1. Not at this time.

2. Disregard you downloads. Go here for Auto-installation: TomTom Automatic Navcore Installation
Read the instructions carefully. Select SE_Navcore.9.026.483454_32mb_Devices,rar
Disregard the 32mb Devices in the title.

3. Western and Central Europe 855.2884

loquendo will give you text to speech computer voices so instead of trun left and right you get street names and road/highway numbers

north amercia map 855.2884 will give you i q routes

1. If you want to update your NA map, now is the time to do it. NA 855.2884

2. You already have LoquendoTTS computer voice/voices, & it/they should be OK.

you will still get "in 200 yards turn left just it will be followed by the street name or number" which is very handy in unfamiliar areas

To avoid any confusion, LoquendoTTS is standard on a GO 930.

should i be putting these 2 maps onto the root of my tt after i've deleted the original maps?
as it seems there isn't enough space, mp3 and audiobooks is empty
i have 3.74gb total size, 3.50gb free if i delete original maps, but need additional 420mb to fit these 2 maps
should these maps be going on a sd card, if so, do these units take sdhc?

Remove the original maps. If both new maps will not fit on your internal, then yes, put the one you will be using the least on a card. Also put a copy of your device's ttgo.bif file on the card before you patch the map.
Units with bootloader 5.5015 (navcore 8.300) or newer will accept sdhc cards.
