Hello,
I just got my first TomTom (XXL 540 with lifetime Traffic and Maps) after days of research and browsing this and other GPS forums.
Hopefully i'll have a good experience with this one after switching over from Garmin.
I'm not having a good start, though! Already TomTom Home says that i can't install the required update because i'm short of disk space. What's the point of having updates if my device can't even install them right out of the box?
Next, i try to enter my Activation Code, and i get the error: "The activation code you entered is valid but the associated product doesn''t work with your device type or with the version of the application you have installed on it. Please install the latest version of the device application by clicking ''Update my device'' in the main menu. Then enter your activation code again."
Oh, you mean the update that doesn't fit on my device? Gee, thanks!
Then, i go to backup the device, and i get another error (failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.getIntPref]), so i guess backups aren't allowed either!
I hope there is a solution, or else it seems my stay on this forum will be quite short lived as i head directly to the exchange line!
