Tried to register with Sygic so bought a licence from their website. When loading it a message said thanks for registering for Vietnam maps even though I had bought Australia/New Zealand maps.

I emailed Sygic support and got this reply:
"You have purchased the licence designed and intended for smartphones, these will not work on Android 2.3 on In-Dash units, due to the fact that In-Dash devices with Android OS are undergoing some heavy customization from the side of the manufacturer, we cannot guarantee 100% functionality.

If you insist on using In-Dash units for navigation, I would recommend one with Win CE operating system instead, we have Drive software for navigation on Win CE 6.0 operating systems that can be purchased via the re-sellers"

They are refunding my purchase price of the licence. I don't think they realise it already works on the head unit. I was just trying to get regular map updates.
