The good news is the application is great. I loved the product once I got it working. Part of the set up struggles were admittedly due to a) not having a sufficient size SD Card b) being in a rush.
That being said, the biggest hassle for me was the activation server. When you first get your TomTom, you're going to receive a credit card with a Product Code. You enter that into the TomTom Navigator to get your Device Code. Here's where it got tricky for me. You visit the web to get the third and final code - the Activation Code. So, three codes: Product Code (on credit card), Device Code (from your Treo) and then the Acvtivation Code. The activation server asks you to enter the Product Code, then the Device Code and then should present you with the Activation code. I was getting script errors from their site. I tried refreshing my browser, changing browers, but no luck. Finally, the next morning it was working. I'd bet this has been resolved as I wasn't the only one. Also, be sure to use the screen keyboard to enter your activation code.
Once you have everything loaded and have the right codes, the app is easy. The one thing I noticed was that somethings the TomTom didn't see the GPS receiver. When I get in the car, I just cycle my Bluetooth on the Treo. Once I figured that out, the GPS was communicating with the Treo every time.
Hopefully, you experience none of the activation issues.
Let me know if you have any questions with the set up and let me know your feedback on the product.
