Hi Dave (and the rest of the community)
Having finally got the 4.1 upgrade working after much wailing and gnashing of teeth, I get the normal prompt when I start TomTom which shows a list of trusted BT devices. This is fine unless I don't have the BT GPS to hand and want to use the 'Plan from A-B' menu option. Even with BT on the Palm switched off, the menu then forces you to switch it on and pressing 'Cancel' when the list of devices is shown has no effect.
Any idea how to disable this annoying feature?
Cheers

So you've managed to get TomTom Palm running on a Palm OS 4 ? I tried with a Tungsten T2 but the device kept locking up on install. I'm surprised you got that far on OS 4.1. T3 works nice though. |

It certainly does but the install was totally hit and miss. I ended up buying an SD card reader so I could see what was on there. I did the install as recommended by TomTom and as usual, when the GB map gets a quarter way through loading, the whole thing hangs. So exit the install, take the SD card out of the T3, put it in the card reader, and load the map that way. 4.1 does seem to be more stable.
Now, if I could only sort this annoying Bluetooth thing out........
Cheers

I think there's some confusion in this thread.
I can't see Navigator for Palm installing on Palm OS 4.1 - especially as Palm OS 4 machines don't use ARM processors. I think what's being talked about is the reissue of the Navigator for Palm software, which has the version number 4.10. TomTom are very careful to call it "TomTom Navigator 4.10 for PalmOS", but if you move the version number to the end, you can see how confusing this gets!
I believe TomTom only recommend the Tungsten T3 and Tungsten C for the Palm OS version of Navigator, though maybe they've added more machines now.

Quite right and well spotted although I'm no further forward with getting this issue sorted.
