USA Maps for TomTom PDA

bommel · Occasional Visitor Joined: Feb 28, 2005 Posts: 1

Are there any USA-maps for TomTom 3 for IPAQ? I have the map for version 2, but I can't find USA-maps for v3. Is there a trick tot use the version 2 maps on TT3?

We are planning to go on fly/drive :D holiday in the states, so we would be very happy with a solution.

I'm also planing a trip to the USA, and wanting to know the cheapest place to buy the map for the USA (namely FL).

I have TT3 Bluetooth, on a HP5550.

I've seen some for sale on ebay (http://stores.ebay.com/Globaltech-Innovations) - but I'm not sure if it will work or not.

Any comments?

Hi,

Does anyone know if TomTom 2004 USA & Canada maps will work with my TTN 3.

I've seen it on the TT site but the cost seems a little high 189 euros (£130).

And I've also seen it on ebay - http://stores.ebay.com/Globaltech-Innovations/ - $145.00 (£75.00)

As you can see there's a major price diff, so I want to check if they are the same thing...

Can anyone help?

Personally, I did some soul searching on this matter myself and I came to the conclusion

Invest £50 in Mapopolis USA maps. Not 3D, not the greatest voice, not the most intuitive interface, but it is cheap and fast!

You can even try a UK map before you go as well to see if it works on your setup.

I do not know if Globaltech-Innovations are authorized retailers for Tom Tom.

But the price seems close to what Tom Tom sell it themselves ($149 at Tom Tom changing language to american english).

I've just returned to the UK from 2 weeks in the Orlando area using the following setup :
iPAQ 2210, Leadtek BT9537 receiver,TTN3.03 with GPS v3.07 & the TTN Maps of the USA & Canada 2004.
Apart from occasional confusion in the Navigator caused by missing roads (i.e. maps not right up-to-date), it worked very well, particularly with warnings about which lane to be in for exits. With overtaking on either side on the major roads, this was a real boon. It was also useful occasionally for avoiding the frequently congested signposted routes to the major tourist attractions, by using quieter secondary roads.

I want to buy a package of this myself.

Is there any web-shops with good who have this on stock i Europe.
