at one time tomtom allowed 3rd parties to develop new software for their devices etc but this feature was removed when v7 of navcore was released... a shame really...

Do you mean a web browser, or a file browser?
The x20 models have a simple text and html file browser built in.
There was a third-party file browser that might still work (not tried it myself but many ad-ons still do) -

The recently announced x40 models support navigation to a list of locations downloaded from Google, so I guess it is only a matter of time before full web access is possible. |

and then they supply the help file/userguide as an adobe pdf. Why not an html searchable file Tomtom?  |

| Web browser... Seems to me the device, with its bluetooth connectiviity would make a great portable web client |
