I got my speed camera upgrade with a free coupon in "the box" my wife bought me a tom tom one last Christmas from Halfords. The guy that sold it to her said it should not have been included in that model. All I did was logged onto the tom tom site and punched in a series of numbers on the coupon and plugged in my machine into a USB port. No questions ever asked.

in actuality, your sat nav has a small antenna, and there are a number of satalites around the earth, and that they lock onto your sat nav via this antenna. that's how they recognize the place you're. now you may get sat nav structures which would be taken from motor vehicle to motor vehicle, and are completely transportable, and might additionally be used walking. the only element you prefer is the sat nav equipment, and the 'map' of the rustic/continent/or maybe worldwide which you extremely prefer. as you're probably contained in the united kingdom, maximum sat nav structures you purchase might have those maps already programmed into them, yet ask on the shop in the adventure that your unsure. i might recomment the tomtom, with the aid of fact I even have stumbled on it to be stable, as nicely as hassle-free to apply. one be attentive to suggestion nonetheless, it wont artwork in a tunnel, with the aid of fact the radio waves from the sattelite won't be able to get into the tunnel.

Perfectly legal in UK as uses GPS to advise when you are near a ~safety~camera. In other countries, Germany for example, not legal to use, though the data is available.
