It could be the SD Card causing the problem. Some SD cards are very slow on address lookup. I had that problem and moved the maps to my CF card and now it flies... I think V3.07 of TomTom does improve things, but first I'd try a different SD card if you can.

Sandisk are notoriously bad for use with TomTom and a 2210. I have one in my digital camera and it works fine, but use it in the PDA and it's slooooow. Most others are fine - there are lots of threads on this forum about what cards to use and what to avoid - do a bit of searching and you'll find some good answers.
