Hi, i recently purchased nav 6 for my pocket pc (previous nav 5) as i needed the maps of Florida. on the new version i cannot seem to find a way of changing the view to landscape as i could with NAV 5. Any ideas?
My Pocket PC runs Microsoft Pocket PC V 4.20.0 . Do i need V4.12.1088 . if so how can i get it please?

The screen rotate function was removed from TomTom Navigator version 6, if you want to run the device in Landscape mode you need to switch to Landscape on the PDA using the Settings/ Screen options BEFORE strating the TomTom application, if your PDA doesn't have the screen rotate option within its basic system then you could use a third party application to rotate the screen - Mike

Thanks for the reply Mike. Clever TomTom "NOT". . I have tried other software, but they all seem to only work with V4.12.1088.

the rotate function is built into V4.12.1088 (win2003se), this can be upgraded if your pocket pc is a mio168 or a clone, it can also be configured by one of the buttons on the front to rotate whilst running tt6,
