Hi,

Thanks for the replies to my previous post. Based on your responces I bought a Tom Tom One.

Already I have more questions!

I bought one and had to return it, didnt bother me i was in the car park outside the shop anyway. The problem is I have got the Product Code card of the returned TOM TOM mixed up with the Product Code card of the new Tom Tom. So i dont really know what Product code relates to the unit I have got.

Also, I have managed to download the speedcamera locations and as I predicted it is out of date in my area. (Cumbria). There are Tempory Cameras on the database where now there is fixed cameras GATSO's.
I will add the new cameras when the road is quiet and I can pull over to safely enter the POI.

Speaking of POI's I was looking for Petrol Stations and Car Parks.

All I can find is lists of say BP Petrol stations or Esso Petrol stations. !! does it really matter what the type of petrol is !!! why isnt all makes of petrol stations under the same POI

As for Car Parks, The list that came with the TOm Tom are limited, there are loads missing. The large Multi Story in the town is missing for example. Where can these POI's be downloaded from.

I'm also interested in adding more voices, anyone got a website I can download these from.

Many Thanks.

I would also like the full 7 digit Postcode search files as the 3 digit is very annoying

It is a known issue with most of the categories that are built-in.

The ONE already has 7 digit Postcodes. You have to use Navigate To ...., Page 2, Postcode (not Navigate To ..., Address).
