any advise from those that have this unit?

Darwin, did you manage to figure out this issue you were having?

No idea yet about downloading updated maps but the GPS app/device that came with my SD card is called iGO:

I emailed the viewtech people referenced above. They came back saying that I should be getting the VT-DGT710. Which is the one with the whole center console bit. Will the corrolla one not work? I have a 2008 Canadian 5dr LB. The price they quoted is $245 plus $86 for DHL so that's $331 plus taxes and brokerage fees will be near $420ish atleast by the time I get it.

Any input? Also their specs say it has Win CE 5.0 not 6.0 as others have mentioned they have. Anyone have a source cheaper than $245?

Here is the one that everyone else seems to be using the VT-DGT650

VT-DGT710

Sounds about the right price
Before fiting unit, have ready a 12v car stereo AM FM Radio Booster Antenna
Adaptor plus snaplock cable conneters
Just in case, these parts are cheap
but handy if radio reception is poor afer fitting new unit
saves taking the unit out again
let us know you get on
take Pictures of units comming out and fitiing new unit
and internal wiring harness of you car
these pics will prove usefull to other members
good luck
