Hi
I am a new user ,i recently purchased a Navman510,but the maps on it only show half of the Bingley bypass in West Yorkshire, I e-mailed Navman and Teleatlas and got nowhere.
Can anybody please tell me if the new maps show the whole route of the Bingley bypass.
many thanks.
spangle.

Hi,

its the same for the Selby bypass, and as for the Dishforth section of the A1..

How do we find out if the new maps are worth the extornist prices?

The new maps that come with the SmartST2005 software are apparently the same vintage as those that come with V3 of the software.

Looking on Navmans homepage , there is now a map upgrade pack. Do I understand it correctly that there is no difference to the one orginally delivered with ICN510. I would then call this fraud.

The V3 maps apparently didnt work on the icn 520, probably because the data file has a different structure. So it would seem strange for them to not send out the new maps with SmartST 2005, and to put in extra effort to convert the old maps instead? I cant honestly believe they would do this, although it is possible that the European maps have not been updated for the 520 & smartst 2005?

Hi - I Have upgraded my 510 with ST 2005 and reloaded the UK maps and I can comfirm that the maps have been upgraded, I have only been using the new software and new maps for a day but have noticed a big difference the main one being a new bypass is being built in my area and it is on this version of maps and it is not open yet !

It says 'Pan European' maps, but for UK & Ireland ONLY 'major cities'.
This implies the rest of UK is still based on the old version - can you confirm pse.

Also they mention new features:
New Advanced address entry wizard and address search engine
New Optimised routing and guidance
New Navigate to 'Home' Option
New Improve Map imagery including

Is this all different (improved) compared with the original 510 specs.
Thanks,
