I just saw the European edition is now back on the app store at £59.99

So who's going to be first to give it a spin?

I note that it supports resume of navigation from a call. No mention of custom PoI support though...

Well I have it downloading but the purchase was a little strange.

I had previously bought this and due to the silly 8003 error message I was given a full refund of the purchase price, tonight I clicked the purchase option and I was shown this:

(Honest I pressed the Cancel Button - NOT)

Following a full download of the 1,81GB files and the time taken to install the application and maps I still haven't had any e-mail confirming a purchase from iTunes (They are usually very quick) - Could this be a freebe or yet another colossal cock-up with the release of this application?

If its a freebie then thankyou very much, its first real long distance run will be on Wednesday when I head from Blackpool to Ashford - London and back home - Mike

looks like some sort of technical clerical error due to your refund processing ! Either way im sure there not botherd about giving freebies to a few people who originally bought it and had to wait for a refund from apple.
Ps. my apple recipts usualy arent instant there more like a day or so later!

Glad to see its downloading at least! My Apple reciepts don't come through for around 48 hours either. If as you're getting MIke, its thinking its an update as you already purchased, you don't get a receipt. Did you get one from your original try with the 8003 error?

Either way, hope to see a review before I buy. Is Darren up late?

Cheers, Mike

I did get a receipt when I bought it the first time, I also have e-mails and credit note etc from Apple when it all went wrong, this time its downloaded and installed and its working, still no e-mail Laughing

I am just going out to have a play around with the application in the car for the first time.

Darren might be having breakfast by the pool as its holiday time so whether its a late start or not it doesn't matter as here is little internet access where he is from what he mentioned the other day.

As for it being a TT killer application, this isn't something that you can make a decision on unless you have used both applications, as TT have still not released their application its too early to make that sort of call - Mike

Are you planning to do a review Mike?

As I said last night its first decent outing will be on Wednesday/ Thursday when it gets a good 750+ mile run, only then will I have an idea as to what its like, having just had 15 minutes in the car so far its not bad although the poor speaker in the iPhone makes it difficult to hear unless I use the BT Audio link to me car.
Re-routing calculations are fast and the user interface is intuative makng it nice and easy to use, I will post up some notes on Thursday but if anyones got any specific questions please feel free to ask - BTW the GPS reception seems better than when running Navigon - I know thats bizarre as its the same iPhone, but it seems happy to run this whereas it stuggles to get a position lock with the other application - Mike

Hi Mike
Sorry to rush you - waited a long time for this! Does it have full 7 digit post code search?

can you input a space on the postcode after the 1st 2 digits of number as my Garmin does?

Thanks, Mike

Indeed using the space gives you the ability to add the third numeric to be entered - Cheers for that - Mike
