Pre-planning and saving routes on a 510 / Rider ?

[njwc]

I'm flitting between getting TTN5 on a PDA or a getting a Go 510 or a Rider (I have an open car so the Rider appeals due to its weatherproofing)

One of the things I need to do is to pre-plan different routes, each with a number of waypoints, and then save them for future use. I know this can be done on TTN5 but can it be done on the 510 or Rider ?

Also, if I can save routes on the Go / Rider can I exchange then with other tomtom users, including those with TTN5 on a PDA ?

Yes, you can pre-plan routes on a 510/RIDER and you can share the .itn file with other TT users, although I'm not sure about cross-version exchange.

You can even make .itn files by planning the route in Autoroute and then converting it to .itn format. It makes the planning much easier on a big screen.

One thing about using a RIDER in a car; itdoesn't have a speaker, although there are ways around this which don't involve the wearing of the TT earbud.

Thanks for the replies I just have to decide whether to go for the simplicity and reliabilty of a Go versus the flexibility but (possibly) reduced reliability of a PDA.
