    Thanks Withabix

    The Navman pin 570 rocks. :cool: :cool:

    Got our one today.

    Hubby spent 5 minutes in Halfords car park figuring it out. Stuck in our postcode and it guided us home. It was that easy. :beer:

    Quick question: can you play music _while_ using the SatNav software? I am thinking more specifically about TomTom6.

    Thanks in advance.

    probably so long as you launch the mp3 first, i reckon it'll continue
    I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove a thing! ;)

    I've got tomtom 5 running on mine.
    Does anyone know how you can activate the GPS when launching tomtom and deactivating it when closing rather than having to go into settings/system/gps to turn it on and off when necessary?

    P.S. Kingston 2GB SD card working fine with it.

    Can you recommend a 2GB card or will any brand do?

    Thanks

    You don't need 2gb for TomTom, 1Gb will do (in fact 512mb will do if just for TomTom), and might be easier to live with, mine was a bit troublesome when in the card reader.
