I am new to this group, so Hi all. My wife Anne and I are keen walkers, (her more than me). But I like the gadgets and that keeps me motivated. We recently bought a Geko 201 and are really pleased with it, but now it is time to get some mapping software. I have the chance to buy a set of Memory Map Navigator maps for south UK. But the person selling says I will need to download the software and then buy the license key to use it. That is fine, but from what I can see on the Memory Map website, I can only download the 2004 version. This if I am not mistaken will not allow me to use the 2003 maps. Am I right in my thinking? And if so, is there a solution? Hope someone out there can help.
I would recommend that you buy Anquet maps instead. There after sales support is excellent and maps cheaper.

Thanks for the info on Anquet. As Jiffy had suggested though, it was on Ebay that I was going to get the maps. Haven't seen any Anquet products for sale (maybe they are so good no one wants to sell?) I am not being tight, but money is short after Xmas and why buy new if second hand is available?

Seconded. Been using them for a few months, and found the software ease to use. Great product :-)
I Belive if you open the map with a hex editor and go to the very end you will see something like copyright or ordanance survey 2003 e, change that to 2004 and save it and it will work ok
