As title..I reported a "no entry" that was missing to Teleatlas when I had ttn3 which was not corrected until ttn6 650 . I have now a c500 with 660 maps and I am now routed through the no entry again ..

Have seen on another forum that the Western Europe 675.1322 NavteQ is the most up to date specifically for UK, whilst the WE 675.1409 from Teleatlas has better, more up to date, coverage in a few european countries.
Anyone had the opportunity to directly compare the two?
Having seen the 675.1409 it certainly has better coverage in East Anglia than 660.1219!

| To confuse you V660 1322 is Navteq and V675 1409 is Teleatlas and in my area V660 is more update than V675 and I have no doubt that in other areas the it may be the other way round, To confuse you even more their is also V660 1223(presume teleatlas but not sure) and V675 1322 (Navteq) and as you can apreciate I would expect it to be extremely difficult to compare any one to the any other, so it is probably wise to suggest that you just take Pot Luck. hope this helps but i doubt very much. |

Now that does suprise me as Garmin who use Navteq maps have had this turning correct for several past versions of their navigation software.

660.1219 was 660.1223 stripped of the data that tt6 can use but tt5.21 couldn't, essentially making a new map compatible with the older 5.21.
This enabled users of pda's with slower processors to access the newer maps. No change in map data but road speed limit info and average speed data removed.
If you have tt6 use 1219 not 1223.
Hope the fog clears, well a little!

And other vital info by the look of it, like "No Entry"

I think this is the wrong way round. 1219 doesn't work with tt5. 1223 works with both tt5 and tt6. I don't know if it has any data missing or how to find out.
I got 1219 by mistake when I was using tt5 on an unsupported device (iPAQ 3715) for tt6 and had to get the map changed. I've now downloaded tt6 anyway and the 1223 map still works.

How strange is this?: my 2210 with uk ie mrowe v6.75 1409routes correctly for this junction but a friends Go Classic (software version 6.15) with the same map version numbers routes through the "no entry"
Perhaps some kind soul with a Go could plot a route from Usk to Coleford (fastest) to see if it gives a right turn accross the river wye instead of going futher up the A40 to a RA and back down the other side and then turn left over the Wye??
Thanks
Dave

Hi
I've seen the Western Europe 675.1322 map and it is the most up to date for Teesside i've seen. It Has the new Interchange on it for the A66/ cargo fleet Lane junction near the Middlesbrough Riverside Statium.
cheers |

I have a new GO720 and an "old" GO710 with five maps. Here you are ...
GO720, Map Western Europe v705.1480 - Turns right off the A40. WRONG!
GO710, Map Western & Central Europe v675.1409 - Turns right. WRONG!
GO710, Map Western Europe v675.1409 - Turns right. WRONG!
GO710, Map Western Europe v660.1219 - Turns right. WRONG!
GO710, Map Western Europe v650.1047 - Goes up to the roundabout and back to turn left. RIGHT!
GO710, Map Western Europe v606.0 - Goes up to the roundabout and back to turn left. RIGHT!
So, the four most recent maps I can lay hands on all (including the two "Most Recent" which I am using right now) negotiate the Monmouth turn wrongly. The maps which are more than a year older apparently do it correctly. (I do know that junction first hand, by the way). So far as I know, all the maps are TomTom's issues of TeleAtlas maps.

I'm glad I've got Western & Central Europe v650.1052 then.
You see Dennis, sometimes the older 'thingies' are better.
