Thanks guys!

First of, I wanna thank nomad, ambishop and 2Wires for the great work they've done to make this all possible. I've never thought that I've get a chance to customize my car's navi like I'm able to do now. Thanks guys!

Today I've successfully updated my system with a customized V26 built with the latest v26-3d-final ambishop postet shortly ago. Now my car's got 2D and 3D mapview pointing North or in travel direction and I've replaced the voice and board computer menus from GB/F (English and French) to US(f) and US(m) (American female and male) including my own splash screen.

That's just the perfect setup for my wife and me (she uses the German language and voice and I can choose from the female and male US setup) The only glitch left is that the setup screen still shows D, GB and F for the language choices (which is no problem at all!) and the cluster still switches to French, when I choose F (of course,) but since I was able to replace the Lng_Francais file within navboot with the US version that's the only drawback with which I have to (and can) live.

This is just awesome!

I've read that V27 is out, allowing for changing to 3D (perspective) view using the "hidden" GPS menu. I haven't seen it myself, but if it's like I've heard, I most likely won't go for it. The way like ambishop implemented the 2D/3D switch is way more intuitive than calling up a special menu by following a kinda complicated key press sequence (I'm thinking of my wife here <grin>), so...

Just my $0.02
