Bookmark topic
Cause there is no answer to the question of using Route66 or Tom Tom with p900 cause the memory limitation I would like to know if there is possible do the route that I need with my computer using Autoroute, Route 66 or others and then transfer only the information about that route in my p900 gps software (and what software?) to navigate with the route calulkated by the pc previously.
Is possible?
Sorry for my little english

Route 66 have a P900 version (Mobile Europe 2006), though it appears you are limited in map area as to how much you can load.
Tom Tom still haven't announced a P900 version, and i don't think they will. All seems to be about the huge amount of memory these things hog.

TomTom on my PDA fits on a 128mb card - IIRC the UK maps are less than 100mb.
So why can't it fit on a 128 card for the P900?

Maybe they can't be bothered to recode for UIQ and a limited market of P800/900/910.
From what I can see:-
Tom Tom - not going to release a product, plus you will have to pay for traffic info annually for Nokia version -approx £50pa?.
Speed camera database (audible warning) can be loaded for Nokia version. Maybe worth buying a cheap Nokia 6600 for the car just for this?
Route66 - maps split for P800/900 so need multiple memory cards.
No speed camera database (and they aren't interested in adding it).
Forced to buy Mobile Europe rather than Mobile Britain if you only want cd. Annual license for maps - very expensive.
Traffic info free of charge.
Wayfinder - Speed camera database, but no audible warnings.
Map purchase is a lifetime subscription linked to your phone or annual.
Traffic info in beta testing (free atm, though small annual charge expected when running properly - they thought about 21euro).
main drawback is they do the maps 'on the fly' though you can store limited info on your memory card.

Navicore personal is apparently out for the p910. I don't know about the p900.

Personally I think I'm going for Wayfinder.
If I plan a route then I'll check for speed cameras before I go so I know roughly where they are deployed.
