Regarding HD traffic, in my 1000 miles a week up and down the UK I find it to be accurate, sometimes I see that the back of the queue on the 540 is exactly where I have stopped.
Yes, sometimes some delays do hang, and some take an age to show but on the whole, id say its pretty damn good.

Unless you are driving a Formula 1 car the wind speed is of little use. _________________ GO 620, Tomtom Android EU,

But handy if you're in a boat or glider perhaps? |

You sure that's not the average traffic speed? _________________ Gone fishing! |

But I suppose my iPhone 3 would have to be upgraded to an iPhone 4. If only I'd known before I got it that the 4 was about to arrive.
I do hope the wind will moderate before I go to Swindon tomorrow (oops, today). _________________ Dennis

OK, so I've got TTG520T, XLLive IQ, GO550Live, GO700, Carminat and iPhone 3GS with CamerAlert for serious (saves all that messing about with weekly downloads and zips and copies and pastes and Warn when near and stuff).
Oh, I forgot, HTC Advantage with TTNav6.
And I went to Purfleet - why don't they have yachts? _________________ Dennis
