I was going to recommend reading the user manual but it only tells you how to use the unit. Did it come with any software and what is it called?

The IGO appears to be s/w and you have one these supporting devices Nav N Go - Software Development for Mobile Devices

It is most likely to saves the track on the memory card which can be read by any card reader if you know the directory the file is kept. It is most likely in GPX format

If you are talking about loading OziExplorer check this link. You nead to download a file manager [ gsfinder] and put onto an sd card . Igo is the mapping software. I found it easier to just run a separate sd card for Ozi, to run strreet nav software just change card back

Some info from the manual

2.4.7 Track Logs
NavNGo iGO 8 can log the track that you drive (page 47).
A Track Log is a recording of how your GPS position changed and it is independent of the route NavNGo iGO 8 calculated.
Track Logs can be recorded, renamed, replayed, shown on the map, exported to a memory card in GPX format, and deleted. See page 71.
Independently of the normal track log, you can instruct NavNGo iGO 8 to record the native GPS data received from the GPS device. These logs are saved as separate text files on the memory card, and they cannot be shown or replayed in NavNGo iGO 8.

Recommend you read this manual http://www.navngo.com/content/langua...rManual_UK.pdf and it appears you need a memory card in the device
