Kudo's to DonC for figuring out the twiddle part of VoiceCommand.

I have two TouchPro 2 on custom ROM's that didn't work before, then managed to get them both working but one reverted back on me but I think I left VoiceCommand in the wrong state.

As a first pass disable VoiceCommand, reboot then test your TTS.

twiddle???

I was wondering if TTS works well on it. I know some pronounce street names incorrectly.

TTS works fairly well. I've run into some areas that the street names are a little weird and french names (New Orleans) didn't work so well, but majority of the time it works well. Especially in some of the middle of nowhere areas that I have been in with little to no service.

The problem with Nav 7 that I have had is a lot of the new construction is not up to date, no traffic or camera related info and the maps are not covered by their up to date guarantee like they are on their GPS devices that updates about once a quarter.

The good is that the views are more accurate (the land icons are great) and the UI is easy to get around.

I usually run Trapster in the background with Nav 7 so that I can have a little of both in place.

I'm thinking of buying it, but it states on their web site that the compile date for the maps is 4th Quarter 2009. I would like to give someone a begin point ad end point and post back what it came up with for a route.
