- Today i have installed the F900BT. For now it is working fine. The radio response quickly and the startup-time is okay! As far as i can see i have map version: 02.000600 and firmware 3.020200 Because the F900BT is working fine for me and therefore (in my opinion) no firmware update is necessary i only want to update the navigation software.
