Just an FYI, iGO8 has the options to announce street names. You just need to download the files for it.

I just flashed Juicy sprint ROM 2.1. I also followed the sticky "configure GPS". but when I launched google map and use gps, it keeps seeking for sattelite and nothing happens.

Please help.

Thanks.

Garmin XT does. I was using iGo 7 and that was my reason for using Garmin XT. I don't know if the new iGo does that or not.

With full VGA support and a sleek black theme, not only have I found it to be the most functional and responsive navi app.. but it looks perfect on the diamond, the black theme makes the the unit look like a standalone PNA.

It has always been my experience as well that TTM has the best POI database.

I have asked, just nobody answered.

I don't see TT7 available on their site and when you go to the maps area, there are only Euro maps available for TT7.

I bought TT6 and love it on my Mogul, but looking for something else for the new Diamond. The Tom Tom buddies is nice too when taking trips or having family traveling.

Thanks!

never mind, changed my mind about it, IGO8 is the best after searching and downloading TTS (street names USA FEMALE) using it in my diamond landscape mode i'm loving it, and the good thing is that i can delete my entire usa map from iguidance which take 1.3gb of memory, and install only the few maps around easter coast (around 300mb) and use those. thanx again

Im not gonna lie here.. I didnt pay for TT7.. But it most definitely is available, along with N/A maps, VGA support, and a nice theme for the diamond

And ill say this once, I contacted one of the only distributors of GPS PDA software in Canada and they dont sell or have any word on TT7. If it was available, I'd pay for it.. but don't expect me to purchase old software. (I tried TT6 and the POI's sucked!... but TT7 fixed that)
