I know I'm going to get moaned at here ... but I've been looking at Alturon properly for the first time.

The PC side does basically what the PPC version does... what it does need is a decent interface and an SDK. I mean it does TMC, Day Night, 2D, 3D, 2D and 3D, Updates over the web for the maps etc, a really good POI set... just the same as the PPC.

I've emailed em to see what they will say ( I guess the answer will be no ) how ever the good side of this is that the app uses activex to work on both PPC and PC platforms which leads me to thing that key functions will comonaly controlable.... I mean they are not going to re-invent the wheel are they ?

So as long as you have direct x on you platform it will work.

Attached is a copy of the PPC SDK... for those of you that way out have a look so what u think...

OT: As is Europe in general

And, if I have to say it cause you couldn't get it from the smiley, I am just joking. We needed something between us and the Russians all those years.

Wish they had US maps. Seems like an interesting piece of SW.

Mate,
I wish your success with this. I REALLY want to move away from Destinator! I'd actually use Tom Tom Mobile on my phone then destinator 3 despite te huge difference in screen size!

If your serious I would consdier maybe contributing towards buying the software. I do like the look on Alturion.
