FInd location (use TT as a map?)

[george57l]

Maybe I am being thick but I cannot see a straightforward "find location" function.
IE use the map and search functions on their own.
(so even if sat signal is lost - it does not matter WHERE I am, I just want to be able to find a place on the map.)

I know I can type somewhere in as a destination and map a route and browse route etc etc (yawn - lost the will to live) - but no simple, direct "Find location" type feature. Am I missing something?

Thanks. That does indeed meet the user requirement :-)

Though what I''d really like (the 'perfect' solution) is a single icon to tap on, called "Find location", that takes me straight to an entry screen where I can type in town name or post code and just have TT show me the map for that place.
This would remove a significant number of 'taps' on the screen - a much shorter menu navigation route. (Cos I don't need all the other Find options, like recent, destination, home, favourite, POI etc)

I guess I'll put it on my wishlist for V6.

Cheers
George
