Can someone please create a list showing models of TomTom and whether or not it will accept 3rd party POIs _________________ Furry Fred

As of now, NONE of the Go 40/50/60/400/500 (new)/600/5000/6000 models do. _________________ David |

Oh dear, not only do I consider third party poi's to be essential, I also use itineraries extensively. So I'm guessing that there aren't too many current TomToms with both! |

Close, but no cigar. The cigar is for guessing that there aren't ANY. _________________ Dennis

Garmin sales must be up, especially those with Digital Traffic.
The 2548 I bought a while ago has been a joy to use. _________________ GO 620, Tomtom Android EU,

last lime I looked on the tomtom site, the comparison chart showed which TTs allowed 3rd party POIs.
The only way to create a list of those that do/do not is to research on the TT site, which you might as well do yourself. |

Can you point me to this comparison chart please?
I had always thought that TomTom had NEVER produced a proper comparison chart of all TT models on their own website!
The independent TomTomForums site used to produce one, but unfortunately it has not been updated for a while now.
It's very good for the older models though.

Or just work from dhn's answer above... Anything NOT in his list should still have POI functionality. _________________ "Settling in nicely" ;-) |
