*scratches head*

How am I going to explain this without the risk of saying stuff that might be considered borderline.

True.

Keep in mind though, and I'm ignorant to just HOW these people do it, but the Yakumo series (Delta and Alpha) as well as the Acer N35's have little to no trouble at all with shielded windshie ...

For your information.

The NAvman Pin 300 is an overpriced Yakumo Delta 300 or Mitac 168.

The machines are 100% identical.

Now, I like the 168/Delta 300, I think they're extremely well build a ...

Any user looking for a SirF 3 device, please make sure you either purchase a model with newer firmware (above 3.0.0) or the solid promise you can upgrade it to a newer version by yourself.

Basically, yes. Unless your GPS receiver has a hard-reset function (consult your manual for that), leaving it with a decoupled or empty battery WILL clear it in due time. Remember however, there are q ...

Not having access to a "300", I can't vouch for what I'm writing here, BUT

1) On the Tomtom website, you can find a "Roads of Western Europe" in the accesories list available for the "300".
2) The ...

Well, I'm not sure my experiences can be projected on a typicall UK user, but here on mainland Europe, TT5's maps aren't 100%, but Navigon's (the core program which gets relabeled to Aldi-blabla) are ...

As addition, I've noticed neither the Yakumo Alpha, the Delta, the DeltaX or the N35 have troubles getting through a shielded windshield.

In respect to sensitivity, it's something like

What are your GPS settings ?

From memory, you should choose a "Nema" gps, at a baud rate at 9600 or higher, and select "GPS on Navigator". Leave it alone with a clear view of the sky for a couple o ...

Also worth noting : on the German boards, a lot of people state their lag diminished significantly after updating to 5.1. There's no mentioning of this in the changelog at TT, but heck, why not try th ...

Google around for "XcpuScalar". I'm not sure there's a test version around anymore, but there used to be a free limited trial version.

It works brilliantly on an N10 : all N10's I've had in my hand ...

* Alturion 5 and 6
* Navigon 3

By the way, and just to make the info complete.

My friend uses an old Loox600 (400Mhz) with a Haicom 303 CF card. No substantial lag.
