Its comes down to how you have it modded. You don't need all the states' POIs delete the states you won't ever use, which for me is everything west of illinois

If you need some help let me know. It only freezes due to older CE tech trying to run a more advanced NAV system. if you have OS 1.62 stick to a 2gb SD if you have 1.64 get a transcend 133 4gb card. either way its not a $1500 nav, although for me it works better than the OEM and looks badass in the car.
Software versions don't matter much when the screen doesn't come on...

I will sell mine, with everything included and working properly, if anybody wants it. I bought it long ago with the intention of installing it in my car but I like my cubby space too much and it never happened. It's been sitting in the garage ever since.

See i lost my cubby space to custom gauge pod when I was boosted, now that the car is all motor, gauges are gone and cubby is back and I wanted NAV instead.

I just updated my software if interested. Not only is there OCN8, but I have installed Mio Pocket as well. Take a look. http://forums.maxima.org/6th-generat...y-4-200-a.html figured I would share.

Sorry for crappy iPhone pic but favorite mod so far! Did this a couple months ago with an 03 cubby and stock software, couldn't figure out a way for the OCN8 to work unfortunately. The software started having problems at one point and I had to go in and reset the memory card and everything has been fine since!

Thanks for the that. Its up to us to keep support around for this system since the OEM support is all dried up.

I will be using mine for NAV almost exclusively and a Forward Looking Infared Camera for those late night drives to avoid Animals.

plenio 2100 is a discontinued product! If you must pay 120 dollars for this unit, i think u should shop around for 7 inches gps with bluetooth option. I think lots of brand have the similar dimensions and better quality.

After 2 years, I still love this mod,. However, I haven't figure out how to add a speaker so I can hear the GPS and play dvd at the same time.
