TomTom's map servers are not the fastest at the best of times.
When a new map is announced, you can imagine the 100's, maybe 1000's of users trying to download maps at the same time. This slows the download speed even more.

Pity that the Maps for sale on SD card are still on v880.

It took me only 37 mins to do the download on a standard BT Broadband line, so quite happy with that. All installed without a hitch.
Thanks to David aka dhn for pointing it out in the first place. |
Lucky you! Just taken 6hrs 30mins to download and install Europe v900.4602 map and USA V900.4602 + a few bits a pieces such as speed cams and postcodes on my GO950Live. Thats on Virgin 10Mps.

Lucky all of you to even get it!! I have a map update sub to May 2013, but have no new map to install. Trying to get any sense out of TT support is like bashiing my head against a brick wall

| There is a problem with the update for Via 120's. Phone TomTom support and they will make the Europe map available to you which overcomes this. They were very helpful and phoned back! |
