Ive been thinking of getting tom tom for my xda2i, can anyone give me any advice on where to buy this with all the stuff that i need? I would like advice from anyone who has bought tom tom for their alpine and how much i would be looking to pay. Thanks in advance for help.

ArgyleMoss,
If you intend in getting TomTom for your XDA IIi, make sure that you get an MMC card and NOT an SD Card!
Lots of issues with TomTom locking up with SD cards (even Transcend 80X)

ok i'm gonna sound thick here but what is the difference between a mmc and sd card please :oops: :oops:

[checks]

The size/shape of the MMC Card and the SD Card are identical.

Maximum transfer rates of SD are faster than that of MMC.
SD cards have a thicker casing and are more durable and resistant to electrostatic discharge.

SD includes a small switch on the side of the card that has two settings: Locked and Unlocked. If you set the card to the locked position, devices will not be able to write to the card, erase data from the card, etc.

Not sure, but the MMC may require less power to work and as a result work fine with XDA IIi (known issue with power to SD cards)

I bought a Kingston 2 GB sd ELITE PRO, and it seems to work just fine. I made some research and this specific model, it is an SLC (single layer cell) memory. These kind of memory need less power like MMC and they should work fine with tomtom.
