hmm.. weird.. If I start navigation by entering a town where I live and then try to enter the address of my home, it won't find that address.. infact it finds only FOUR streets in my hometown (it's not really that small town) BUT if start navigatin by entering my postal number and then my home street, it finds my address.. and all the streets in my hometown..

Install leafpad, xterm to sygic.desktop and add -rfull to the command line parameter (i.e. add -rfull to the end of the Exce line)

I looked through the video which was posted (very nice!), however it didn't dive into the 'settings' menu..

Could someone please check if it is possible to configure it to use an external BlueTooth GPS? This is a go/nogo for me..

Ah, ok. I'll wait then. The built-in GPS is rubbish, and requires you to be online to get proper lock (A-GPS). I only use satnav systems in areas where that's not an option.

Credit card ready, but won't buy until that's fixed! :D

the n900 does have this function built in.

Aha, so you mean if I configure this in the N900 settings Sygic will happily use it? It's not accessing the GPS directly? It sounds right, so I hope this is how it works.

Any of you Sygic-buyers own a BT GPS, by any chance? If you would test this I would be thankful! :)

I`m pretty sure that it will work....I have my old one in the car but I`m too tired to walk down 3 floors to check it :)
