    As far as I know it has to be the specific version of Tom Tom called "TomTom Mobile". The usual versions TomTom Go/ 300/500/700 etc will not work, but I am sure there are better informed people than me about to give you the full lowdown later.

    I am not an expert, but I think he also needs a bluetooth SatNav receiver.

    I use my O2 XDA iis (SPV M2000) with TomTom and it's great.

    I believe there are some issues regarding Windows mobile 5 and Tom Tom compatability. It is surmountable but requires a degree of computer compitence. Best advice would be for a newer version of Tom Tom to come out in the next month or two. (I hope!)
