Via 125 card slot activated

Just installed the latest software update and you can now use a micro sd card in the Via models, Works a treat on my Via 125 live.

What do you plan to put on that uSD card now that you have it working?

There's only 150mb left of the 4gb on my Via 125 so the next map update may be more than 4gb, so how many guesses as to what it may be used for, they wont have activated for no reason.

Ah, that's right - All versions of the 125 have 4GB that could (for now) cover Western Europe.

No doubt about it, at the rate the Western Europe map is growing, the only way to avoid taking pieces of it at a time will be more space. The good news is that, if all works as it should, MyTomTom will look at space on your unit and space in any installed uSD card and will let you know what's needed.

My own experience so far has been that it's better to wait until MyTomTom says that a uSD card is needed, and insert it on demand, rather than try to anticipate the requirement and install one in advance. So when it comes time to deal with it, you might consider having the card uninstalled at the time, and poke it in there when requested to do so. Seems to avoid confusing MyTomTom - an application that is pretty easily confused!
