According to tomtom's site, the update to 5.420 is recommended for all users with pre 5.420 software versions but does it actually do anything better than its predecessors? I haven't tried it yet but I'd be interested to know.

What does everybody else think?

JA

V5.420 has the ability to handle 39 Custom POI Catgories. V5.2x only had 27.

What's new in 5.420?

- It's even easier to start a Traffic trial on your device.
- After setting up TomTom Traffic, it is automatically enabled.
- Streets with the same name in towns that are close together are not confused in this version.
- The quality of the sound has been optimised when using hands-free calling (GO 500 and 700).
- Version 5.420 is compatible with more mobile phones.
- All entries in the phonebook, on mobile phones compatible with this feature, are now transferred to your TomTom device, no matter where they are stored.
