TOMTOM 6 ON XDA11I - LEGAL VERSION

Weatheryoko will be pleased to hear that i have today ordered my LEGAL version of TomTom 6 - after trying the tomtom 5.21 (Cracked version) and the tomtom 6 (Cracked version) and various other nav systems(all Cracked), i have decided that tomtom are a good system to use. The reason for my trying these different versions is because i paid mercedes £1500 to have satnav fitted in a car i ordered from them and found it to be utter rubbish, besides not being portable between vehicles etc. Once fitted it's then obviously too late for refunds etc. As there isn't any option, i've found, to test these systems before purchase, it made sense to try the cracked versions.
As Weatheryoko is so anti-piracy i trust he will now hand back any owned property, to the indigenous population/native americans, that were "stolen" "pirated" from them by his forebears, and will campaign on their behalf for other such lands to be returned - or is it the usual - do as i say not as i do :wink:

Glad to hear it....
I'm glad to hear that your buying a legal version, and thanks for the "jabs". Just so you know, I'm an immigrant and I (nor my ancestors) were here when the lands were stolen from the Native Americans. We weren't even here during the last "land grab" of 1889. Believe me when I say this, I think is was shameless the way they were treated. Having lived in Oklahoma (which is Choctaw for "Red People" FYI), I know this story too well. Maybe this is what prompted me to donate funds to the American Indian College Fund. I would recommend that you get to know people first, before making rash judgements. Maybe that was the problem with the early American settlers? What do you think? Mate, if you want to throw stones in glass houses, do you want to talk about the Ireland or Scotland? We could also talk about slavery (which both your and my country had at one time) if you chose. The bottom line, neither country is clean. Atrocities know no political boundary. Darfur, Nazi Germany, Crusades, Bosnia, Cambodia... pick one. I can't change the past, but I can choose how I live in the present. If I see someone doing something wrong, I try to do something about it. I'm not perfect. I **** things up occassionally, but I learn, try to make things right and move on.
This isn't an attack on you, so please don't take it personally. However, reading your comments prompted me to respond. Since this thread is already way off topic, I won't comment any further. Bottom line, glad to see that you bought the legal version. Please encourage others to do so. I do wish though that TomTom would provide an "evaluation version" so people could evaluate it for while before purchasing. This may cut down on the wide-spread use of cracked versions.

Agreed, to expect someone to pay that much without testing it a bit first is a bit much imo.
You can see it in a shop but not just try driving down the street a bit which would give you a proper idea of what its like.

Weatheryoko - it wasn't meant as a personal attack i was just using irony as an example - agreed the world is probably never going to be perfect - but please don't judge people for using what is available for evaluation or other reasons - surely that is the greatest tool that the internet and forums such as this provide - btw tomtom is a good product imho and i took the opportunity only to evaluate the possibilities before parting with my ill gotten gains having been stung before :wink: Enough said, as you rightly stated this is way off topic - and we all have our own opinions, which is why the world is, as is. :roll:

well done ..but the tt6 version isn't compatable with tt6 on tomtom website yet,but i'm sure you will gloat at how well it works if it does work ,i'm waiting for some positives before i splash out this time

Can anyone tell me where the TomTom6 for PocketPC can be ordered. I've checked the Tomtom website and the only 6.x version I can order is for the various GO devices... but no PDA so far :-(

I ordered mine from the guy that supplies me with all my desktop/laptops and all other it/comms paraphernalia - and as one of his best :wink: customers, hopefully he'll come up with the goods as soon as he has them. But he has been known to be notoriously slow at times - so i won't hold my breath - it's only an order and as i understand you can order from pc world business or, presumably, other retailers - unfortunately i don't have a delivery date as such, just a promise, but then again i'm in no hurry, it's only another toy to play with!

yup they get you buy the short and curleys as teh software is free you only pay for the maps

All TomTom maps, voices etc. are coded to the individual TomTom software ID and are not interchangeable across TomTom users or TomTom versions, you need to buy everything all over again.

Got your TT6 yet dude? I have it up and running on 2 PDA's right here and i've put it on my mates XDA Mini IIs to. Not the legit version you undertand!

I have had enough of people not thinking before posting pirated software. XDA Developers is a very valuable resource that can be closed down very quickly beacuse of pirated software, and thats something I dont ever want to see happen.
Dont get me wrong I use pirated software as much as the next person, but I dont go posting it on legit sites! Ejits like you are what get messsage boards closed down.
XDA DEV IS NOT A WAREZ BOARD SO DONT TREAT IT LIKE ONE!

info regarding AT&T WM6

I was talking to AT&T business customer service regarding my account. Before i got off the phone i asked a question regarding the availability of WM6 for the treo 750. He said the upgrade is out and available to all thier retail stores in effort to upgrade the existing stock of Treo 750 with WM5 to WM6 in preperation for the arrival of the new TREO 750 with WM6 included. Once the above mentioned is complied with, the upgrade for existing users will hit the perverbial shelves...

WM6 ROM
I was talking to my Tarot Card reader, and she told me that the WM6 ROM would be arriving when the marriage of the moon and the cat had passed the arrival of the white knight. She also told me that I would blessed with much fortune after a period of intense hunger and longing. So...I got that going for me!

jhowle,
Thanks for posting your info here. I think we're all a little jaded when it comes to the multiple dates, timeframes, plans and timelines posted from AT&T, Cingular, Palm, and others. I'm hoping that your information pans out. I guess I need to stop at the AT&T store on the way home today...
Can anyone confirm that the stores have the update? A link would be nice.
Thanks,

I think this poster has as much chance of getting an honest answer getting information about WM6 from a gypsy then tech support from AT&T. Poster is making a Joke (true) but a joke none the less. Don't be so sensitive!

