Anyone tried it yet?

I run it on my Windows Mobile phone and its superb, but I'm slightly worried about the 3GS as the compass is hopeless in the car - Google Maps just thinks I'm driving backwards all the time. On the WM it used the GPS for direction and doesn't suffer from this.

Also, anyone know if the W Europe maps cover the UK in the same detail as the UK & Ireland maps?

I was advised not to bother with tomtom.

I got co pilot instead - much better reviews & only £25.

It's fantastic - auto updates on speed cameras etc

I got TomTom for a road trip from the UK to Slovenia via France, Belgium, Holland, Germany and Austria.

It did not miss a beat either way, a journey of almost 3000 miles. Please note Slovenia is in the Eastern European version not the Western version.

In the UK I have had no issued with detail or lack thereof.

Recommended.

I've just got Tom Tom on the iPhone, having previously used it on a WM6 HTC phone. Seems okay, but then I've only used it a couple of times so far. It actually looks better on the iPhone than it did on the HTC.

Yep, used tomtom on an iphone for flippin ages, a bit of a delay when picking up a signal but that was only in the car with the heated front screen - everything else tip top.

however, that doesnt answer your question entirely as mine was an iphone 3g.
