Daughter has just purchased a compact Road Angel, registered it over the internet and sycronised it via the PC. However when ever she uses it she gets a message saying it is out of date . This happens every time she tries to use it.

I recently bought a Road Angel Compact and I am also getting this 'out of date data' error. This happens every other time the unit is powered up. I have sent several emails to Blackspot but have had no reply yet. I saw this message thread and tried to use the link referred to (http://www.blackspot.com/downloads/software/compact/Compact-V2_36.zip) but it doesn't seem to exist anymore.

Has anyone got any suggestions ?? What does this zip file actually do? and does it resolve the problems ?

Is this a common fault on the 'compact' ??
