But usually April Fool's jokes have something in the text that, with careful reading, indicates it's a joke. If anyone bites after ... |

Not wanting to hijack this thread, but does anybody know if the Scala headset supplied with the TomTom Rider Europe V2 will interface with other Scala headsets?
I can't answer this specifically, but ... |

I can't get mine to pair with my Garmin Nuvi 765T, any ideas?
Cardo's don't support A2DP(?) protocol (Stereo Bluetooth) so it may be that Nuvi only has this?
Pairing can be a pain in the butt to ... |

You can now, I think...
Thanks for the heads-up. I play music anyway, so this is ideal for me. Still, had to download it manually as it's not available for my 720 through home. |

I've no experience of using a Garmin unit but do have a TomTom 720 that I use on my motorbike. Some thoughts:
The bluetooth is AD2P (stereo), so doesn't work with all bluetooth headsets. My Cardo ... |

I tried this with my TT720, fits in the bag OK and it's a quality piece of kit.
However, there are a couple of things that don't work for me. Firstly, the glare off the plastic makes the TT unread ... |

Unfortunately, it will never happen. The problem is that the TomTom GPRS system is 99% reliable, but the data source is pretty much 99% un-trustable. Since they can't do anything about that, otherwi ... |

You'll want to stick it in a plastic bag too. The 720 is not shower proof.
Mine goes in a tank bag with sound routed via FM to headphones in the helmet. Does mean I can't upgrade to the latest ap ... |

Agree with all the above and would like to add that GPRS traffic is almost always out of date and thus useless.
I won't be renewing, and I don't intend to buy a HD device. So TT have lost out on ... |

I think the effect of that on us, would most likely be that our POI filenames will have to be 8.3 (8 chars filename and 3 for extension) ??
More likely they'll use an alternative open source file ... |
