I just learned that the Navman SmartST V3 SW (using Tele Atlas map data) doesn't support motorway exit numbers, which I find pretty bad. Does anyone know if this is due to the map data or the Navigation SW? Does TomTom support this feature?

Are there any other Navigation systems (with Tele Atlas or Navteq map data) that do display this kind of information? Is it the same in the US?

Cheers,
Ulf

TomTom 3 displays the motorway exit numbers when you tap the junction.

This is one of the features that I posted in the SmartST wish list back in March 2003, not long after v2 was released.
Unfortunately it has not made it into v3 which is a pity.

Still, one of the biggest wishes - active POI's - made it !

Ok, does that mean that TomTom isn't using the exit numbers in the routing instructions? That's what I consider as the most important function.

Anyway, this should indicate that it's Navman rather than Tele Atlas that should be blamed for missing out this functionality... Confused
