Hello. I bought one of the el cheapo bluetooth receivers from mobilefun.co.uk

All in it's £45, but it's the cheapest I could find. Only 12 channel but seems to work ok with tomtom on my vario.

So whats the speed like with tomtom on the vario with it only having the 195mhz processor ,and is it able to handle an icoming call whilst using the tomtom software?

I have a TomTom GO 700, which is a standalone device, but I like it a lot. I think TomTom has great software.

I think the best one to get is the Holux GPSlim 236. I have one and it is great, but its a little more than £40 (around £75 I recall). The extra is worth the money in my view as the unit is fantastic and really sentitive. Matt

yep, just about. it has a little think about it then comes up on screen to say you have a call waiting...seems slower with MS Voice control installed....cos it tells you who is calling you too.

still, it works and im happy with it.
