I dont think R66 has full postcode support.
But say I want to go to 147 Victoria Street, London, WC1 2EN. I would enter the address as either WC1 2 147 Victoria OR 147 Victoria London
{Dont forget you can just enter partial names}
Although when the entry is validated is doesnt say 147 Victoria street and only states Victoria Street - the position on the map is generally where the street number should be.
Hope this helps.

thnx matt 
Do you know whether Route 66 would support full postcode search later on? how do you normally do when you navigate to different places? cos If I only have the postcode and house number, I have to find the street name using postcode search then input the house number and street name to do another search...which is quite annoying to do.
p.s. I think putting the house number after doing postcode search is not a complicated task for route 66 company to develop it. just dont understand they dont support that... |

Erm.... If youve only got postcode and house number then its quite difficult to find an address on R66 - for me coming from Copilot 6 this was the only function I miss.
Am sure they will implement it - its a standard feature in alot of GPS systems and am sure they wont want to be left behind. Afterall their product is ahead of the competition in many ways.
