    Newbie Tomtom Go 300 update map help

    Hey all,

    I have been using a Tomtom Go 300 with the 1GB SD card with GB maps for many, many years now . It was bought brand new and has never been updated or haxed.

    This weekend when taking a trip the TomTom had no fricking idea where i was due to new roads! At one point i was on a country lane with a huge clear motorway running alongside of me for miles!!

    Anyway, what is the easiest/best way to update the map (without paying £££ to Tomtom!!)

    Thanks all

    whatever you do - DON'T buy a new TomTom - I lost my Go930 last week in Barnsley, went and bought what seemed a nice shiny Via120 UK+I Live - get it home to find that it's not accessible from my computer at all. TomTom Home won't recognise it and you can't browse anything on it with Windows - it's not recognised as a usb drive. TomTom are introducing stronger anti-piracy measures so I needed to download a new program called MyTomTom and install it, it get's the updates automatically and applies them without you being able to interfere with anything, or add anything you haven't paid for!!!!!

    Been googling and it seems it's only browsable on Linux systems, but not even close to being hacked yet
