As some of you know I dabble in the supply of COMAND units. Recently I decided to purchase an up to date Teleatlas disk for my own COMAND. Having spent £188 (including postage) on the Michelin variety I was keen to back it up in case it got damaged. Having previously backed up my 2004 disk I thought this would be easy. Not so. The new disks appear to be protected very well and despite all my efforts to create just a single backup, this one wont copy.
Having tested my COMAND with my previous backup (2004) and the new 2005/2006 michelin disk, I find the new disk is far quicker at reading and hence drawing maps. So the moral is dont use copied disks. They are not as good as the originals, if they work at all!
If anyone has a genuine 2005 GB Teleatlas disk (without/without TMC) for sale I'm interested in it for my wifes car.
