Medion GoPal GPS

Hi Guys

I have just purchased a Medion GoPal GPS model PNA500T which uses Navteq mapping.

I am in Australia. I would like to know a couple of things.

1) Can this software be used to include speed cameras and red light cameras as well as speed zones in Australia and on this GPS?

2) How much is it?

3) How much are the updates?

Re: Medion GoPal GPS

Hi
many people avoid buying Medion, mostly because that Medion is sold by Aldi, discount supermarket store chain.
There is no doubt that both Medion and TomTom use the same technology with remarkable different price tag (guess which one is cheaper).

We did not have chance to test any Medion device yet. We will release POI data for Medion after we test it.

Hi

Medion does not seem to be a bad brand as is most of the Aldi's products.

If you have to buy one to test it there probably won't be any left as this sort of item sells out on the day they hit the stores.

So how can we try out your software to see if it will work?

If you do get one how long before you release the POI Data.

Re: Medion GPS

Hi
With Medion you need to purchase additional software for which we may provide required data format.
We do not have intention to make our own version of Speed_Limit or POI_Warner software. It may be considered again in case of increased public interest.

Hi Mark

Sorry I may be a bit dumb today but are you sayin that if I purchase additional sofware then I may be able to use your data?

If so which software do I need to purchase?

What do I need to do after that?

Medion needs additional software to alert you about approaching camera locations. Additional Medion software can use our data.

Re: Medion GPS

Medion software can be loaded with our files (CSV format). Files are available in our POI zone.

Re: Medion GPS

Hi Mark

This is getting rather frustrating as I do not understand what I need to do. Please explain the process as the only file I have on the GPS is the Navteq map - Australia.map and I do not understand how I get your POI files to work with this file.

Re: Medion GPS

Hi
As I already explained, we do not provide support for Medion GPS. You need to purchase additional software, but we do not sell it.

Re: Medion GPS

Hi Mark

I got that already and I asked you a few times now what software do I need to purchase that works with your POIs and the Navteq map software on the Medion.

Re: Medion GPS

Martyn, you can buy software from any provider that you already mentioned in your previos posts... The POI warner uses a CSV database with their software.

Re: Medion GPS

Hi Mark

I have purchased the Speed Limit sofware and installed it on the GPS. I have also registered with GPS Data Team.

How do I now get the software to use your POI's?
