Looking at upgrading my phone again

Hi Tidgy, I use a xda exec for sat nav as I upgraded to it but still use my d500 as a phone. I use tom tom 5 with a navman bluetooth gps reciever, it's great and with a little nonslip pad for the dashyou don't need an ugly suction cup stuck to the window

Route 66 is poo. Tom tom is far better.

I run tomtom on a Nokia N70 but if you want to do the same make sure the N70 firmware is the latest revision.
