Hi Folks

I won a Blaupunkt travel pilot 100 satnav device last year and have been trying to find out if I can get european mapping for it. seems not, according to blaupunkt themselves, they didn't seem convinced though.

First question then, does anyone know more than the bluespot teccies??

Secondly, if above not possible, what bits do I need to make my HP IPAC palm computer become a sat nav, I know it's possible, just know nothing about this kind of technology.

Could any answers be in words I understand please, I am a builder, not good with techno terms!!

Or am I better off getting a TomTom or similar?

Don't know yours but I bought a Viamichelin satnav that was no longer supported by the company so I fitted a bigger memory card, installed basic windows operating system and can run anything on it now - including Tom Tom

Oh, and it will even play films too!

Can you give an idiot's guide as to how to do this, I have the same prob with a viamichelin box and and have been trying to work it out, but not with much success

Sadly no as I had to make various registry changes and it was a while ago. Guess you've been struggling with the french forum

Never mind, it'll keep me busy next week when I get home again

What makes it harder is that to work you need some stuff on the card and some on the units own limited internal memory. Did manage to locate latest speed cam upgrade for the viamichelin too

Cheers Mike, been working my way through it slowly and not getting too far. I need to spend a bit of time sorting it properly. Struggling to find much Michelin related, but determined to crack it

Have to admit I cheated and posted mine to a guy on trust with some cash and it came back singing and dancing to all I will ever need, only thing it dont show are the cash dispensers that pay out double
