After reading through the posts I now am fully aware how to install the databases but what databases do I need to download to get all the cameras, I am running Tomtom 5 (5.21) on ipaq's 3850 & 3870.
Please can someone please point me in the right direction.
Many thanks in advance.

Any of the three database options contain ALL the cameras, they just present the database in slightly different ways,
The all in one file is simply that, no indication as to the camera type or speed - just a warning that there is a camera at that location.
The Consolodated by type database splits the files into a number of catagories, so you are notified of the location and camera type.
The Speed Zoned set-up gives you the most detail, not only are the cameras seperated by type, but they also contain the speed limit as applicable to the location.
In order of simplicity to install and configure the single file is easiest, progressing to the speed zoned which is more time consuming, at the end of the day it is down to personal preference dependent upon what you want from the device, I find the Speed Zoned is best - but thats down to my choice - Mike

I have installed the speed zoned database with the warning for each file at an appropriate distance for the speed/type and also the single file with the warning at 300 yards as a reminder. Works extremely well. _________________ Charlie Gregory
