| Well, I've been using the unit for about a week now and the TMC is coming through on every journey so far, although I've not done any major trips yet. I've still not rigged the aerial to the splitter ... |

When I downloaded the file (2.5gb!) it asked me which region I wanted to install to the 300 and gave me a list to pick from. I've got Mapsource and the map for Europe but I don't know how to get the ... |

Hi dio
When you downloaded the maps I assumed that on the 300 it would only be possible to download the UK maps but are you saying that you managed to download all of Europe to your pc?

I've just bought a 300T for £89 in Tesco, unusually for me I didn't take a look round to see if this was a good deal as I thought for a traffic enabled device this was pretty good.

I have Navigon 6.0 on PDA and am interested to see you get TMC. I have integrated GPS ( Fujitsu Loox 520N) but of course not a peep out of TMC in UK because it is not a free service.
