Who is your mobile phone service contract with and is it contract or Pay As You Go? - these are needed to answer your question - Mike

For a start you can forget using O2 Pay As You Go it simply will not work with the TomTom server, there is some information with respect to PAYG sim cards Here
I would phone vigin up using the mobile and get them to activate the GPRS connection for your device, they will then send the required settings to your phone, make sure you state Full Internet over GPRS otherwise you might only get the WAP service and that doesn't do what you want - Mike
