After deciding to get a XL IQ refurb after you guys' great advice from these forums up pops the XL IQ Edition2. Is this really worth the extra £40? Can you still put on your on POIs on this new device? Any reviews out there?

Thanks

Not seen one yet. (the XL2 that is)

As it has TTS it is a 'higher' spec BUT the marketing blurb says it has simplified menus which is a tad concerning as the only other device with simplified menus is the START - search the forum and make your own mind up about the menus on the START.

POIs can be enabled, but I believe you have to do a custom menu to get to the options to enable warning sounds etc.

Thanks. I have ordered a XL refurb and I dont want this new simplified menu system and I dont like the Start's interface. Hopefully TT will ship it soon Smile
