Hi
Does anyone know when the TomTom RDS-TMC receiver is due in the shops?. I emailed them in June and told "we don't know when or how much". It is now appearing on sites Argos etc.. but still not in stock. emailed Tomtom again and no reply as yet (1 week ago). anyone have any more information as to a definite release date, sick to death of the GPRS charges I incur with traffic at the moment!

cheers.

OK, got an email back today:

Thank you for contacting TomTom Customer Support.

It should be out soon we do not have a date yet except Available Q4 2006.

You can randomly check the accessories list for the 910 for more information.


With best regards,

The TomTom Customer Support Team

Now that's what I call knowing your product!!!

My experience of dealing with TomTom "Customer Support" is pretty dire. I also object to the way that they are evasive about the age of their map data - when you buy TomTom maps you're never sure how up to date they are ('not very' is my impression).
