Unhappy Tomtom Customer seeking refuge | Thread profile

I understand your confusion Mike. This was the point in the conversation where I said that if they couldn't give me a realistic answer regarding what the problem was then I would have no choice to go to a competitor. At this point he basically said "Feel free to go to Garmin if you want to.."

You've confused me there (Not hard to do) Why would TT try to 'steer' you towards Garmin? _________________ Mike XDA EXEC: TT Nav 6; ViaMichelin X980T v 7 and XDA Orbit: CoPilot 6

Based on this, rule out IGo8 as it is locked to the original card. McGuider gives you the chance to move the application and maps to a different card once and I believe CoPilot has no limitiation at all - the CoPilot Central software appears to give the ability to recreate maps etc if the card is replaced (and I read on the ALK website how to do this as well).

For what it's worth, I've had no real problem contacting ALK by email. The've always been polite and reasonably quick to respond. However, I too am desperately trying to move away from TT for many of the reasons you quote. But, TT has the easiest interface of all PNA and PDA software. Alk's mapping is very disappointing on COPL6 and TTN6 isn't much better. So whose PDA software do you buy? What is available that offers...
