The model number at the bottom shows TomTom One (4N00.004.2) but this not the way it is listed anywhere.

after install TomTom Home here is "Update Device" some devices need update twice, after udate start your device and look your navcore version

* Tomtom One New Edition: 4N00.004 / 4N00.004.2 => SD card only+ GPS SirfStar III. receiver.
Recognized as ONE v3 in the HOME device information

The version of the device seems to be v.2

4N00.001 = TomTom V1 or "Original" TomTom
4N00.003 = TomTom V1 or "Original" TomTom
4N00.004.2 = TomTom V2
4N00.004 = TomTom New Edition
4N00.005 = TomTom V4 or TomTom LE or TomTom New Edition
4N00.012 = TomTom V4 or TomTom LE or TomTom New Edition
4N01.001 = TomTom 3rd Edition or TomTom V3
4N01.002 = TomTom 3rd Edition or TomTom V3

You are correct. This "number" is not used in day to day ops, but it helps us to help you.

You can use eg. 850.2782 / 850.2783 / 850.2792 / 855.2931 / 855.2957 with this navcore

how much you have free space sd-card after you remove old maps ??? and what map you want..

I think I'll buy a new SD 2 Gb card and download and and copy and install the europe map.
Someone told me I can only use until 2 Gb cards with this device, is this true ?
