Contact Info No Longer Works.
I want to update my Nextar X3i GPS, but I can't find out how to do it. I've plugged up my unit to my computer and don't any prompts for updating the maps. You don't have a website anymore either. How do I get up-to-date maps?

Nextar has sadly been out of business for sometime. Before they did, this is how they used to worK:
- To keep prices low - Nextar did not support it's devices with updated firmware or maps.
- To get a newer map - one had purchase a newer Nextar GPS device.
- They used to offer a reduced rate trade-in, but also discontinued that as well :(
