|
|
Hi,
I was speaking to a friend who uses Co Pilot recently and was really interested to hear that he can invite people to watch his journeys so they can go on a website and see his position on a map - and for free.
(it connects to his phone over bluetooth and uses GPRS to send the position to the copilot servers every few minutes).
Is there any add-on's for TomTom to do this?
Thanks
Ian |

Isn't that what Buddies does?
I don't know how good it is, but a Search returned several Threads, including This one. _________________ Richard

Buddies only does that if both users have compatible GO's that are hooked up to mobile internet connections. _________________ Darren Griffin |

Hi,
Yeah, this allowed you to invite people from your phone/pda in the car and they could log in on any computer and see your location/destination on a map in the web browser.
Great idea and looked very nifty!
He also said that Co Pilot gives traffic info for free!
