chk under setting menu in igo8. might have to enable advanced menu first

thanks. also, is there anyway to remove the navigation arrow when using a car for the cursor? (otherwise it just sits below the car)

1) Where in the h-e-double-hockey-sticks do you purchase this GPS software. Tons of information on the website, but absolutely no "Buy Here", or "click Here to purchase" links. I did find the iGO8 site, but it says nothing about the "new(?)" version.
iGO My Way: http://igomyway.com/windowsmobile/en/overview.html

2) Is iGO8 = iGO My Way 2009 for Windows Mobile???


I've tried the "unofficial" product and like it, minus the fact the "unofficial" version doesn't seem to work with Contact import. I want to purchase the full product to see if Contact support actually does or doesn't work.

Thanks for any help!

yeah they look the same to me..
even ii searches on the net..the interface and engine all appear to be the same..
but nav n go site says that this version is for iphone .. i think the igo my way brand name is for iphone and the igo8 is the windows mobile version.. so don't worry they both are the same.. infact when you run igo8 the splash screen says igo my way .....

you don't need an app .. just open the program.. go to menu>settings > device > set screen orientation > chech landscape and restart ..

"Go to Settings --> Map Screen --> Check on "Street Names During Navigation" from first post I dont see it. Is it more to it? thanks

Add this to your igo8 sys.txt

[map]
3d_scale_carmodel=1
3dcarsizemin=3000
3dcarsizemax=5000
3dcarsizemul=9000


You can adjust the numbers up or down to make the arrow under the car as small, or as big as you want, I make it just small enough to be hidden, but still be a good size for when I loose gps signal, it will show up nice.

Don't forget to say thanks If I was of any help!

I won Iguidance 2009 which the TTS doesn't work with in WM6.5. Any solutions for that?

I use to have iguidance for my Dell x51v. You should use igo8 > TomTom7 > Garmin XT > iguidance

Nobody had been posting. I love this software and its the only one I use everyday.

Did you know this software is portable? I like software like this, even for PC.
