Right now, Footprints is capable of sending the coordinates to TomTom or other nav packages as it was setup to do that. But unless TomTom was setup to talk to Footprints, the other way around won't happen.

Hope that makes sense.
Yeah, it makes perfect sense and that's exactly what I was thinking as well.

I guess I was hoping that someone else has already come across this problem before and resolved the issue of where TomTom accesses it's pictures from during the times when its not communicating (i.e. receiving pics) directly with Footprints.

Guess I'll have to poke around and see if I can find out what the default paths are for TomTom's pic directory and see if I can somehow redirect it to obtain the images from Footprints dir.

Also, as for TomTom, it doesn't have a built in camera app, at least not one that Im aware of.
