Navigon??

[UK Bloke]

Hi
I see there's a new update for the XT which adds 'Navigon' as a new release, any idea what this adds to the device?

[Stu]

I have just installed this and can't see anything on the XT

[HarveyM]

It's listed as a separate, 'initial release' in Garmin Express

There is a Map Theme called Navigon.

Weren't Navigon one of the budget sat navs a few years back?

From Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navigon

(…) Navigon's products included Navigon branded personal navigation devices as well as OEM software for the navigation, wireless, and automotive sectors. Navigon had offices in Asia, Europe, and North America, and employed more than 400 people.[3] Navigon AG was purchased and fully acquired by Garmin Ltd. in July 2011.[4] On December 1, 2020, Garmin has announced the discontinuation of Navigon products and customer service.

So probably you’re right, it’s just new map theme.

There is a Map Theme called Navigon.

No, a theme is just 1kb, and this is 1.27 mb, and a kind of firmwareupdate.

[auke54]

You are right, it is. Well, let's see what it turns out to be.

Hmmm, interesting - nothing like this here in Austria for Zumo XT (6.30), just a Cyclops-Update and a icelandic keyboard...

The Navigon update is a vehicle image update. A file 'Navigon.srf' is or has been placed in the folder \Vehicles
