It seems to work on the Nokia 6630 with similar internal phone memory and separate memory card.
Nils you have used the TomTom solution on the SE; did it work seamlessly for you? Are you even allowed to answer this question?!
Thanks

Man, can't wait to finally have some on-board navigation for my p910!

@Nils: What time do you estimate is realistic for TomTom to appear on the shelves?

And you said you tested them both - which one (and why) do you prefer - Route66 or TomTom?


Cheers

It's a bit slow on a P910, staring up and everything (route66 is faster).
The UI of Route66 is the same as the phone so same scroll menu's etc.
TomTom has it own UI (6 main icons) which looks better but is slower.

TomTom will only be for the P910i, R66 for the whole range!
They (R66) will solve it with maps of countries splitting in to 2 or more sectors, you can edit it with a pc which maps you want to use. (example: UK: UK south, mid and north).

I cannot say which one is better, didn't test at the same time and both were beta versions!

I only know that R66 will be in the shops within several days!

We have more (on the link on page 1 somewhere) but our site has been hacked. + the webhost forgot to put a backup system on their new server (were the website was for several days) so we try to put it up as soon as possible!
