Always a bit suspect when they pretend to sell something that is not available elsewhere. In this case the big writing would make me not want to touch the seller with a bargepole.

So it's not a TomTom (note it says "Tom" in the title) and is using PDA software on a PND device..

See the sellers name is "Carbadge" perhaps a misprint & it should be "Garbadge"
Looks like TT to me, is that legal ? |

| Not sure they are allowed to use TT software in this way. I'm sure TT would have something to say about it. |

That unit is running TomTom Navigator 7 intended for use on a PDA, in addition to a whole raft of illegally activated (cracked) maps it also contains one of the largest collections of custom voice files I have ever seen and the TomTom Speed Camera database - More than enough to prove its a sale of an illegal produst, there are plenty of other units the seller has listed as well.
The processor isn't even to the minimum spec recommended to run TTN 7, total waste of money it you purchase this device - Mike |

| Why not consider a decent app for your phone, a powered (active) mount for the car and a way to overcome the crap speaker in the iPhone, this way it's only a single device to carry around - Mike |
