Latest map version for UK and Europe?

[Piggie]

I just bought a 2nd hand TomTom720 and was told it has the latest maps and all up to date.

So I can confirm this, can someone please let me know what the latest map version is for the "Great Britain and Western Europe" maps?

Many thanks.

Currently we are using v830 mapping, tap the sat strength meter followed by the version box on the device and the resultant screen will show you whats on the device - Mike

Thanks for that, well, I know my version is 7. something. (not sure now many revisions there have been between 7.something and 8.30)

Very very very roughly, how long has v830 been out to download and update?

Note: I'm talking about UK and Western Europe in case that makes any difference?

Map 830 was released May 17th. You'll need the latest application (8.351) to work with that map.

Thanks for that info.

I don't suppose you know the versions that came before this current one do you?

Is there a list somewhere?

I'm assuming there were quite a few different versions between 7.somthing and 8.30 ?

Something like 800, 805, 810, 815, 820 and 830.

But if you are updating your maps, you'll only get offered the latest.

v825 was around for a while but I don't recall the v820 maps? - perhaps I missed an update - Mike

Which is why dhn said 'something like' ....

I wasn't 100% sure.........

Again thanks for the reply.

The TomTom I bought from a guy, in his advert he stated that "All maps etc are fully up to date"

When I recieved it, it's got v710.1561 on it. which according to TomTom is 6 quarters (1.5 years) out of date.

Not very happy so trying to come to some agreement on the unit.

Application 8.302 can also read map 830. Most likely, any application version 8.2 or later can read it.

That's what short term memory gets you, mvl.........

Forgot that I was using 8.302 with the 830 map for a while as well.........

Thanks.......
