adjust the 'view tilt' so you are 'overhead'?

Does the Igo 8 support TMC in the UK?

I have version 8 working on the HTC Diamond, although it has a built-in GPS receiver, I use a GNS combined GPS & TMC receiver and it works fine on the TMC in the U.K, a very useful addition to the program

Thanks, do you know if the sotware will work on a Ipaq 2970?

I contacted Navango who stated that TMC for PDAs will not be working in the UK and there are no plans when this will be made available.
Are there any settings that have to be changed?

I'm also struggling to find TTS voices for IGO8.
Is there anyone out there who can help as I'm losing patients with IGO now.

OK, but if you'll take a look at the official igo8 forum at naviextras - you can find the all illegal links deleted with clear statement that this was leading to the illegal content.

So, why i.e. skins, speedcams are LEGAL (iGo8 is ready for that, but it's neither the part of the originally delivered pack, neither can be downloaded via naviextras official update site), but TTS are not?
To be more specific: in gurjon, dimka, Linknet's Ultra skin - a part of the skin is the set of the voice files as the part of voice speed camera warning. Exactly same as for TTS, you have set of the files for each of the languages.
So, what is the difference?
Voice files for speedcam warning (as part of the skins) are legal, while voice files for TTS - are not?
Well, in medicine, psychiarty particular, such way of thinking is called: schizophrenia.
If this is official policy of NavNGo... I wish them the best, but I will switch to AutoMapa.
To be honest, when I've looked at their maps update price and maps quality... I've took the decision already, as with automapa for about 114GBP equivalent I can have whole Europe with one year subscription to maps & soft update, while further yearly renewal is approx 40GBP only Wink

I purchased a GPS from a web site ( (link to the site).

I wonder if anyone has purchased from them or not.

I noticed a version of iGo is installed. Does any one know how to check it's version?

Is the software upgradable?

Thanks!
Dave
