Tomtom Go 700 Sat Nav Maps
Does anyone have a Tomtom Go 700 Sat Nav? We have just moved to Oz and need to get hold of a map link for Perth, Australia. Thought it might be worth checking if anyone else has got one.

Yeah - I managed to get hold of the Australian maps file on a torrent site, but I ended up selling my TomTom before we got here anyway so I don't have it any more. Still, it is available.

To the best of my knowledge, the ones on the torrent sites are for the Navigator 5 series and not compatible with the Go series (I have a 510).

I have recently " obtained " tom tom mobile for my smart phone, so i'm sure tom tom go must be out there.
torrentz.com is another good one worth looking at.
i'll keep my eyes peeled for a link for you.

I think that once you have bought a map, you can contact TOmTom to get an update...for as long as that product lasts....but we might have been told the wrong info. But its worth contacting them to see.

Going to email and see what the story is, but has anyone else experienced the same? As luck has it we secured a rental on such a street!
