| On my 740 i get offered updates 3-4 times a week. However the frequency doesn't make up for the laughable inaccuracy.... |

My query is how often does TT updated the fixed camera database on the TT 1000 unit? I ve plugged my unit for the pass five weeks and it reorts back unit up to date - no updates. |
Never is the answer at the moment.
Currently the mechanisms for updating TT speed cameras on the GO 100x and VIA are one of the features marked as 'coming'.

Anyone know if the "over the air" mobile updates are actually happening yet?
I haven't noticed any indications that it has happened. |

| 1ee - This is the page you need to watch. I had a quick look earlier and mis-read the section on speed cameras and took it mean downloads had started. |

Good luck with that! I think they may play the 'it was free' card regarding the LIVE services sub included with the unit.

While I don't mind not having the updates for the cams - it's not a big issue for me - there is no such thing as a "free" offer when you buy something - it becomes part of the offer, so the seller has to honour their promise
But like Darren says, good luck with that one, and I doubt if it is worth the bother as HD traffic forms the greatest part of the renewal, so for the few pounds you could save, is it worth it? 
Especially if you should be able to load up your PGPSW cameras to it shortly...
