If it's a US device it's possibly coded to only update from the US website.

because it's a US device, fairly standard in my experience, hardware is "regional" with some manufacturers, it helps keep the price points under their control.

But someone buying this in the US and then coming to the UK or Europe for a holiday must surely be able to get European maps for it to allow it to work here???

You'd think so wouldn't you.

Have you tried this garmin plugin, https://my.garmin.com/maps/chooseDeviceType.htm? select automotive, it might detect your model and let you know about maps.

Anyone ever ordered off Dell? My Mum ordered a laptop last week, paid by finance, and the order was accepted last Tuesday. The online status of the order still says 'Order processing - waiting for order payment to be finalised'.

Customer services say they cannot get the order up on their system until this stage is complete so cannot offer her any advice. The finance company say they accepted the application the morning after she made it and gave their approval to Dell.

Is this normal? I remember back in the day when i used to order Mesh computers whenever Championship Manager added new system requirements and the long lead times on their orders, but I'd assumed things were a little better customer service wise now that retail stores have muscled in on the market?
