I have just downloaded v7.161 on my GO700 and have had a look at the new feature "Help Me" When I ask for nearest Doctor it gives me a list on main land europe. Same for Dentists. Hospitals and Garages are OK. Is there another file I should be downloading or what? Rolling Eyes

For some reason, TomTom have not offered those for download yet.
Considering that will be the FIRST new feature people try when they install the new software, I'd be surprised if they haven't been inundated by requests for them.
Email them and complain...

Emailed them this morning. Also complained about there not being a software switch to turn off max speed limits as these seldom apply to trucks and or busses. Therefore the GPS is giving false or misleading imformation.

Thanks for all your help guys......

On the XL, this is under "Preferences" | "Status bar preferences". On the second page unclick "Show max speed next to speed". Don't know if the Go700 has this setting.
