Guest zombiefly Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 (edited) i know there are a few of these threads but i'm about to spend 200 quid and want to be sure i dont waste my money. I have an mda vario, and would like tomtom5 for it. do i just buy the tomtom5 navigator version then follow the instructions for making it work in this forum?... where do i put the maps? on an sd card? I'm hoping to buy tomorrow as i'm going away over xmas and this would be v useful. Edited December 19, 2005 by zombiefly
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 If you buy the whole package including the GPS unit it will work without a problem. Just install to the storage card. New releases from TomTom are supposed to only be sold on SD card. I have TT5 working well on my Vario.

Guest richard_hogg Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 If you buy now, you should get the 5.2 version which works with WM5.. If not, you can downlaod it FOC from the TomTom website. Should install OK without the instructions here.

Guest newbie12 Posted April 22, 2006 Report Posted April 22, 2006 ' date='Dec 19 2005, 07:46' post='698335']If you buy the whole package including the GPS unit it will work without a problem. Just install to the storage card. New releases from TomTom are supposed to only be sold on SD card. I have TT5 working well on my Vario. Please help me. I have Tmobile MDA which is same as MDA VARIO. I have hardtime connecting the tomtom navigator 5 bluetooth to the MDA. I have upgraded to version 5.2x but no help. I also have activated the GPS applet. I was successful connecting my friend's tomtom gps device which was designed for Palm. (bluetooth device 9821x from tomtom, silver color). I then bought the tomtom navigator 5 with software(Thought if it works with old bluetooth then it will work with new bluetooth). But it is not connecting to my TOMTOM BLUETOOTH. ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED. Thanks in advance.
