I just bought an HTC Touch Cruise, and I travel a lot to Mexico, but there is no GPS Maps for TomTom.
I have two options:
1) To find a program that runs on the Polaris and has Mexico's maps
2) To use the Polaris as an external GPS device for my laptop that already as the software with the maps.
Can anyone help me with any of those options?

Aint it possible to use googlemaps? with a free program called QuickGPS (if I recall correctly).
I've been reading a lot on HTC devices, so I'm not 100% sure if its there for touch cruise, but most programs are windows based so u could always try, but u will have to find it for yourself (program) and test it yourself since I do not own a HTC device -yet-

Have a look at Fransons GPS Gate it will port your GPS data off the phone via a number of methods including BT see http://franson.com/gpsgate/ - Mike

Hi, there is a free program that will let you use your pocket pc as an external gps, it's called GPS2Blue, you can get it here: http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html
BTW, I tried destinator 6 in mexico city and it didin't work well, garmin works much better.
