I use CoPilot Live 7 and it works great! I recommend doing the GPS tweaks in the registry to help with the fix time. I can get a lock within 5 - 10 seconds.

I currently use port splitter (Free & Dead Easy To Setup). Tom Tom 7.45 & Mortscript

portsplitter saves its settings only when you select autostart, this is a problem as then the gps is on as soon as you restart the device. so setup portsplitter, select autostart, start it, stop it, and exit.

browse with file explorer to program files\port splitter and create a new dir called settings. now copy the settings.dat from the port splitter dir to the settings dir.

assumming both port splitter and tomtom have been installed on my storage the following script for mortscript will copy the settings file from the settings dir, start port splitter, start tomtom and wait. when you close tomtom it will open port splitter, stop it, remove autostart check box and close it. this resets all the settings (and thus the need to copy the settings file everytime)

MouseClick("Port Splitter V1.3", 200, 150)

sleep 40

MouseClick("Port Splitter V1.3", 75, 215)

sleep 40

MouseClick("Port Splitter V1.3", 200, 240)

SleepMessage(3, "Port Splitter Not Running")

endif

Hopefully this will help somebody and it allows me to run everything with a single click whilst tidying up and closing gps to save battery once TT7 is closed

Hi i would like to ask. with extra enabled, and i checked auto download when connected to PC. will this incur any GPRS charges? because the data will only be updated when i connect it to my computer. other than that. when i have it enabled. no data is downloaded, therefore no charges.

Am i right on this? please enlighten me.

Given that TomTom have not publicly released a retail version of ttn7 PPC/PDA in Europe yet (and frankly, are not likely to, given their reticence to talk to user groups on the subject), one has to ask: How in heck did you lot get copies of it?

I have a little question... Why do we need to use a 3rd party app to use the gps function?

Shouldnt the gps be working out of the box without the need of any virtual port software?
