this looks like a great app as long as you dont need your tom tom as it looks like this is a standalone app correct me if im wrong
i managed to load the speedcam database on tom tom on my iphone 3g it works perfect

The TomTom iPhone app doesn't support warnings though so its a little pointless unless you know different?

CamerAlert is a standalone camera warning system using this web sites database - Mike

Unfortunately it is still a key failing of iPhone SatNav software that no-one has pulled together a decent navigation program, with good traffic information and the PGW database.

Perhaps though with the high visibility of the database on the app store (getting higher by the minute!) PGW will be approached by a forward thinking software company?*

*Of course Nav Mii has the PGW database, but AFAIK it cannot be updated, and it doesn't have a traffic facility.

To be fair, it can be updated, lacks traffic though. Currently update is only by app update which is far from perfect but they are looking at a better system for updating our cameras.

But yes, it would be nice if Navigon could be persuaded, that's my current fave.
