Carminat Upgrade?

Hi!
So I bought my van over a year ago, i've had no end of trouble trying to sort out the Carminat system (originally wasn't given the sd card, picked one up from the dealership, 2gb card, tried updating, ended up formatting etc etc). Gave up some time ago.
Finally sat down to try and sort it out once and for all and discover i need a remote control for it.
It looks like I need to buy maps, a bigger sd card and a remote.
I was thinking if I'm going to be spending a bunch of money on it, would i be better off just upgrading to a newer unit? If so, is there a touch screen version that will fit in a 2012 renault trafic?
Any help would be massively appreciated!
Thanks gang!

If it doesn't work (No maps found) you will have to buy a map - Don't be tempted to go to e-bay, the maps from there won't work as they are locked to the device they were installed on.
Europe map from TomTom here (shockingly expensive I'm afraid and because it is in stock, it will be an old version. The updates will be cheaper.)....

For remote control, look at the links here (important you MUST get the bluetooth one)....
