...I'd like to be able to tether my Tomtom Go 720 to my N900 in order to receive live traffic updates.
From what I've seen, thus far, tethering to the N900 hasn't been widely tested with a wide range of devices, so there may be other, yet unknown little gotchas requiring work arounds. If you attempt to tether your Go 720 and run into trouble, please post a request for help.

Thanks for this - I thought that it might be the case that I would be a guinea pig in doing this - fingers crossed!

i have a tomtom 730 which does not recognize n900 at all, tomtom does not even see the n900.
but n900 on the other hand see tomtom as a hands free device and it wants to pair.
In a bluetooth menu shows as HFP supported profile
so i would think tomtom does not support n900 as of yet

I think it is that the TomTom doesn't recognise the N900 as a phone and this is a problem with the N900, not TomTom.

I haven't tried tethering as my Tomtom is the live version with built in comms. I'm just using the hands free for the rare call I get when in the car.

I am looking to upgrade to an N900 very soon, but have a requirement that has been causing me trouble for the past couple of years. ideally I'd like to be able to tether my Tomtom Go 720 to my N900 in order to receive live traffic updates. This was a nightmare with an HTC Touch Dual, and has just broken with my currnt Nokia E71.
Not sure whether this is the correct place to post such a question, but any thoughts? I like having a seperate Sat Nav device, but may have to go with a software solution ...
Cheers
(Oh and anyone know when it will be available on Orange?
