Hi
Why do TomTom use Navteq maps on the rider and not on the GO series?

From what I understand, TomTom uses both because they are trying to provide the best quality products and data to consumers, as such, they utilize data from multiple sources. |

Or more cynically.... they wanted to scare TeleAtlas into thinking they were going to change map supplier, in order to get a better deal from them? |

I really like the Tele Atlas maps, and I haven't used a Rider, so I'm not going to complain. So far, I've really find the TA maps to be great |
