Oncourse Navigator 8 - new iGO 8 for NA

Hey guys,

I don't know how many of you know about the new iGO 8 with updated north american maps. It's no longer called iGO but oncourse. It still pretty much has the same UI except the splash screen doesn't have the 8 but has a new splash screen that says oncourse.

The old 2007 maps from iGO 8 work on it as well as the new maps from this works on the old iGO 8. This pretty much means it's the same program, just a higher build and a different splash screen.

If any of you've tried it, have you gotten TTS voices to work on it? I tried the susan TTS voice and it doesn't work. Maybe I'm not copying the right files or missing something. I'm still fiddling with oncourse to see if there are other differences from iGO, but seems to be the same. I guess good thing is now we got updated NA maps.

I'm going to test to see if terrain, 3d buildings, and poi works on this for canada, since it hasn't worked before.

PS, if you dont have it, a little searching online you should be able to find it.