Oh.. im not jaded at all.. infact the blackberry curve is looking pretty right about now. I've been surving this country for 12 years in the USAF. Waiting for this new upgrade to come out is sorta small compared to current events and you would understand if you were in my shoes.

Thanks

At least somebody here gets the point I was trying to make. The bottom line is that there is no way of knowing what AT&T, or Verizon, Or T-Mobile, or anyone is going to do at any time. It does not matter what anyone says here. If I create a fake avatar with the AT&T logo and pretend I am the CEO of AT&T and tell you it will be released tomorrow, will you believe me? If you do, what happens when it does not show up? I truly appreciate any info anyone gives here...HONESTLY I DO!!! I just happen to think this is all very funny, so I am trying to lighten things up.
I gotta go now. My numerologist is here to tell me who is going to win the presidential election.

Alright,, thats enough for me,, i'm done posting.. period.

Dutty's rom and Olipro unlocker is on ebay!!!!

This seller is selling Duffy's as he own on ebay check out this link. And also Olipro unlocker too!!!

What can I do to help get this bum?

I wonder if that would be a copy right violation because he's getting money for it? hmmmm

I think it is
What can we do?

Report it!!!
I just made a report on ebay I hope it works

You know, this isn't the first time this has happened.

Yeah I know but it just ain't right. Its stealing.

Report the listing to ebay
If a few people flag this listing as counterfeit then it should be removed swiftly enough by ebay.
Here's a link to do that:
http://cgi1.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=110261357706&seller=lnstantdelivery&active=1
Note: I'm not sure if this guy is actually breaking the rules or not. I'm not familiar with the software licenses.

I think as a result of immoral actions like this, the guy who cooked Herald´s Touch-IT (Itje I think it is), got pissed big-time and removed all the links to his ROM.
I definitely wouldn't like that to happen to any other ROM. These guys bust their asses working on this. Hope there is something else we can do in order to prevent this.

Good Idea, lets get this bum kicked off ebay if we can.

Have a look at his other items and see how many roms he is selling.....
http://stores.ebay.com/lnstantdelivery

I refuse to have a e-bay account, therefor i cannot send seller a message. But eveybody that does should send the seller a message asking why anyone would pay for somthing that we can do for free, and then reference xda-developers.

He's making a living off of stolen software and windows mobile upgrades!!! And I bet it's all free software too.

Ebay has done nothing
Ok i reported this to ebay like 10 hours ago and still nothig this seller is still on selling Dutty's and Olipro work. What else can I do? I started this thread I'm not stopping til I shut down this bum. So who's with me

wow what a douche. i hope oli will cut off his testicles and sell it on ebay. just spoke to some guy using the chat feature and they will look into it.

just sent message to seller asking why is he selling free stuff? and that I am reporting him to ebay. Man is there licensing document for dutty's rom? Its like those websites who try to sell utorrent or limewire to public.

i really wonder if he sold any of the roms/unlocker etc.

Sellers like this guy will keep popping here and there. There is nothing we can do except report it if we see one. Sad but true!

Windows Marketplace, will it hurt?

Hey everyone,
I am really concerned about windows marketplace. I suppose it will either help the community here by weeding out certain visitors, or it could lure all the good dev's from here with the promise of getting more than recognition for their work.
Anyone have an opinion?

It always hurts the first time.

opps my bad i should really proof read.

I wouldn't worry about it. If anything, it should be useful for the platform and, as such, will benefit us all. For people like myself who flash ROMs quite often Marketplace is useless as it doesn't leave the the cabs and I'll have to redownload stuff every time. For those users who can't spend 5 minutes googling it will be a blessing and therefore will grow the market for WM apps.
What does worry me a bit is not users migrating to MP, but developers.

Android. The theif.

Doesn't anyone find it odd that we are paying out huge sums of cash for a Linux based OS that is free to use?

Because the cost of the handset doesn't factor into it at all :face palms:

I mean they handed us a broken toy and we fixed it for them with no pay and they sold it back to us as an update, now we are fixing it up more. Hopefully when Android 114.6 rolls out some devs. will for a union of some kind and make some cash from big business instead of settling for the 2.99 that their brothers and sisters are downloading.

Next time put the bong down and think before posting.
Here's your basic argument in another context:
The internet is free so why do we spend so much money on computers to browse web pages?

But who is it that decides the devs have been screwed. Is it you? I think that honor goes to each individual who bought the phone. You don't get to determine that someone else has been screwed just because your panties are in a bunch over something related to your phone.

The cost of a non open source operating system on a phone is going to be so heavily subsidized, I'd be surprised if the additional cost was more than a couple of dollars/pounds/whatever. Bottom line is that you're just paying for the device whichever route you take.
Also consider how long android has been out, it is definitely the quickest maturing mobile platform around. Anyone remember the state wm was in at this age?
Edit: I think the developers would rather be "screwed" as you put it in order to bring about progress in a timely manner. That's what open source is all about!

First off, that's a toaster I want.
Second off, you're absolutely right. It's not about the money, it's about taking your phone to the next level and being able to say you were the one who got it there first. I and thousands of others have nothing but respect for these developers and a lot of us give them both props and donations for their work. I'm sure the donations are nice, but I doubt there are many devs on XDA who started writing ROMs and compiling kernels because they thought it would make them rich.
Don't understate the motivational power of random people coming into your thread to say "Your work is awesome, keep it up, and how cool would it be if it did this too?" For some people the respect is all they need, since genuine respect can't be bought, it can only be earned.
