|

Hi. Can anyone tell me if TomTom Mobile works OK on an Orange M600? I'm thinking of upgrading from an SPV E200 and can't decide whether to go for a C600 or the new M600.
Also, at the moment, I'm using Ver 5.0 on my SPVE200 which I must admit seems to drop out and freeze more frequently than Ver 4.43. Is there some patch that I should install?
If it does work on C600 & M600, which version of Mobile do I need?
Tks

From what I have seen, TomTom for the C600 and M600 version are quite different and incompatible because of the different hardware.
The C600 is more of a phone with added PDA functions and the M600 is more of a PDA with phone functions added.
My T-Mobile MDA Compact II (HTC Charmer) runs most PDA software I have tried whereas the old C500 I had would only run software specifically for the Smartphone. _________________ Gone fishing! |

From My experience with TomTom on a C600, I wouldn't bother.
It mostly works but the niggles aren't worth it in my opinion. Especially if you live in Bristol as I do where the postcodes don't work on a C600, (although they did work fine on a C500!!) |

I use TT on my C600 and its fine. I did try using it on a C600 with the AKU2 update but that was pants and our Orange rep organised a replacement to go back to the original ROM. All is fine now - have been using it for about 5 weeks with no crashes or lockups. _________________ Audi S4
