In dread of TomTom 3 not delivering the goods

[DavidM]

Mulling over the options and contemplting what I will change to if TomTom 3 does not deliver the goods in the new release - whenever that is - obviously in the last year there have been some really good software releases (and some really bad ones - roundabaouts as a hot topic springs to mind) - so I compiled a list of what my "ideal navigation software" would contain - I was hoping that users of software other than TomTom could comment on whether these features are in the software that they use for their Pocket PC and how it performs - also I would be interested in any "pet hates" of the software that you are using;

So heres the list

PC/LapTop based trip planner
Borderless routing or Auto Map Stitching
Customizable Display (I like TomTom's "Navigator" Display)
European Coverage
Voice Instructions
POI Import
Speed Camera Warnings (I currently use Checkpoint for TomTom and am very happy with that)
"Avoid This Area" Feature
Fast Route Calculation
Fast Route Recalculation
Intelligent replanning if I choose to leave the route
Nice UI - the simplicty of TomTom is ideal for me

David,

I have testet and tried nearly every PPC navigation product.

To have all your wishes fulfilled you should combine 2 of the best products ( unfortunately that is not possible)

ROUTE 66 Navigate - For PC/LapTop based trip planner
ROUTE 66 Navigate - Borderless routing or Auto Map Stitching
TomTom 3 - Customizable Display (I like TomTom's "Navigator" Display)
ROUTE 66 Navigate - European Coverage
BOTH - Voice Instructions
TomTom 3 - POI Import
TomTom 3 - Speed Camera Warnings (I currently use Checkpoint for TomTom and am very happy with that)
N/A: only roads not area's - "Avoid This Area" Feature
ROUTE 66 Navigate - Fast Route Calculation
ROUTE 66 Navigate - Fast Route Recalculation
ROUTE 66 Navigate Intelligent replanning if I choose to leave the route
TomTom 3 - Nice UI - the simplicty of TomTom is ideal for me

Thanks for your answer - so assuming I cannot use two - are you recommending ROUTE 66 Navigate as an alternative to TomTom
