Is there only one (Kate) computer generated voice for the 720? I like street names being read out but cannot find any other voices apart from hers.
Thanks |

Thanks, Andy, must have missed that one! Shame there is no other choices though, as there is with the non computer voices. |

Again thanks. You would think that feature would be appreciated more than the standard voices and provision made for more UK ones. The American ones are okay but................. |

The way TomTom would like you to install is:
Insert disk to PC, connect Go to PC - start the Home software and use that to install the voice.
Or you can do this using Windows Explorer by extracting the voice files from CAB file on the disk then copy them to the correct folder on the TomTom - Mike |
