Overlays for Navigation

Belated Happy new year to one and all..............

I'm thinking of getting an overlay for the satnav specifically one that has locations of speed cameras. Has anyone purchased one of these if so, how did it go?.........did it interfere with the software already installed, did it work, or was it a complete waste of time?

Also finding the post code section rather annoying in so much as you can't insert the full post-code, only part of it!..is there an overlay for this?

I'd be interested in hearing of anything that improves the satnav experience.

Where do I check disc date?

It should be on the front of the DVD box the disc came in.

Its not the make, but format/type of dvd you use. The best is DVD-R. This type of format is compatible with a wide range of dvd players.
For More info please read http://www.osta.org/technology/dvdqa/dvdqa5.htm

Hi guys,

In order to get speed camera locations, is it just a case of an updated disc?
