Have you tried Medion UK? www.medionshop.co.uk

On their site goto:

Accessories -> PDA & Sat Nav -> Medion Gopal

Having looked at the Medion site and checked the prices I would be better off gettin a new one I think. It is outragous the prices they charge for an upgrade. Crying or Very sad

It may feel like an upgrade but it's an entire new map at the end of the day and they cost money.

I'd agree though, a new unit would make economic sense.

...pls don't go there.......trust me!
Some people on this forum have succeeded, many have failed.
I'd suggest a search through this part of the forum, you may well find the answers thjat you are looking for....... Wink
Personally, I'd buy a new one from Tesco, Ebay etc.

Cheers

don't sell yourself too cheaply!
I've found that the older generation are sharper than a lot of youngsters....even if they do smell of wee a bit!! Very Happy

PM me.......

GoPal 2.x can use maps from Falk Navigator 5 (FN5) and GoPal 3.x can use maps from Falk Navigator 6 (FN6) as well as Blaupunkt Lucca 5.3

As a result, the latest maps available on GoPal 2.x are Q2/2007 (From Falk Map Update for E,N,P Series 2008-1) and for GoPal 3.1 that would be Q1/2007 (Not sold seperately yet).

GoPal 4.x has maps Q2/2007, too new for an update yet (and no compatible system is known).

Note: These informations apply to all-in-one satnavs (I somehow like the pseudo-anglicism PNA more, it's shorter Smile ) only, the GoPal versions for PDA use different map versions.
