Fair do's if they have made it work fie with the internal GPS unit. last time I looked it wouldn't and you needed to use a little deamon that would present itself as a BT GPS unit internally. TomTom themselves could not supply details of when it would be fixed at the time. the deamon was not a 'hack' to use dodgy software, only to make the legit stuff work with the internal GPS unit.

I have an external BT GPS anyway ( which is more convienient in a car as you can position it for better reception. cars with heated windscreens block GPS signals so your phone would struggle to get a lock. ) so it was always a moot point for me
