    No. There is infact one annoying disadvantage, in that you can't rotate the screen to landscape anymore. Which is daft. Because You're buggered unless you're running WM5 with the landscapability. (is that a word?)

    I run TomTom navigator 6 on my Qtek9000 which runs WM5, works fine in both portrait and lanscape, depends how my screen is orientated. As for difference between TT Mobile 5 and Navigator 6, looks pretty much the same to me, maps are a little more updated, full postcode search is working fine. I used to use TTM5 on a Nokia symbian phone

    got it all installed and working - no problems.

    not happy about the paying for speed camera updates ! so I won't.
    Don't like the new "windows" interface to manage your tom tom device, but I can see why they have done it. Going to run a test run on the way to a clients site tommorow.

    Thanks for all the feedback.

    Use Checkpoint for your speed camera updates (even if you dont use the actual program to warn you, it will download them)

    http://checkpoint.oabsoftware.nl/

    You'll also need to register at POIPlace ... http://poiplace.oabsoftware.nl

    Its all free though, so really good
