it's the new version of the pocket navigator. u can download it and then extract it in a new folder on your desktop. copy the folder (contains 2 subfolders and a cab) on your ppc. then ran the cab. only 2 languages (greek and english).

hi,
Are we talking about tomtom navigator 7 for PPC right?
excelent news... are you using it? whats your opinion about the softwere?
cheers
Hi
This is a different programme from tomtom. It's called Pocket Navigator. I don't know which countries are covered. The specific link though relates to a file which contains the programme as well as the map for Cyprus. It works fine on the TyTN II and the Touch Cruise and another member has tried it on the P3600. It's quite good.
As far as TomTom is concerned I ve only used version 6.0.
A friend who has been using Destinator 7 though, seems to be very happy. He thinks it's more user friendly than TomTom.
Hope this was helpful.
I keep reading about different versions of maps for tomtom: 7 series maps and 8 series navcore maps. I am thinking about upgrading from older 6 maps on my cruise but don't want to buy 720 if 8 is just around the corner.
Is tt7 on the diamond going to work with 8 series navcore maps and what is the major difference? I did a search and all I came up with is better routing IQ and speed limits and something about updates?
I live in the US but use tomtom oversees and garmin stateside.
thanks,

No just 7 maps, but i read somewhere that is the same as 8 maps exept the road lane assistant
Thanks, with your info I was able to find an older link about 8 with some screenshots

I was hoping for TTS on the PPC version, but so far it doesn't sound like that is working.
tt7 with 720 maps works mine
i have my diamond with tt7 and 720 maps
Hey, to answer my own question, according to other forums, 8 series maps do not work on the ppc at this time.

Hi,
Is anyone here running Destinator 7 (forced to VGA) with a ~200MB map?
I got an updated map to Brazil (2008.q2) and Destinator now runs like installed in an 100mhz device...
It's true that with the map used before (just my City - São Paulo - 50mb) it was not so fast (Tomtom runs much more smooth but has older maps).
Any idea to optimize it? If i move the main app to internal memory make a great diference?
Thanks for the help Bros.

i have the same problem with tt7. recalculating takes too long.
more than 10 seconds. (which is long when you have to know when to take the alternative turn if you take a wrong one)
I'm a bit frustated with the GPS usage in Diamond
The best map for my country is Destinator compatible but the program itself runs very slow (almost not usable).
The second best map is Igo 2006 compatible but i cant make any navigation software based on its core run in Diamond (igo2006, MioMap3.3, onCourseNav, V7... )
The 3rd choice is TomTom7 but the map has some errors in some regions (downtown) of my City so i dont trust in it anymore.
I'm trying Garmin XT V4 this week. But i guess the map is a little old and designed more to inter cities roads than to urban (streets and avenues)use.
Igo8 runs but dont have maps to my place.
So i dont have a good solution at the moment.
Is destinator 6 more light that the 7 version? Is it deservs a try?

Hello !
is there already a plugin or something to log the track while using tomtom ?
I found several for tomtom Go and other different versions but not one for tomtom on the diamond...

...alternative?
Not exactly in TT, but this works nicely.....perhaps worth a look

Nice initiative, but video is too blurry, I couldn't watch it all the way to the end. Sorry. =/
IGO8 Is the best navigation program for the Diamond. Any attempt to compare is useless.

I'm using Tomtom 7, tried Destinator 7 but didn't like it. Care to say what IGO has that makes it so good?
Thanks.

Any attempt to use IGO if you're in the US is also useless, unfortunately. Hoping they come out with US maps eventually. Until then, TomTom will do it for me.
tomtom for me
used it from day one on my diamond
does all i need it for
GARMIN?
Never heard that you could get garmin navigation on phones.
Out of igo and ttni'd say tomtom7 is still the best.
any ideas where i can download garmin? torrents or rapidshare appreciated.
I use tomtom
I´ve tried IGo8 but i think its kind of messy i can´t find the functions and so on....
tomtom is more right foreward

I've just removed iGo 8 and put tomtom back on as both have the delay, but tomtom is sooooo much better.
You can find Garmin on the bay, though its v4. If you want v5 you can pm me for a "secret" link.
Tom Tom's routing is better I think after trying both programs on my Diamond. IGO8 sent me on a weird route over the clifton bridge in Bristol which it never announced as a toll route the other day. They both have the same delay. Tom Tom is much easier to use and less cluttered but IGO8 does look nice with the 3D maps and the graphics in the menu system. Also the spoken instructions in IGO 8 are clearer and more concise than Tomtom.
So, if you want a navigation system that looks nice then go for IGO8. If you want to get to A to B with confidence, which is what these programs are all about then go for Tomtom.
In my opinion of course!
