Forum: Beginners GPS Lounge Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 3:00 pm Subject: Perhaps an answer to my own question |

2. the latest TT devices omit POIs such as our dearly loved Pocket ... |

Forum: TomTom Portable Navigation Devices Posted: Fri Dec 21, 2007 9:56 pm Subject: quality of TMC reception? |
Can I ask my usual question regarding the new 920: does the TMC reception work properly? I was warned off getting this for my 910.
I don't suppose it's been improved for the 910 by now, has it?
