I have the VIA180. I got an email from TT yesterday stating that there is a "mandatory" update and to follow the enclosed destructions.

At the time TT's information was less than forthcoming with regards to why I had to apply this update. It took reading forums to find the info out.

TomTom is woeful when it comes to update descriptions and what they fix.

You must have the base model and I have the middle model.
Add the two together and you get the VIAGRA540 which is apparently the ultimate.  :whistler:
