Officially its not very many devices at all, mainly HTC mobile phones based upon the PPC concept, a couple of Axim units and one or two HP products.
To be honest the list i have is so out of date most of the devices on it will be obsolete by now or certainly difficult to purchase new. The whole concept of limiting the devices it can officially run on has made most people turn to other software vendors such as Sygic or even Garmin, both of whom produce very good usable car based nav software to run on most if not all PDA's, those that haven't moved to another supplier have either used hacked code to force it to work on a different device or purchased a standalone nav unit - Mike |

|
|
Hi,
Like i've posted in other topics, TT7 would seem to me to run on anything!! Why do I say this? Well, I've had it running fine on an old iPaq 2210 with WM2003, and on a iPaq hx2190 running WM5. So from these two I can assume it will run on any iPaq, and any WM platform!! |

The simple answer is: offically No, Unoffically yes. _________________ Moto G5s Plus, Sygic 17.4.8 |

There is no such thing as WM7 WM or windows mobile finished at 6.5.
M$ then switched to a nee platform which is windows phone or WP7 this uses a different operating system so a wm product will not work on WP
If you want something more upto date have a look at copilots lastest version or even igo or mapfactor ttn7's maps are so far out of date by now I would look for a newer solution _________________ currently using aponia truck navigation on windows phone.

TTN7 Maps are not so far out of date even compared to current Tomtom or other Teleatlas maps, I still use TTn7 and the main problem i find is teleatlas problem in not updating 8 year old major road changes even on current maps. _________________ Moto G5s Plus, Sygic 17.4.8 |

That's interesting I have seen various WM7 Rom's listed for my Axim from user groups so I presume they are just WM6.5 that has been modified by the user groups.
I upgraded to WM6.1 as I was told it is the most stable & least memory hungry version.
The only reason I was looking at TT7 is I want software to run on my PDA which was the original reason I bought it.
I have TT Navigator 6.1 installed at the moment.
Thanks for all the replies. |

I think you will find that pre-release WM7 was touted as windows mobile 7 but subsequently Microsoft called it Windows Phone 7 or even just Windows Phone I believe, perhaps this caused the confusion. _________________ Moto G5s Plus, Sygic 17.4.8 |

I am running TTN7 on My asus for main usage and it runs perfectly, i believe the Axim has a slightly faster Processor so should run well, although I cannot remember all the changes from ttn6 i do believe it ran faster and i beleive their was quite a few improvements over ttn6. _________________ Moto G5s Plus, Sygic 17.4.8 |
