Do I need an external GPS receiver with the Tytn II? I cant get the stupid thing to work with Google Maps, or Windows Live in the US. Any ideas?
Get satelite fix first using "GPSViewer" application or TomTom6, then Google Maps will work flawlessly :

This is a known issue with current Google Maps app.

thx...works fine now. Is google maps or live search supposed to talk? does tomtom talk to you or can you listen through headset?

TomTom talks to you and will direct you. Live Search will show you your route but will not give you voice promts, only beeps when it's time to turn.

Google Navigator will also talk to you. Yes you can listen through wired headset.
with BTaudio toggle.exe you can also listen to all sounds thru the BT Headset.
navigate in satellites maps, not just a fixed map

Looks nice. how does it compare with telenav v5.2
does anyone know, Which version of TomTom or Garmin XT maps supports TST?
Has anyone considered writing a driver to emulate one of the TMC receivers that iGo8 supports and then feeding it with traffic information from Google Traffic?
Would such an app even be feasible?
There must be a way to change the voice commands it uses to the celebrity stuff...
i doubt you can do it. Tom Tom and google are completely different companies, meaning their programs wouldnt be alike anyways. Ultimately, tom tom celeb voices are just a feature to draw in more money imo.
But do you think it would be possible to find what speech Nav needs, then sub in some new audio? Then it would only be work to slowly sub in recorded speech from anywhere, possible ripped audio files from the tom tom software? Basically, Pulling only the audio resources from a tom tom like product software, and diverting the audio pull from google nav to these stored audio tracts. I understand that google is using the text to speech software, but from what I've seen, it creates the audio it need, then stores it and plays it. After A Google Nav trip, I have leftover vocal files on the sd card. (Running app2sd from cyan).
Seems like it could be tricked... Wish i knew code more.
