Seen a few saying TomTom 6 doesn't work. Any feedback otherwise?

like i said on my-symbian, there is not logic reason for it not to work, specially because it works on W950...my guess is people that are reporting it does not work, just don´t know how to install it...anyone that used Tomtom on UIQ3 knows a instalation process is a bit "special", unlike all other UIQ3 apps

Thanks ares I "know" how to install tomtom on my P990i and having seen the W960i in Uk for £414 I'm tempted to press the buy button but need it to run TomTom. Have you read any negatives about handwritting recognition with this compared to the P990i?

the touchscreen is supposed to be less sensitive than P990, P1, etc...because its scratch proof...i guess you´ll have to press harder than you were used too

Just to confirm TomTom 6 does work.
You need to copy all the correct folders along with the install.bif file to the root of the 8gb storage, it will prompt automatically to install.

Just installed it on a W960, exactly the same way as the P990. Not sure how people didn't manage to do it.

When using Tom Tom, if the map for my country is not available, can I google for a free map? May I know the map format if it is MapKing, etc.? Where can I find it and is it free?

Sorry only TomTom v6 maps will work with the software.

You are using the version from the DVD and not from an SD card?
