    Automobile [au] Firmware Upgrade - Activate Secret SatNav & Free TomTom

    Have you bought a P3600 before May 2007 ?

    You may or may not know that contained within its shiny sleek interior a GPS (Global Positioning System) satelite navigation chip lies dormant.

    Those nice people at HTC are giving a free firmware upgrade to switch on this hardware.

    See here http://www.europe.htc.com/support/software/htcp3600.html

     This upgrade will add the following new features and improvements:

    • GPS receiver capability enabled.
    • Browser improvements (mobile CSS, WAP, Iframe, etc.).
    • Bluetooth improvements.
    • New data network icons to differentiate between GPRS, EDGE, 3G and HSDPA connections.
    • Streaming player added.

    Once you have upgraded (follow the instructions carefully) you can then download a FREE taster edition of TomTom Navigator 6.

    Its important to upgrade the firmware before you download the TTN6 or you could end up in bother!

    Hi

    Because the firmware update does a hardware reset, you will loose the TomTom update and have to reload it again.

    Hope this helps
