Can't seem to find any info on this - would it work?
Been offered an F900bt from one of our US users.....
Sat nav still operational?
RDS tuner etc?
Thoughts?

It's been mentioned quite a few times....
Main problem will be the radio. US radio only tunes in on odd frequencies, i.e 90.1, 90.3, 90.5 etc, meaning you will not be able to tune in to a lot of European stations, as in Europe all frequencies are used (90.0, 90.1, 90.2, 90.3 etc.)
Also you will not have RDS, which means you will also not have TMC traffic info...
In addition of course you will need to install european maps, and you will have a problem with the DVD region coding..

Nice one - I'd kinda reckoned on that, and hoped that it had been a firmware thing to update/convert from US to UK....
No worries though - thanks for confirming my suspicions
Cheers,
Dan
