Questions (MMC and cigrette plug)

[marc 2]

I am going to pick my TTN2 pack up tommorrow and was wondering if anyone could answer the following:



1, Can I use a 128mb multimedia card with TTN2 (instead of a SD card, which everyone on here seems to use)??



2, Can I use the GPS unit without plugging it into the cigrette lighter (i.e. when I am walking around) as I noticed the connection cable has an incar cigrette plug built in. ??



Cheers in advance

Marc, check out Peter's Aeroplane Review as he's toyed with several different power sources. The downside for a GPS mouse is certainly restricted to a power source, but there are other ways around it, but can be quite bulky.

Cheers again

Guys, if you're looking for the Leadtek battery thread, I've spliced this thread into two and the new thread is now in the GPS Guru's Forum in this thread.
