Hi there - thanks for taking the time to read this.
Background
I recently acquired an Evesham Nav-Cam 7500 satellite navigation system (see here (http://www.evesham.com/navcam/default.asp?e=EBA80EB7-3018-4497-9FA0-564D7E31D6A2)).
This system runs WinCE 4.2 (the system information says the following: OS version: WINCE_4.2 TW, ROM version: 1.00.19, Bootloader version: 0.27).
When the unit is powered on, a screen appears with four large buttons - one for the AA Navigator software, one for an MP3 player, one for a photo viewer and one for the 'control panel.'
The unit uses a 1GB SD card. Without the SD card in you can still get to the start-up screen with the four buttons, but if you try and open anything other than the control panel it asks you for the SD card.
My query
I have an old iPaq PDA with TomTom software on it on an SD card. I'd like to get the TomTom software running on the Evesham Nav-Cam. I just get the impression that there must be some way to 'unlock' the WinCE operating system on the Nav-Cam to allow me to run different WinCE programs from the SD card.
Is this possible? If so, where do I start looking for information on the subject? I've had a good search of the net, but without a bit more specific knowledge, I'm not really sure what I'm searching for.
Many thanks for your time,
Chris Thorn
