Forgive me if this is an FAQ (have done some searching..) but I've just installed the complete speed zoned + Liz voices warnings on my original GO.

Having used the consolodated by type for a few years (ie: Gatso, Mobile, etc) I decided to give the speed zoned ones a try.

I wonder if there was an easier way to set the warn-when-near prefs (ie: single file somewhere) than sit through typing "480 yds" etc into each and every POI on the TomTom?

Thanks,

Ashley

No easy short cut to this one - but once set-up you don't need to do it again, a database update replaces the POI files, but the warnings stay the same, think yourself lucky you don't have a 910 using the Text To Speech - setting that up takes ages Laughing - Mike

Thanks for that info Mike Smile

Indeed I found that once I'd set those prefs for my old cameras I just replaced the files each month without having to set them again - which will be the same if I choose to stick with the speed zoned version.

Have backed up both "versions" of my GO - just in case Smile

Cheers,

Ashley
