I have an Ipaq 2790 running TTN5.21.
I plan to go to the US next year in April and at some stage I will want to download maps of the various states I wish to visit.

My question is this.

If, for whatever reason I dont want to buy TT6 and I wish to download US maps at some stage and I havent upgraded how do I get TT5 US maps ?

This presupposes a certain fact (which may or may not be true) but for the purpose of the question and knowing TomTom history I will assume it to be accurate.

I won't be able to use TT6 maps onTT5 software

I have never seen a download for maps for anything other than current software. Is there a map download site for other versions of TomTom?

Your assumption is not entirely correct. Stay tuned.

Thanks for your prompt reply Lutz. I'm guessing now then, that in the new incarnation of TT6 it will be possible to use TT6 maps on TT5 software.

:D

Maybe, but helpful none-the-less - which is what it's all about.

Erm, how so? There are plenty of ads for the product now... it doesn't address the issue of V6 maps on Nav 5, which is the subject of this thread! Rolling Eyes
