Have you tried updating your Talex recently?

I tried about 10 days ago, it worked but the database cycle hadn't change which was unusual for them.

Tried again last night and this morning - It connects to the internet but then drops out ...

Tried having a look on their web site for any info - get re-directed to a domain supplier!

Tried ringing their number .. its dead!

I can only presume they have ceased trading???? - a real shame.

Thanks JONSCZ for those links ... and WHYOWHY for the company info ...

I got my Talex Lite to update OK with the new utility, although its the same database cycle I last got from Talex number 7113.

I was hoping the M4 Slough average speed cameras would have been added by now to a new database cycle.

Good news they are going to continue to support the devices ... I just hope they continue to keep a very up to date database with regular updates as before.

I was 1.5yrs into a 3yr subscription, but its great news they are still trading, albeit under a different name.

I suspect Talex's foray into the world of GPS Sat Navs proved a costly affair, and looks like Novus will concentrate on just their excellent proven speed camera detectors.
