Anyone got the tom tom 500?

[dotty]

What do you think of it?

Does it have hands free (bluetooth) for a mobile phone and are there any differences between that and the TT300?


Thanks in advance

The 500 is the outgoing model mate, the ?00 series has been replaced by the ?10 series now.

I've used a TT700 for the last year and just upgraded to the 910 due to a slight problem within TomTom HQ in Holland.

You can use it straight from the box, get updates from TomTom's website, Ebay,PocketGPS world or downloaded from torrent sites.

I downloaded the speed camera database from this bit torrent site. Seems to work very well. You just need to read the install info on pocket gps.
