Indeed, http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00CL9UMKG and sold by Amazon so not just some dodgy person putting up the link. |

Cosmetic? It's not like TomTom to bring back features they've dropped, like audible audio.

The way TomTom improvements have been going - you also need to ask what your 1005 does that the new ones don't - sounds like Thirdparty POIs seem missing

It also says it connects via a smartphone; I thought x000s had the built-in sim?

The 'always connected' DO have sim cards (such as the 6000).
The 400, 500 and 600 need tethering via a mobile phone.

| They've now changed it to the Always Connected one rather than the Connected via SmartPhone.. It seems to be correct now - The 000 series are always connected with SIMs in and 00 series are connected via SmartPhones I think |

I assume a few around here have got some new models for testing? But they can't possibly say they have.
