Hi,

I'm planning a trip to Hamburg (Germany!) from London and am wondering if I need just TT3 or do I also need to purchase the European maps (http://www.totalpda.co.uk/TomTom-Navigator-3-European-Maps.aspx)?

I want to get to a specific street in Hamburg. Therefore, I don't think the standard TT3's 'major European road support' provided in the standard version will be sufficient. Am I right?

Finally, if I buy both packages, can I assume that TT3 will be able to guide me in one trip without having to mess around with switching map data etc.? I have a 256Mb SD card so am hoping the trip data can be stored in there.

Thank you.

Al.

I still only have TT2 and am waiting upgrade, but it is my undrstanding that u will be able to get there using Major routes, but once there you would need to switch maps to get the detailed info.

This may sound s silly question - but would TT3 actually tell you to switch maps or would it just show you the route up to a highway and then stop guiding once it ran out of detail?

Thanks,

Al.

I do not have tt3 yet but major roads of europe will take from major city to another major city in a different country , once you are there you have to switch to that coutry's map(Germany in your case)and navigate to the city or street you want.

It doesn't tell you to switch maps, the maps just end at the borders so you would just be travelling as if you were on the M6 toll road Laughing

I planned my route using the Michelin site and set POIs at the border crossings, giving me something to aim at. With TT3 I assume I will not need to do this now, just use major routes.

Well, I placed an order for TT3 and the Maps software and am planning to head out next week. So, let's see what happens!

If I don't ever post again, you know that I've fallen off the edge of the map...
