (.CDT) and I can't seem to find any info or tools. However, even if I could Binatone advise that to download ANYTHING that they don't produce and officially make available will "invalidate my warranty" - this seems very shortsighted especially as they don't seem to produce anything !!!

Do all manufacturers do this ?

I'm a newbie on Sat Navs so any advice on a unit that doesn't have such a limited map availabilty and restrictive practices would be welcome.

Thanks all ....

im after exactly the same thing. Ive discovered that if you can boot up the machine in its winCE.net v 5.0 rather then the software you should be able to run tomtom or something else concurrently. You can install a patch on to other devices but i havnt found any to install on this one... any ideas?

I phoned Binatone and they said that there are no updates because the Carrera A350 is new and when updates become available they will be posted on the website. I notice though that you were looking for updates in March!
The Carrera A350 is not as new as I thought. Oh well, you get what whoever gave it to you for your birthday paid for.

To be fair it is quite good and I haven't had any real bloopers from it.
