With reguards to registration. If you register the pocket pc version can you still install and register the laptop or tablet pc versions? Or is it one of those you can only activate one version of the software?

I have used iGuidance for years. Since version 2.x. Unfortunately I have had to buy the program about 6 times due to "upgrades" and such. I find the program as a whole, unpolished. There is always some little bug or quirk you must learn to deal with in every version of the app I have used. But once you figure those out it works pretty well.

This time, though, I bought Tomtom 6. One of the things that held me back from buying Tomtom originally was the online activation. However, now that iGuidance has the same thing.... :roll:

Oh and the map loader was one of the best features of iGuidance 3.x. Now that is gone as well... The text to speech really isn't important to me either.. Especially given it's performance. There is a registry hack you can make to disable the text to speech all together or enable it for all speech and replace the stock phrase voice entirely.

Over all I would say this review has reaffirmed my choice in moving to Tomtom 6.

Excellent review, thanks!
