RE: [ukha_d] Vario II - speed of WM5 ?

[Marcus Warrington <marcus.warrington@xxxxxxxxxx>]

HY,



Is the M600 the same as the Vario II ? Looks like the same processor
(Samsung 400) not sure about memory. I'll have to have a quick google.



When you say all hell breaks loose I assume you mean that the phone
takes priority and TomTom is interrupted ? or do you mean that you have
to abandon TomTom before you can use it as a phone ?

;) Me 2 ... that's why I've only had a PayYGo phone before :-)

I have an M600 running TOMTOM and it takes well over 1 min for TOMTOM to
start up and display the map screen.

Once it is running the speed is fine, but don't ever try to access an
application outside of TOMTOM! Chaos breaks lose if someone tries to
ring
you!

Luckily I don't have that many friends.
