Thanks for writing. Every product I have in inventory sells internationally. Maybe I'm sold out on Amazon right now. Please write to contact@ronselectronicsales.com and I'll make sure you are taken care of. :-)

Thank you for your question. We are sorry, but currently we don't plan for an Australian version.

The Mio company went out of business in 2009 (i believe). There used to be a way to get maps for other regions/countries etc. however, since you can't connect to their website (because they are out of business) to download maps, this product is now obsolete.

Hi I wish I had a answer for you I am not satified with the maps or the POI's. I live in New England and the maps are ok but the POI' stink I have a sked Simplesoft many times how to update the maps and POI's.. If you find out what other maps we can use please let me know. My garman is far better....

Yep, I have the same problem.Not sure why Mio introduces such a limitation.I asked my shop and they received confirmation from Mio that it should work.Unfortunately loading the maps fails, even if you copy them in the prime memory under the maps folder.The European maps use the fbl extention, the US ones use .map, not sure if this is the key to the problem.Anyway, if Mio thinks I will buy another Mio to use European maps then they are dreaming...

Mine was a north america set but you can buy map sets for most everywhere. Take a look at web site.

Well i am wondering the same thing too. They seem to have replacement models on the Japanese pioneer website, but who knows if we are getting em here in the US. Seeing as how your post was almost a year ago, i guess its a safe bet to say that we may not be.

I can tell that I play without any problem the US market Bluray media as well as some I have imported from Italy. Pay attention to a paper that is inside the box, with the instruction on how to activate the areas - click 1 for zone 1, 2 for zone 2 etc.

I just bought 255w at Amazon but it shipped by another vendor and I just found out It did not have a new map version.How do I update the map(package did not have USB cable and where can I find the Usb cable) I thought If I buy it from Amazon web site all GPS should go with new map.I'm confuse.I need some experts to help me out. Thanks,

Looks like the model you're inquirying about is:000-10966-001. According to Lowrance's website this one does NOT include the Gold maps pckg. Base model only, with global map. You'll have to purchase a separate map pckg.This one does though; 000-11051-001. Contains a microSD card preloaded with "COASTAL" Us & Canada maps. Basically Navionics' GOLD map pckgGood??

I found that you can get dozens of region-free players at www.world-import.com. I've been searching for one of those, since I have a lot of German DVDs as well as American ones

The device will work in Australia (or anywhere else in the world, for that matter), but it comes with maps for North America. Australia/New Zealand city/highway maps are $189AUD (see https://buy.garmin.com/en-AU/AU/maps/on-the-road-maps/city-navigator-nt/city-navigator-sup-sup-australia-new-zealand-nt/prod116482.html). Since this device has been discontinued, you probably can't get free map updates (and I'm not sure they're available outside North America, anyway).

Yes because like me you bought the UK version right or Asian. End you are trying to play it in the states. Which is a different format and the download content only works on the US version so they match up I bought all the downloads and can't use them either
