|
|
Hey all, I own the TT5 pda software and I have been on the fence about upgrading to TT6 for my pda. The feature that would get me to upgrade would be if the software spoke street names and exit number when on-router to a destination. I sold my old stand-along gps (navman icn520) and have a garmin nuvi 370 on order but I would be tempted to update my tomtom if this feature is included with the latest TT6 version and maps.
Thanks for any info.

Unfortunately what you want is part of Text To Speech, and this is only available on the TT910. _________________ Richard

Cancel your Nuvi 370 and order a Nuvi 660. That does text to speech and it's brilliant!!

Doug and oldboy, thanks for your input. I'll keep away from the TT6 upgrade for now. I want the nuvi 370 since it ships with both maps of the USA and Europe in it. I live in the states but I have family in the UK and will be visiting them frequently so maps of everywhere is what I need. I tested a nuvi 360 and it does had the text to speech option and was everything I want in a external gps unit. Small, compact, blue-tooth, but it only ships with maps of the USA installed. I would love to go for the 660 but I'm afraid the finance committee, aka my wife, would not go for the extra cost ..
Thanks again.
