Software Review : TomTom Mobile for Microsoft Smartphone September 19, 2004 [MS Smartphone] | By Edward J. R.

The thing that amazed me most with the POI list was that all my local petrol stations and more importantly cash points (ATM for non-U.K. readers) machines were listed with the details of which bank owned the machine. To read this review in full click here - it includes also many screen shots - out of necessity those screen shots are made with a digital camera because no other way of making screen shots of Microsoft Smartphone is working when TomTom Mobile is running...
