I have just upgraded my HX4700 to WM5 fia the HP.com website. So far I like the look of it however it is very very slow compared to 2003se.

Has anyone else tried WM5 on an HX4700 and running TomTom nav 5.21. The screen refresh is almost unuseable.

I have deliberately avoided the upgrade on my 4700 as I need the Widcom Bluetooth stack, this might help though - within your TomTom set-up have you got any POI's enabled? if so disable them and use the "Warn when near POI" to be given a prompt of a camera or other POI etc. There is a limit of 39 seperate POI warnings that you can set.
Also within WM2005 how many additional programs have you got running? check this from setings/ system Tab/ memory icon, running programs tab - Mike

Hi Mike,

I have applied the WM5 registry patch (renaming 2 keys), and all my programs are installed on the SD (Corsair 60x 1GB) as this is faster to write and read from than the internal ROM.

I dont have any other programs set and it is set to warn when I am close to a camera.
