I thought that "released" means "available for purchase", but as you can see here:
http://www.tomtom.com/products/product.php...D=23&Language=1

it is not available for purchase yet.

It is for sale and a few members here have already bought it
from TomTom's resellers.

it's not about "arsey attitude" of mine but about desire to provide helpful and specific information to readers and not just general "it's somewhere".

Pity it's not compatible with C500 though, I will stick with Mapopolis for a while therefore...

[fozzie]

That'll be a thanks then yes?

Don't forget to update your "helpful and specific" homepage leader today from:

"TomTom Mobile for Microsoft Smartphone - almost available, but not quite yet - GPS navigation software" to:

"TomTom Mobile for Microsoft Smartphone - NOW available - GPS navigation software" and replace:

"but still it's not available for purchase ...." with:

"is now available for purchase ...."!

And if anyone can solve the problem of grabbing screenshots from TT Mobile then I'd be a very happy man.

Our review is ready to go to press but we can't get any screen grabs, SmartSS, MS Remote Display, Pocket Controller Professional all fail .

Good to see that it will be available for C-500 soon. So it seems a straight choice between TOMTOM, Co-Pilot and Mapopolis. If so-pilot get there traffic information system up and running as advertised (integrated into co-pilot) then it seems the better choice.

Has anyone any experience of using TOMTOM and Co-Pilot (for a comparison)?

If you have an E200 then you will have problems with this possibly. I found that with the e200 it was impossible to do any screen grabs from applications that used gapi. instead it would just take a grab of the atuall desktop running underneath the application.

If this is not what you mean then appologies

Does ayone know if this supports thrid party bluetooth gps devices. and will they be selling a software only sollution?

PS.

And another thing. I know it only supports e200 at the momnet because of a bt problem. But isn't there also a problem with the fact that the c500 doesn't take mmc cards? How big is the whole program coz i gues us c500 owners would have to copy it across onto our own minisd cards for it to work? does it allow you to do this?

[griffog]

It's a difficult choice between TomTom and CoPilot, TomTom has it's excellent custom POI support so you can get alerts for our Safety Camera database, CoPilot's display is better optimised for the smaller screen (and runs on a C500). TomTom will be releasing Traffic support later as will CoPilot (it's not available in either release at present).

Looking in the registry reveals information on many different GPS receiver types so this would suggest that it will at a later date support others GPS receivers. The pre-release copy we tested was locked to TT BT, the release version may not be the same but we are yet to receive our release copy.

We have no information on the availability of this bundle as a software only package but I would be surprised if it were not available as software only at some stage.

That is exactly what is happening, there must be a way around this though, TomTom have screenshots (we can't grab them off the 6600 version either ) but they may be using an emulator running on a PC perhaps?

[Croccy22]

I have been trying for ages to find a way around this but really couldn't come up with anything. I wanted to be able to take some screenshots of some games i am working on.

The only thing i could suggest is maybe run it up on either an e100 or a c500. Even if the bt doesn't work you may still be able to grab screenies?

I had the same problem with other programs for MS Smartphone. Unfortuantely the only solution is to take digital camera and take photos of the display to grab screens...

Is it possible to use two bluetooth devices at the same time? For example, a bluetooth headset and the bluetooth gps?

Not with any current handsets no.

TT mobile available here (maybe!) http://www.totalpda....tom-Mobile.aspx

Doesnt the C500 allow for multiple use of BT devices?
