isPermaLink="false">http://www.geardiary.com/?p=63131#comment-64469</guid> <description>Anna - your are correct - my apologies.  The TTS didn&#039;t operate during my testing and I thought it was because TTS wasnt there - in fact I investigated further after seeing your comment and found out that I had incorrectly selected a voice that didn&#039;t support TTS (some voices do, some don&#039;t).  When I changed that to voice that had TTS support (Heather or Ryan in U.S. English) - then it worked as you say - with full TTS support.  Again, my apologies for the misunderstanding!  I will correct this in the review as well.   Now I&#039;d like to see the voice support and the text support for all the languages line up with each other too!
To mozbius:  I&#039;d love to review TomTom as well, but we&#039;ve had difficulty getting a copy from TomTom to review and my personal resources are limited so unfortunately I can&#039;t purchase all the titles out there.  I can say I have purchased copies of TomTom in the past for my Windows Mobile devices and they have operated well.  My only concern is that they (as well as Sygic) use TeleAtlas maps (TomTom owns TeleAtlas).  These maps are generally fine, but sometimes have more errors - in the U.S. than their Navteq counterpart.  There&#039;s at least one significant error near my home that involves roads that have been there for many many years and TeleAtlas has still not corrected it in their maps even though I reported it more than a year ago!  Navigon and iGo are using Navteq maps and CoPilot is using it&#039;s own proprietary maps (which I&#039;ve mentioned here and in my previous review of their product).  CoPilot had the same map error and I reported it to them earlier this year and it has since been corrected in their maps.   That said - Sygic makes up for a lot of things by having a very rich feature set that I appreciate.  TomTom has historically been pretty solid for me, although it&#039;s interface doesn&#039;t supply as much information as I would really like to see.   It is definitely one of the most popular navigation product series out there though!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anna &#8211; your are correct &#8211; my apologies.
