|
|
Hi,
Is it possible to install a set of European postcodes onto a TT One Euro??
At the moment I seem able only to search UK and Irish ones..... In the past on Route 66 (which I had on a PDA) I found the easiest way to find hotels and such whilst in Euro was by routing to their post/zip codes. |

this would be really handy. driving in spain recently would have been much easier to find hotels etc.
actually not even sure if spain operate a full postcode system.
ps you do also have dutch postcodes installed and working on your tomtom.

I'm no postcode expert, but I'd read that the reason TomToms only have UK, Eire and Dutch postcodes because they are the only places where the postcodes are precise enough to be of use for "navigate to..." (along with aa house number). Evedrywhere else, they refer to a much larger area. |

Ummmm,,, I sort of see what your saying. However trust me, I used my old Route 66 setup (on my now life expired PDA) and managed to get myself to where I needed to be with postcodes in Spain, Germany and France.
Never mind. Still impressed with my TT One |
