Back in mid April this year we announced the release of CoPilot Live | Pocket PC 4 in the US. UK and European users have been eagerly waiting for this to be released in the UK. Unfortunately the product was delayed for a while, but we're pleased to announce that CoPilot Live | Pocket PC 4 started shipping last week to the distributor channels and anyone who has pre-ordered it is starting to receive it as soon dealer stocks come in. Unfortunately we were hoping to have an early preview copy to review, that didn't happen due to delays, but I can tell you we've been working with TravRoute to include the Pocket GPS Safety Camera Database into CoPilot Live | Pocket PC 4, and this is in there.
TravRoute have also announced today that they are shipping a re-badged Emtac BlueTooth GPS Receiver, following on from previous inclusions of Emtac products into the TravRoute range of GPS Receivers. This is currently only available in the US, but hopefully will be available in the UK shortly. |

$199 for bluetooth gps receiver is an excellent price. This is much more affordable than emtac/socket. I just hoping that it will perform as good as the emtac. Thanks for the info Dave. By the way how is their software compare the tomtom? |

I haven't tried CoPilot 4 yet, but from what I hear it is improved. TomTom has always been up in front from a UI perspective, but CoPilot has some really nice features like the re-route and also fonix text to speech which allows road names to be spoken which you don't get on any other products. |
