Eric, just update the firmware on the RNS (to version 2680 or above) and the world of 32GB SDHC cards is your oyster  :smiley:

Could you clarify whether the latest firmware is 2680 as you mention or 2660 as advertised by some sellers in eBay?
Thanks.

p3eps: Might I ask, where are you going to purchase your retrofit RNS 510 from so that it has this latest firmware?
I suppose this can also be installed via an update disc if one can source it. :smiley:

Its under my desk as I type!  I bought it about 4 months ago from ebay. 
Relaible source... hmmm... Its from Lithuania  :shocked:  The guy said it was from a written off car, but who REALLY knows?!
As long as you buy a 'C version' unit, you can upgrade the firmware without any problems.  Its just a case of downloading and burning it onto a disk - then put it in and leave it for 50mins.
If you want new firmware, check out www.my-gti.com

I have asked this question before but that is because I am worried... :embarassed:

I have filled up my Ipod...so 18.000 tracks meaning 110 Gig (50 Gig left) will my RNS be able to communicate...

I am asking this because my brother (with the same Ipod and in the same situation) connected it with his BMW Pro Nav and everything electronic shut down....back to the dealer and his nav was not able to handle so much data...it was able to handle a couple of Gig.......so he now works with a crappy radio Mhz antenna connection device...for me a no go.. :sick:
