Yep by a mile from my experiences.Not sure what alternatives especially with the newer phones but you cant go wrong with either the 6630 or 6680 with tomtom.

I still use my trust 6630
problem is my contract is up soon, and they want to offer me a new phone.
Now with all the hassle you guy's are having with the newer Nokia's, I think I will just sell whatever new phone they send me, and continue with the 6630
Or is there a particular phone that you guy's would reccommend, N70 I think NOT

n70 with the latest firmware works well with tomtom, seems different networks have different firmware versions, none the less, I went to carphone warehouse today, and said i was having trouble with tomtom and n70, they ok we will flash the firmware to the latest version, then i told them the phone was thailand, they had blank looks, oh sorry we cannot (why because they get paid for it!!!) but they could have!!!!, i would have paid the .

The point is any phone under warranty can have a firmware upgrade if certain software is not working properly, ie the tomtom bluetooth connection, clearly a nokia fault. FREE of charge, and the centre i went to, was going to do it there and then (being widweek is good, weekends forget it).

So I contacted Nokia, and told them my issue, they said, I would have to take the phone back to thailand to get the firmware updated. what a complete load of gonads, why the hell did they say that??, i dunno, maybe because the phone was bought unlocked, and that i did not return the warranty card, who the feck does! so now i will have have send phone off and pay 15 squid for the upgrade of firmware.

Other than that I am really please with the phones overall performance.

and i repeat the phone works with the LATEST firmware (16th June) with tomtom
