Hi all,  
 
I'm thinking about buying additional maps for TomTom 3 and a SD or CF card  
(my Loox 610 can handle both) to store them.  
 
Is there a good reason to buy a faster memory type for TomTom, will the  
application run slow when it's calculating the route on a cheaper and  
slower card? Any experience anybody?  
 
 
Bye

I run TomTom off of a regular CF card. There's really no problem. The
biggest lag is the GPS refreah and the CPU doing the number crunching.
Going at 60mph (100kph), the lag is about 100-200 ft. Not bad unless one is
in a really complicated intersection where exits are very close. Betty will
correct you, plus on has too look out the window as well ;-)

All right, thanks!

What setup do you have?  I ask because you should experince no such lag, my  
setup is a 2210 with BT GPS (non Xtrac).

I've got an HP5550 and a CF card GPS (I got from Pharos systems). The lag I
mentioned is there, but is defenitely NOT a bother (perhaps I guessed wrong
at the lag as well; maybe it's more like 50 to 100 feet). I have just
happened to notice it when crossing over a river. The only time it has
screwed me uo in the past is in these complicated interstate intersections
where many roads come together and the exits are a bit complex. Needless to
say I try to keep my eyes focused outside with the occasional look inside at
Betty

Can somebody tell me the entire names of all files that are on a tomtom original map card  ?
 thank you !
