I realise that I am using an old system my Palm T3 with TomTom but it still works very well in the UK BUT I am going to Corfu later in the year and has anyone come across digital maps for Corfu that will work.
I have to drive from the airport to Roda, through the mountains at night and my navigator will almost certainly be asleep so the GPS will be essential.

The only map I could find was one suitable for OziExplorer when I visited a while back. Worked fine on PocketPC but I don't think there is a Palm client.
There are not, as far as I am aware, any turn-by-turn GPS maps available for the island as yet. _________________ Darren Griffin

Corfu is on the TomTom Europe v8.40 map at least?

Which Europe map?? I've looked at TT's Western & Central, Central and Eastern, and Eastern and none of those three say Greece/Islands.
The v845 Greece map offered for my GO700 DOES say Islands and the TT Route planner has a reasonable looking map of Corfu (incidentally when I asked it to nav from Corfu to Roda it came up with "Corfu, Kerkyra, to Röda, Frohburg, 23:43 hours, 2229Kms ).
So what version of the App do I have to accept to use map 845 and which Europe version do I need? I currently have App 6.520 and map W&CE v675.1409 (On the basis of it ain't broke, don't fix it, because I have more recent v845 UK&ROI maps on my 2 other TT devices). _________________ Dennis

Its just "Europe", not Western this or Eastern that.
One of the best maps ever, apart from my trustie v6.75.1322 of course.
Excellent fun if you are bored, trying to route from Inverness to Eastern Russia.
As far as I know, it works with all updated navcores.
It also seems to be the only map when if in Browse Map, you can still see local roads when zooming right out.

You'll have to give me a better clue, please. I think I've checked every map and the only match to what you've quoted is the 8.45 map for GO950 Live IQ Routes. I did once try buying and downloading a "better" map, when TT allowed us to buy/download any maps, but they link the map version to the device and the map wouldn't install on my device.
So how do I get that Europe map for my GO700, which I assume is where you're using it? I can update the Application to 7.903. _________________ Dennis
