I have had Tom Tom Mobile version 5 for two weeks now since I bought my new symbian based nokia mobile phone and what can I say what great bit of software it has loads of features not only does it let search for you destination via address it lets you do it via post code which makes life easier especially when you are on the road. These can all be saved in to a favourites menu, which gives you easy access to the address list next time you need to use it.
This software also gives you local phone numbers of near by shops, post offices garages and more so if you are not sure of the area you in and need a chemist you can just go to the list and select what you are looking for and hay presto a list of local chemists and phone numbers.
You can also get up to date traffic information so if you are stuck in traffic you can use this feature to find the cause and then if you need to you can plan an alternative to your route to your destination. There is also a weather feature, which you can find out the weather forecast so you'll know weather to take your trunks or umbrella with you on your journey.
The Software also includes a database with all speed cameras listed in the United Kingdom so when you are on a planned route you can set the software to give you an audio able alert a few hundred meters from the camera to warn you.
All of these software features can updated using your phone so you will always be able to keep up to date while on the move, you can also purchase extra maps of most European countries and cities, which can be downloaded via your handset on the road.

All in all this is a great bit of software that all fits on a reduced sized 128mb mmc memory card and retails for around £200 which you get the software and memory card and the Bluetooth GPS receiver.

Hi, good review, Im still undecided about what to buy! You could use more spacing between your paragraphs to make your review easier to read, but very helpful content. Thank you, Pam
