helfinger Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Just to let you know about some new info on the pogo drive unit. As some of you have been aware there have been a number of software issues as regards to the Pogo Dives functionality. I'm pleased to say that origin has been working over the last few months to address all the issues people have been having. As of today there is a totally new software update available to download for existing users: The new updates are as follows: 1) Brand New Map Graphics/Road Names 2)Latest Released Version Of NAVTEQ UK Mapping 3) Software bugs Fixed Speed Camera Updates : 4) Specs Personal Average speed alerts is now added to the unit (as on the pogo Alert) 5) The store camera locations now works also 6) In aprox 1 weeks time the unit will also have mobile Camera Hotspots added on to the Camera database as will the pogo alert.

RedRobin Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Helfinger - Although I'm very happy with my PogoAlert, I'm not so happy with you for your repeated reassurances many months ago that Apple Mac support was being worked on and was imminent at the time. Say anything to achieve a sale, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRR Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hmmmm..... Anyone else experience any problems with PogoAlert causing lots of interference with FM radio ? I called technical support but they just said 'Yeah it sometimes does that, you can try resetting the device that sometimes fixes it" WTF I cant listen to the radio Seems like the original joys of my PogoAlert are fading fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRobin Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 ....Mine had a very dodgy base unit connector but I'm glad to say that Pogo exchanged it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 We if its not right updated the map so others don't suffer the same. At least if you find a problem you can report it and correct it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moschops Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 How does the Pogo Drive/Alert fix to the dash, I've sent the vent clamp thingybob, but I've an Origin B2 at present and was thinking og upgrading, the B2 was hardwired as the cradle sat nicely on the dash, but is this the same for the Pogo Drive/alert or can it not be hardwired? Any pics please? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRR Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hi Moschops, The Alert is via 'sticky base' or 'window suction clamp' with interchangable mount/clip.... You can attach the included laser detector to the window clamp if you like... From memory the Drive is by 'window suction clamp'. The Alert in a really dinky unit, the Drive more like a 'pocketpc / pda'. Hope that helps, Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moschops Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Many thanks Lee, What do you have? Currently have an Origin B2 with car kit (well did have!!!), but looking to upgrade to either an Alert or Drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moschops Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Tom, Your message box is full.... Hi Tom, Okay, new car should be arriving soon, so I'd like some prices etc on replacing my Origin B2 with a Pogo drive. My Origin had a hard wired car kit with the aerial and laser sensor, which the dummies in the garage left in the car despite being told and re-assuring me it would be removed (they are prepared to pay towards the replacement ) So all I have left is the B2 unit, Pyramid and USB cable and it's still boxed. Oh it still got its subscription until later this year. So what will I need to put it into the new Golf? Also is it worth me taking out the 3 year subscription they are currently offering for £99 ? TIA Wayne PM me if you like...thanks PS working nights until Thursday AM+++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRR Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Sorry Wayne, missed your last question, I originally had a 'Pogo Drive' which was steaming smelly pants!!!! (see my review elsewhere on this forum) Got that changed for a 'Pogo Alert' and its brilliant! I'm guessing both products must have come from different manufactures, they're just chalk and cheese. I'm about to call up and get the 3yr subscription offer today. HTH, Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moschops Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks Lee, I believe the Pogo Drive now has updated software? Left a message for Tom to call me as I want to change my B2 unit. Need to be quick though as I'm still umming and arrgghing re the 3 year subscription.....:confused: Have spoken to Tom, Pogo Drive ordered...

dogbucket Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Noticed this morning my PogoAlert is now alerting to possible laser sites, so looks like that feature is finally working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
