PostForum: TomTom Software-Only Products   Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2003 10:39 am   Subject: PDA Backlight Question
IMO:

1) On my desk when the power is left on to my PDA I like the backlight to turn off after a while (I'm normally not looking at it, and don't want to wear out the bulb!) In the car I'd like it ...

In a perfect world I'd rather TT had options to force the backlight to stay on, and more importantly to be able to turn it down in 'night mode' - I've never seen the point of changing the colours when ...

A5 between Shrewsbury and Owestry has a nice new bypass around Nesscliffe. Using multimap this shows at the Collins route planning scale, but not on the OS 1:50000 scale or the TeleAtlas detail view.

In principle you can do this - as you mention all you should need is a GPS that does not need a car 12V to run (e.g. compact flash type powered by PDA, or perhaps bluetooth type with internal battery) ...

I also bought two cds, but liked it so much I bought another one as well. Once you've loaded everything (software, 1:50k 1/4 map, lowscale whole country maps) from one CD all you need from the others ...

On my system the GPS has to be physically connected (or rather inserted as it is a CF card) otherwise I see this error message. It does not need to have a valid position, or even a sig ...
