I am currently looking at the new x10 range and i've noticed that the 910 says it will give instructions inc street names. i.e 'turn left on to space rd' is this feature only on the 910 or all the new x10 range.

Also can this feature be palced on to the older x00 range i.e 500 with a software update now or in the future V6.

Only that this feature is not realy new to satnav my mates meo 268 has always done this, I don't no why tomtom's have not always done this seems a simple step forward.

Have the new tomtom x10 got better security, I read something about pin protection on future V6 software are the new TomTom's already running this?. What if the person forgets his pin, are there any security measures in place by tomtom to recover the pin or something.

What's the difference in GPS accuracy between the old and new tomtom's i.e tomtom go within 10m tomtom go 910 within 5 meters

As To the Street Names,

I doubt they will be added to others in the range, the Speech Files take 4GB on the hard drive so it would be impractical,

As to them already being in use on other systems, yes they are but not in the quality used by TomTom, the voice system by loquendo is of human quality nothing like this has been on a satnav before

Check out http://www.loquendo.com/en/demos/demo_tts.htm for some good demos of the speech system used

Yes you can Pin Protect it, it has to be done by your PC so your PIN is stored on your home PC and can only be changed removed at that PC

As for the accuaracy! Should be no difference unless they are basing this on the SirfIII Chipset!

Hope that helps

Richard
