Anyone checked out the TomTom app + cradle that is being released?

Looks a pretty good bit of kit, if you haven't updated your SatNav DVD in a while...

But I've broken quite a lot of toys in my time.....

Will be interesting to see what they do with the volume on the "revised" IPhone. If it is to supply clear concise road instructions, it will have to be a seriously beefed up speaker.......the current IPhone is rubbish and would be drowned out by an ant farting  L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

45 others have been and gone!

might be worth it just for the speed camera database

Complete change of subject i know but.....

Has anyone fitted a Parrot MK9200 system

It seems to have a Bluetooth system for the calls, (I dont have PTI) and a streaming system for the music in my iPhone.

AND

When iPhone goes to OS 3.0 it can then stream via bluetooth....I think it's a plan...

Comments/Suggestions welcome.

Parrot kit is excellent. I have one in the poxymobile and LR actually now use Parrot-based systems for the factory PTI

- 59p works pretty well on the 3g (gps) iphone.

Wait till you see the price of the TomTom kit for the iphone. My gut is that they won't risk cannablising their own hardware sales, so the number will be large. Maybe £100... Hope I'm wrong. 2022 P440e AB

i have a feeling the TomTom cost will be high too

My 3g iphone got an auto update this morning when I went to the iStore - changes that I have noted so far, changes to the keyboard layout for the symbols, the GPS(A) seem to be faster to upload the position (the last time I used this was in Singapore last week and it took ages to find out I was there today about 20 secs to find I wasn't sitting in my back garden but that is OK accuracy as I was only 10 feet away from where it said I was!), I also get a new field that says traffic info is not available in my area (surprise surprise!) I haven't sussed out the cut and paste function that is supposed to be available yet. Battery life is still p*ss poor........................... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Cut and paste is very easy - just swipe your finger over some text and options will show up

In case of the battery, I had mine changed two weeks ago due to crap battery - the new one is superb
