I reported this to TomTom 2009/9/1 and this was their reply.
"At this time, the program that will allow you to operate your device through your computer (known as the online emulator) is undergoing updates. Since the Google Maps connection runs through this program, it also will not be accessible until our updates have completed. We regret any inconvenience that this may cause. Although we do not have an estimated date for the completion of these updates, please rest assured that TomTom is doing everything possible to expedite them. Thank you for your continued patience as we continue working to improve your customer experience."
I've never seen the term "updates" used as an euphemism for "bug fixing" before.
