hi all, hi NILS7, a few question about tomtom and P910 , please answer if you can: (sorry for the repost)
1) the P910 CPU is fast enough for Tomtom? examples of slowdown routing? (i use now a ppc asus 620bt for tomtom and my smart P910 for all other stuff, and i think the P910 is a little bit slow : i don't like to see: turn right in 150 mt ... when the turn is 5 mt ... , what your experience? )
2) i use sometime tomtom mobile for nokia 6600, symbian os and he work like a charm: same experience on P910?
3) is possible to use tomtom on P910 in landscape mode?
TIA

Please try to post TomTom questions in the TomTom topic 
1) It doesn't have any lag... it would be more shocking-wise than a lag if you might experience any problems.
2) Yes but it is more like the PocketPC version but with series60 icons.
3) Yes |

Cheers to jcwhite_uk who pointed me in the direction of this link and locked out my other one but I had tried a search but unfortuantely had no luck.
anyways, does anyone know if there would be any problem with getting a copy of the Route 66 software for a P900 from someone and using another brand of GPS receiver? Does the software come with an activation code and can it be used more than once?

most likely you cant do that.cos its illegal and nav software makers tend to do what they can to stop it.

Just thought I would post this response I had from Route 66 Customer Support when I asked about the compatibility of the P900 and route 66 2006 that Expansys are selling on their site
"Dear Sir,
Unfortunately the Sony Ericsson P900 will not be compatible with the upcoming product. Please consult our web site www.66.com for details.
Kind regards,
ROUTE 66 Customer Support"
Hows about that for a kick in the teeth from Expansys. I am going to E-mail them with this to see what they say.

I have just received this back from Expansys regarding the compatibility of the Route 66 Mobile Britain 2006
"Hi
It seems that we have listed all of the P series and some are not compatible. Please go by Route 66's advice.
Regards
eXpansys"
Oh well i had better cancell my order with Expansys and wait for a P900 version unless Wayfind is any good? |

Just seen the new price. theyve got a big fat cheek. They should be paying us for the time weve had to wait for this product after they said that it was only 7 days waiting.
I am sure that if you ordered it at the lower cost price then they cannot charge you more for it. Anyone agree with me on this? |

if you look? the price is up because it is the europe version, not the britain version that is out on the 21st june. bigger memorystick?, more maps. |

Actually they probably can since you are not actually ordering the product and only placing a pre-order. Since no contract of sale has been formed they can do whatever they like - afterall you haven't been charged.
I think Expansys even state on their site that when placing a preorder you will be contacted when they have availability to confirm whether you want to proceed.

As I have an order confirmation with Cost price and it doesnt state about changes they would have had a fight on their hands but if its for the European version then i dont mind to be fair. |
