I don't know if it's been answered anywhere else but does V3 PPC version have sliders in the routing options or is it just quickest/shortest like previous versions. |

Sounds just like V2 where it doesn't do anything.
Its very misleading to have a play button when it doesn't play. |

I've found it quite common with teleatlas maps. Another good one is on the East Cross Route between leyton and bow heading into the city just before the small tunnel. As it happens its on the opposite ... |

This thread does remind me of the dissapointment i had with navman's attitude wh ... |

Sounds like an improvement over V2. You say that you can make the adjustments and view the route before starting off but does it deviate from this route when you come to drive it which V2 always seeme ... |

I originally had a navman 3000, then upgraded to V1.91 of smarst then onto V2 (GPS4410) also because of the european maps and cross country routing.
I also liked the receiver because of the standard ... |

I prefer the navigator screen on the Navman myself but prefer the TOMTOM interface as the large buttons of TT makes it much easier to use while driving whereas the buttons on the Navman are too small. ... |

Stingray, set the port to NMEA 0183v2 57600, Bluetooth Serial Port COM8
but make sure you load the maps onto the CF card (if you've got one). I had all sorts of lockups using the SD card on the same ... |

As you say the move to teleatlas was a big step backwards. The 1.91 maps were far more accurate than V2 ones.
As far as i know they did it for cost reasons and it shows - you get what you pay for !. ... |

That is impressive - Reminds me of my dear old Navman, Especially if you reverse the route. Must all be one-ways in Norway. |

Usually the route provided this way is pretty good, just be prepared to ignore a lot of instructions on the actual journey when it deviates from it a lot. What i now do is create favourites between my ... |

looking at the URL my guess is that although the software is for a ppc it's tied to the 3000 series (like earlier versions of smarst) and probably doesn't support bluetooth. Looking at it cynically yo ... |
