Use serial cable on SP2 and Navigator GPS and it works a treat.

Has anyone had a problem entering street addresses? Please see this topic in posts to beginers lounge. I think Diplo may be right and the cut down(?) navigon doesn't like the tele atlas mapping. This is my first gps purchase and I wonder if I will be lost in France next year

I'll head over to the beginners lounge in a mo but in the meantime i've had no problem entering street addresses. Pretty much first time every time i get what i'm looking for..

On the other hand i managed to borrow a friends Ipaq with Tomtom3 and whilst i liked the interface and the routing functions (avoiding certain rounds and route recalc) i found it a bloody nightmare to find the streets i was after.

If someone would write some software with the interface of TomTom and the functions/ease of use of Navigon they'd be onto a winner.

I meant to mention that aswell Dice... (i've had a few beers now Embarassed

)

Routing in Tomtom3 is appauling... I'd let it work out a couple of routes for me when i know full well where i'm going. It seems to take you some very odd routes and if you ignore the route and take a wrong turn to follow a route you know to be good it's recalc'd routes are shocking.

As i say...interface looks a lot smarter and is easier to use with the big buttons. Anything else and give me Navigon.
