Performance of Orbit 2 vs original Orbit....

[garymansell]

Hi,

I have an original orbit and am wondering whether the new processor makes the new phone any faster than the original as I find TomTom to run a tad slow on my existing phone.

It shouldn't run slowly on an Orbit 1 you have something set incorrectly, start by looking at Change Preferences/ Enable_Disable POI if you have any selected at all de-select them, use the Warn when near POI function instead as this releases the processor to work on other things - it is a known problem that affects most PDA's running TT software - Mike

Just got my Orbit 2 yesterday, upgrading from a Vario 2 (TyTN/Hermes). And I found that surprisingly the performance of TomTom is pretty much the same between the two devices.

Wish we had the proper video driver... would be so much quicker.

Same here :D

Start up and GPS acquisition seem a lot quicker to me :D

That is probably down to HTC's QuickGPS (which utilises AGPS) program, instead of the speed of the device.
