Guest bomberh Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 can anyone confirm this do you have the one from orange i have miss placed the cd from mine does tomtom come on the cds if not any one know what version tomtom i need and where to get from Unfortunately the disks that come with the Orange TYTN II do not contain any version of TomTom! I have just double-checked my disks to make sure... oh that they did, and if only I had downloaded the upgrade version of TTN5 to TTN6 when I bought an updated map for my Lifedrive..(now retired form PDA use as it is a little unreliable but still works with TTN5 weird or what!!!) in Jan this year ok it wouldn't have worked with the Lifedrive (or so TT reckoned..not supported for TT6) but meant I had a future ish proof version that I could use any new PDA that I purchased such as the TYTN II grrr. I was hoping that Orange would have included the TT6 taster edition but it was not to be! I think they missed a trick although they probably think that their SATNAV is brill (for their revenue) but I have to disagree. Cheers, Bomber PS If anyone knows of a legal way to get TT5 upgraded to TT6 (my TT5 is on a SD card and I have a 6GB microSD in TYTN II) let me know....Ta [Would downloading the TT6 map of Western Europe onto the microSD card and hoping TT home downloads the software work???} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Neil5459 Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 .. but that's only if you have the TomTom program in the 1st place :( If you can obtain a copy of the TomTom application files or the TomTom Taster folders from 'a friend' you could go ahead and purchase mapa to work with it. This is not a dubious operation- TomTom don't actually charge for the program itself, though they don't make it available; they make the charge for any maps you purchase, each of which have to be activated for a specific device.

Guest bomberh Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 it's under the P3600 section Go to other downloads>P3600 and it's there Thank you for that... have installed it and it works using other NMEA device, 4800 baud and COM4!! (downloaded Western Europe map first but given only £39.95 from TomTom website at present, a lot less than the DVD or SD card versions) Unlike my TomTom Bluetooth unit the TYTNII has managed to get a GPS signal inside my flat...unbelievable!! Once again thanks to all for the info and advice Merry Christmas to all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
