Not that it makes a tremendous difference, but the iPaq / TomTom 3=20
bundle at Dixons Heathrow is =A3339 not =A3329 as I originally stated.=20
Of course this is the duty free shop, not any high street shop that=20
happens to be near Heathrow ;-)

Also, there appears to be some problem with recent TomTom upgrades=20
and H2210, details in this forum=20

However the original version 3 software and possibly the very latest=20
upgrade seem to be OK.
