Hi Andy

I have an XDA2. they are superb peices of kit. But there are a few of things you should be aware of.

1 make sure you get a good SD card (panasonic)
2 make sure you have the latest ROM V 1.66.00wwe
3 install Bluetooth tools ( http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html )

I had problems when I first got the xda2 with the time to start programs and hangups but the ROM and the decent SD card sorted it.
the bluetooth tools gives you all the connectivity you need.
The Traffic data is seamless and when the phone rings you can talk via the headset and the systems keeps navigating.

I run TT3 +T, GPSassist v2, digitools postcode, fotuna BT clipon, Jabra250 headset.

Any more info you need just ask.

Oh yeah, also I need to access my email from work, and normally use a VPN to connect to the exchange server for my laptop, does it support VPN?

the xda rom upgrade is freely available from the o2 website i have to say im impressed with mine and dont have any issues using tomtom at all unlike my ipaq 2210. there are a few little bugs(flaws) in the software but nothing a soft reset will fix and they are only very minor bugs so yeah as whole package id recomend it as for using a vpn and exchange server i dont know much about them but as far a know there shouldnt be any problem
