Hi everyone.
Can anyone tell me of a satnav that has a 'multidrop' facility similar to the TNT travel manager PC software?
I am a delivery driver and use TNT software to input my daily drop addresses and calculate the best drop route.
Cheers

Hi.
The Nuvi 7xx range can do this. You can select multiple points and then get an optimised route. Or you can make your own route if you have a preferred order.
I've not played with this function much but i haven't been too successful in making a "circular" route (i.e. where the first and last points are near Home as it where), but i'm sure i'm just doing it all wrong.... |

copilot 7 will allow up to 10 stops in its standard vesion.
iGO 2006 will take 100+ and doesnt slow down that much either im not sure about iGO 8
I think some ofthe navmans maybe able to offer that feature. the first 2 mentioned will optimize of the fly as well

Ignore what i said above about circular routes. I have just set up a route going to 5 local towns, in a random order. It calculated a 30 mile route, which followed in the order i specified.
Then i selected Optimise Route and it cut it down to 13 miles, and went in a big circle, from Home back to Home. Not sure what i did wrong in the past.... |
