    Thanks, I know how to update the firmware and download new updates to an SD card, but I wondered if anyone knew how to update the internal charts.

    You'll see on the spec page you linked to:

    "Preloaded maps Yes"

    It has preloaded charts for UK & Eire, something equivalent to EU706L, that's what I want to update to a newer version, and not to have a SD card in the slot.

    On a USB Garmin product, that would be easy, but don't know how to do it on this one.

    They are not stored in it's RGN, but they are stored somewhere on the unit itself, so should be able to update, and then not to have to leave a SD card in it.

    Just wondered if anyone had managed to do it, and/or knew how.

    Thanks
