as anyone encountered problems with bluetooth gps and tomtom?
I've just bought a bluetooth gps, i can connect to tomtom with it fine, baud 9800, but when i drive off the map lags behind the where i really am on the road, making the whole thing useless.. i know my tomtom works ok because i've still got my old gps hardwired cradle so it must be a bluetooth setting i'm missing..
can anyone suggest some changes??? 8O

Gaz, have you got the O2 Active interface software loaded on the device? if you have an O2 ROM loaded this is a possibility, if so remove it, this software slowes the unit down.
More probable cause of your problem, is too many POI's enabled, go to Change Preferences/ Manage POI/ Enable-Disable POI's and make sure NON are selected.
Now go to Change Preferences/ Manage POI/ Warn When Near POI and set up any POI's that you want to warn of.
This method still achieves camera warnings, but it doesn't slow the device down. I have been using an XDAIIs which is the same device appart from the colour, it works fine with TomTom - Mike
