Speed camera detectors in france

I have an Inforad v4e Speed camera warning device.

The AA website states that any form of radar detector is totally illegal in France. The Inforad is, in my opinion, simply a GPS unit with camera locations installed. Can you please confirm that the Inforad is legal to use in France?

If it can detect the use of radar or laser it is very illegal in france. If it merely tells you the locations of fixed radar traps it is legal.
