Paul,

I can live without the MP3 player; I have a Pure Highway DAB (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pure-Highway-Car-Radio-Transmitter/dp/B0012GLXMU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1231422711& ...

Well, round and round in circles, and basically I can't justify expensive functionality, and the following 3 look like my short list:

Garmin Nuvi 265WT, 215T or 215W.

I'll have a look at some pr ...

TomTom Home is a .exe file. This is a M$ Windoze file format, so does not work on Linux.

Dennis/ Paul,

Thanks for your advice. I guess that's a fair point about all satnav's having deficencies. I'll have a look at the range you suggest.

I use Linux not Windoze, so updating a TomTo ...

Thanks for your help, Darren. From reading about the Navigator 9000, I really thought the mapping was updated, too. Their sales blurb says that all updates are done OTA and that you don't need to co ...

Ahh, this is just the camera updates, I was looking for mapping updates, too. Happy to subscribe, just can't use the HOME software.
Thanks,

Chris.

Darren,

Can you tell me more, this sounds perfect?

I have an old TomTom with an SD card, and that does mount as a drive. Any more advice would be really appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris.

Hi, all.

I wanted this because I use Linux on my PC at home, so can therefore not take advantage of updates mechanisms that run on Windoze, ...

Oldboy,

Should I be able to just download this and copy it across to my TomTom, like the previous upgrade?

Cheers,

Chris.

I only have a 128meg SD card. Do you know which the latest UK map is that I could squeeze on it, with the only other files being essential ones, that I need for a voice and running the TT? ...

My firmware is now 6.525, but my map is V3.90.

Anyone know what version map postcode searches started with.

Cheers,

Chris.
