better to have just the beta warning on all the time

It covers the text of the current road... quite iritating if you are on a street with a long name

I am pretty sure i made a stupid mistake (it was late last night), but...
can someone point me to my error ?

Many thanks in advance,

Superbowl

This is exactly how mine behaves.. I checked that mscomm32.ocx is in system, system32, and frontend_beta3 folder.. And yes, it's registered.. The previous beta worked fine..

So far so good... the only problem I had was that there was a saved route from the last time I used the software. The new version went straight into the configuration, and it would blank out the screen after a couple of seconds and try to recalculate the route, and not allow me to finish the setup. I just restarted the app and clicked "OK" in the configuration, cleared the route and went back into the settings to check everything out.

I can't seem to disable the "speed camera" option, and setting the GPS to advanced/sirf keeps getting reset. Not sure if it's a problem with the receiver itself or what... I'm using the MS/Pharos USB unit that shipped with MS Streets 2k5 over USB (seen by XP as "COM8").

I have a question about the SAPI plugin though... I have VR/TTS at home via AT&T Natural Voices -- best damn sounding voices in the whole world IMO

-- is it possible to use these voices with D3 instead by enabling this plugin?

I'll test the app fully tonight on the way home and see what if I can find any bugs.

Mine allows me to use any installed Speech engine that is SAPI.

More stable and robust then ever before. Nice one, brother!
Just for my information: is Destinator3 FE going to get (at least) basic keyboard support for those of us not having touchscreens?

Thanks NM, been checking MP3car every day for another release cannot wait to try it!!!!!!

Some great work there NM, I must ask though - why the beta/mp3car.com advertising ? It seems more stable than most FINAL carpc software out there!
