Nothing to do with me

TomTom have released a new satnav product, at a very competitive price:

Tom, are you going to get the ver3 u/g?
Doesn't look like there is much added, other than some new icons and Europe major roads (no use to me).

Its only cheap yuck, I'll be getting it mostly for the minor map upgrades. It also has a trip overview option, so you can see quickly if its taking you to about the right place. The postcode search is now supposedly functional, but only for the first four digits. Still, its a start.

I wonder if I could sell the old v2 software when I upgrade? Perhaps if I get a new serial number.....

Still no M6 Toll though, which is a real downer.
I usually find the postcode using autoroute then enter the details in to TT.
Mostly I plan my next day the night before, that way I know how early I have to get up

BTW Yuck, there are some new voices on the tomtom site:

I've ordered version 3, might let you have a.....ahem.....go of it (pm me).

oh, and this site http://poiplace.oabsoftware.nl/index.php ROCKS.

Nice new voices, the new female UK files will be getting downloaded. I was playing with the idea of recording my own, Mrs Yuck being the voice. I decided against this as she always gets lost
Apparently we were in St Helens once, when in fact we were in Lytham St Annes!
I've been "on the road" for the past two weeks, so I'll check the reviews of TT3, if it's any good I'll purchase. Thanks for the "trial" offer though

seriously. just thank *god* you weren't really in st. helens. its a dump!
