TTNav5 - Software only availability

Am I right in still thinking that the software only version of TTNav5, full version will be out around mid June?

I'd like to know as well, but information seems somewhat lacking. Suppliers either just say 'pre order' or 'mid June' (www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk, who were saying May), whilst TomTom's website FAQ just says 'in the summer'

Here's hoping...

Cheers

I bought the software only version and recieved it last Friday from Handtech. They immediately sold out though - but I haven't been back to see if they have any more in.

Got mine on pre order at globalpositioningsystems, they are quoting mid June. They will not take any money till the order is despatched and it will be sent on a first come first basis.

I got one from GPSforless.co.uk but they must have immediately have sold out too as it's now not showing on their site. I'm a bit confused as it doesn't seem to have major roads of Europe?? Not sure if this has to be downloaded separately. Anyone know?

Glad to know it's not just me being scatty. Mine also came in separate bits without the box but I assumed this was just for ease of postage. I agree the product details on the vendor's site don't mention MRoE. I have checked the TomTom website help section re differences between TT3 and TT5 but it doesn't seem to mention absence of MRoE. I have e-mailed TomTom for advice and will let you know if I hear anything

I've already made a post about this. I contacted a couple of Internet retailers and they confirmed that the current retail vesion of TTN5 definately does not come with MRoE. Any websites that mention it as a feature have made a mistake.

As I understand it the MRoE maps only come with the PLUS maps which are only available with an updgrade from a previous version. Anyone know any different then please let me know.
