Hi Guys

I'm looking at buying one of these from ebuyer and had what I hope is a fairly easy question.
How easy would it be to install the TomTom software onto it as the pre-installed stuff is a bit naff?

Comments greatly appreciated.

    Peel back your baby's eyelid to find no nationality or religious identity mark there. Peer at your baby's eyes for them to reflect back just people-throw away your flags and religious symbols...

    If you look at the Reviews of the product on the Ebuyer site, you'll find step-by-step instructions on how to install TomTom software on it.

    Doesn't look terribly hard, but note the comment:

    "Ebuyer comment - We cannot endorse the hacking of the unit with other software but instructions on how this can be done are available at thepctailor.com"

    I suspect that if you hack it and it then fails, the warranty would probably be void, but that's a risk that many people could prob live with...

    did just the same thing my self.

    There is no real hacking involved, only changes are made to the SD card. So make a backup first.


    Loading tom tom software onto the Navigo is a doddle
