Hi all,
Ist visit here , all other posts on tomtom go forum so dont let the expert fool you, I know very little about tomtom mobile so would appreaciate a few answers. I have recently aquired a nokia 3230 and want to make it work with sat nav .

1. all all recievers the same, seen a few on ebay and all claim to be the best , do i need 16, 32 channell etc or does it not make a difference? Are genuine tomtom ones better ( these seem more expensive)

2. Was there tomtom software before tomtom 5 ? I saw one on ebay but he said it wasnt tomtom5.

3. Any other suggestions, where to buy this stuff, whats best etc.

Many thanks in advance

Mark

1. 20 channel SiRF III is currently the most performant

2. yes, there was TomTom Mobile 4. No longer supported though.

3. Get a large storage card.

Also, get an in car charger. TomTom will eat the battery on a 3230 whole 8O
