It might get tied into an email address that is yours, and could get complicated when he gets it.
And if you do anything at all, make sure you do a FULL BACKUP, using Windows Explorer, before you even install HOME or play with it. See #1 on the FAQs Page. _________________ Richard

TomTom bags are very expensive, and I've heard the "luxury" one is so tight, you can barely get it closed.
Once you've got it, take it to a camera shop or PC World as many of the cases for compact cameras or portable harddrives are the right size and can be much cheaper.
Personally I have three Nintendo DS games machine cases for all my TomToms.. they fit perfectly! |

Once he has it, he can change the email address to his own if he wants to. _________________ TT Go Essential |

Well guys i have ordered it so thanks im sure he will like it,I am now thinking about getting myself one to replace my go300.
Just a question about that website,Do you get a email from them when its dispatched?In my account its saying dispatched But i would like to track it.
I read my first email when i paid for it,In it its saying i will get another email when its dispatched,But ive had that before with other websites and ive never had a email. |

Similar, so far as I can see from the picture.
But mine were actual Nintendo "oficially licenced" ones from the highstreet shop "Game".
They come stuck to a card in several nasty colours as well as grey and black and if you're unlucky they will only have the ones with something like Super Mario embroidered on the front!
Mine are plain black and just had a "Nintendo" badge sewn on the front (the stitches unpick to leave no mark )
