Just got my first GPS from Ebay,It comes from China with no manufacturer details. It runs iGo Amigo and does the job of navigating through the UK and France perfectly well.
I would like to know 2 things. Firstly is it possible to find out the brand of the GPS? and secondly can I use CM93 nautical charts on it through the USB interface? |

As no-one has answerred, I'll suggest you post a picture of it. That MIGHT jog someone's memory.
You'll probably just have to scour the internet, take the back off or you could try asking whoever you bought it off!

VERY doubtful, I'm afraid.
You can't do anything like that, even on any of the leading brands. |

No manufacturers name because they are generally running illegal copies of iGO software. |
