As you know, Dennis, I don't use the handsfree feature on my 720, but I'm still concerned about it because I've bought my son and his fiancee a 520 between them for Xmas and their birthdays (both in January). He has a 500 at the moment, and uses the handsfree a lot, so he won't be happy if it doesn't work as well on the 520. But Catherine might be happy, as she'll get to use the new 520 instead of the old 500 if he doesn't like it!
(He will be less satisfied with the 520 speaker compared with the 500). What you're saying is you've suddenly thought of a super idea to stop some girlie running off with your ickle boy! Break up the relationship by stealth. We all know you're bright, but few, if any, of us realised you were that bright.
Note to self. Don't let Anita meet Vera.
The trouble is #6 does annoying echo for the caller in hands free (I have a last persuaded Vera to tell me if the call is lousy quality - she was being tactful, but I've told her if customers don't like my phone calls, they won't phone me). So after swapping them back and forth, I'm going to stay with #7 for the phone for the time being and see if it repeats itself. I wonder if having it turned up to 100% volume has any bearing. I don't use the MP3 feature. I do wish TT could make it transmit phone calls to the FM radio, then I could use the tranny (steering wheel remote control) to deal with all my volume troubles and let the TT run at lower power. _________________ Dennis

That's a shame.
Or maybe not. I find it really hard work holding a conversation when he phones using the TomTom. Maybe it will force him to go back to using a bluetooth headset, which is much clearer and, of course, doesn't have the problem of not hearing what's being said if you both start to speak at the same time.

Not such an ickle boy at 35! And he chose a Cape Town girl instead of a Sussex girl, so I've already invested £2,000 on a trip to South Africa for the wedding in March, so they'd better not call it off!

Fingers crossed #7 doesn't play up again. You've certainly had your share of problems.

I'd like to be meeting both of you tomorrow, but had already made other arrangements. I could have picked up one of your hand-crafted reset tools, but it's not worth paying extra for delivery!
Hope you all have a really good time tomorrow. _________________ Anita

Just fancy - I've delivered to Brighton twice recently - Thursday last week and again today! (It's only about £82 for delivery) (oh, plus VAT). _________________ Dennis

That's a shame, but it would be quite a detour from Brighton. I'm almost as far east as you can go in Sussex before getting into Kent. Now if you were delivering to Rye or Hastings you'd be much closer. But I expect he'll be needing the hand-crafted reset tool before you do that! _________________ Anita

Nothing worse than a TomTom that repeats.
Dennis should know. He's had enough of them Perhaps he's too aaard on them. Unless he's sold all his Halfords shares before he makes them go broke with all his dodgy TomToms
