here -You have to register with PocketGPS world now. Think it costs £2 a month now. I've used the maps for ages on my TomTom - never found them that bad to be honest.

How is the road angel different? i got a tt700 3wks ago and the speed cams fine. I did find a web page wiyh instructions how to change the bleeps and gongs to verbal warnings (ghasto,specs etc) if thats what you mean.
Ive also got a shed load of celeb voices including a female voice that i cant use if theres kids in the car.

If you have never had the road angel then pocketgps stuff is very good. But i have, and still have, and prefer the way the road angel works far more than anything i have tried on my TT700.
The way the RA alerts you, and within spec's continues to alert you is better than the TT warnings by far. And being as i live in Notts, which to anyone who does not know, is spec's camera city of the universe, then those warnings and the way they work is better than TT ones.
Also, on the TT, all the red light cameras are shown as speed cameras, and i have even had some cameras not be shown where they actually are. Now that may seem petty, but when compared to the RA, the RA wins for me.
Again, this is my personal preference, so you really do have to try it to see what you think.
But i am now still using my RA for all cameras. I have to know it is right all the time and not just get surprised by it when it is wrong, like i have done with TT ones.
I dont care what it is marketed like, i bought it to save me from any speed cameras around, be it temporary or not, you name it, and RA has never let me down. TT has, so for me the TT ones went in the bin.
But just let me say this, the help and POI's and the whole website of pocketgps is bloody awesome, so i am not calling them in any way, shape, or form. I had no end of help from them when i was setting my TT up. So its a massive to them, but the TT way was not for me.

GOOD POINT REGARDING THE SPECS IN NOTTS AS I DROVE PAST TODAY.BUT TO BE HONEST THERE THE ONLY ONES IVE SEEN IN THE COUNTRY.THE TT HAS PICKED UP ALL THE CORRECT TRAFFIC CAMERAS AND SPEED CAMERAS IVE SEEN TODAY .YOU HAVE GOT TO ADMIT THE TT IS MORE FUN THATS FOR SURE.
