 |
|
| I have just bought a Tom tom one & have signed up for the free trial for tom tom plus,I have made the bluetooth connection to my phone no problems, but I really want the speed camera warnings but I can't seem to activate my product code on the tom tom website it tells me it doesn't exsist ??? I have emailed tom tom & hopefully will get back to me soon, But can I also load the camera database from this website to work along side the tom tom plus ? as this also has a camera database. |

Also  on this free trial do you still have to pay for the connection on the wap/GPRS like you would for a phone call ? |

Yes, because the gprs data transfer charge is levied by, and paid to, the phone network operator. The "free" bit is the access to the TomTom data itself. |

Don't use the TomTom Plus camera database - reports suggest that is is nowhere near as accurate as the one from PocketGPSWorld. |

Forgot to add - even if you still want to trial the TT camera database, download it onto your PC then transfer across to the TT, saves phone charges. You only need the GPRS connection really for the Traffic and weather services.
But I wouldn't use both databases anyway |
