Gettint Tomtom installed can be an absolute nightmare, i had to install it 5 times on my h4000 pda, i am hoping version 5 will be a lot better, if you can wait then i would as v5 is supposed to fix a lot of the bugs/annoyances in v3, including out of date maps which is really important. It is rumoured to be released at the start of June which is not long now.

If you V3 is legit then you can upgrade to V5 direct from Tom Tom here.

Check through the link carefully as some features are also lost in V5.

v3 is ok, might be better using this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1
This should give full postcode search.
what do you reckon?
