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.

Kind of; go into start, settings and gps, click on the big on button, and just leave it running whether or not TomTom is active. It'll just presumably drain the battery a bit quicker.

Has anyone managed to add the extra celebrity voices to thier machine, I just get the standard Jane and Tim ones even after installing mine.

Yes, no problem, are you putting them in the right folder, and including the 3 files needed.

I reckon this is a good price for this Windows Mobile 2003 PocketPC-based satnav.

Speed Cameras can be added easily.

You download the files and drop them into your maps folder.

No I have TomTom 6 running well.

Perhaps you need to remove the old version first in case it is conflicting.

thanks for replying - yeah have tried that several times - I have got the Version 6 to work once but then none of the maps worked - I will keep plugging away

Make sure you have the tomtom and voices folder on the memory card, they dont need to have anything in them they just need to be there they also are case sensitive I just cant remember if its upper or lowercase they need to be. All they do is force tom tom to look at the memory card for map folders.

also make sure you have the correct map for tom tom 6

Ahh thanks will try that
