Following on from this I was in Tamworth area today, and on the m42 I went through some average speed cameras, between junction 9 and 10, I thought on the 1000 that mobile speed cameras were updated over the air.. They never came up on mine and if have a subscription should these not come up on their database.


SPECS aren't mobile cameras. 'Mobile' refers to coppers with handheld radar/laser or camera vans etc. Not temporary roadwork cameras.

Yep - give the man a coconut! Don't know why, though, as it was inevitable that we'd have them and TT wouldn't.

They have, but it might be on the horizon, as Speed Camera downloads were implemented today, so POIs could be only a few days away.

They are clearly already slipping on their PR announced schedule at the top of this thread though! Not impressed at all. It is a real shame, because the new hardware has a solid and well designed feel about it.

Are TomTom still using RoadAngel's camera database for Live services camera updates on these new units?

Was it my imagination, or did TomTom announce that 1000 would be able to run Apps written by third parties from a TomTom Apps Store?

If that's the case, when was the TomTom Apps Store due?

If the TomTom Apps Store ever became a reality, then PocketGPSWorld could investigate the possibility of producing a version of CamerAlert for TomTom units. Thumbs Up

semi-imagination... it was mentioned by tomtom that moving to webkit-based OS would allow app's to be installed easier. 99% of websites/papers etc assumed that meant an appstore akin to apple or android.

pretty certain tomtom denied this though. i think they were referring more to updates to their own software being easier to install.
