I have had to finally upgrade(downgrade) to a new TomTom after my trusty 520T finally gave up the ghost.

I went for the 950 live as I do a lot of trips to the states I miss the FM transmit but other than that I really like my new unit.

One thing that does annoy me a bit is the touch screen seems very sensetive. I get a bit fed up with taping the screen and it jumping 2 steps all the time and typing means I get double letters all the time. Is this normal?

I don't know about normal but it happens a lot with my 750 too! Don't think there is anything you can do......except tap the back/erase "button"...Laughing Out Loud

If your 950 is still new, I'd be tempted to bring it back and get a replacement. I haven't seen it being mentioned before so it doesn't appear to be a common problem. Who knows, you two may have the only two units with the problem. Twisted Evil

In Navcore 9 the touchscreen seems a lot more sensitive than 8 and below...

Thanks for the replies looks like I'll have to put up with it or just use my remote all the time.

Could you use a stylus instead of your finger?

Could do but it would still be as sensetive as a finger.
