I have TT XL IQ routes 2
I'm finding TT Home very limited when planning routes ie no access to my POI and Favourites. It also comes up with a message that the device may not follow the route you've planned!!! So that rather counteracts planning a route in the first place!!!
Ok if you use control My Device you then have access to POI and Favourites but stuck with a screen size hardly larger than the TT.
In the past I've used GPS utility and Ozie Explorer with a Garmin Etrex Has anyone experience using these programs with TT. I also use QUO with the Etrex, so it would be good to be able to use the QUO maps as an intergrated system. But I have no idea how to do this or even if its possible |

TYRE, downloadable free here, allows you to plan your route on your pc using Google Maps, and then upload it to your TomTom. _________________ Anita

If you are online, try a web search for "Houghi Script". Using GoogleMaps to plan a route it creates an itinerary file which you transfer to your TT. _________________ Garmin Nuvi 2599
