Just read it again, you don't need to flash the ROM to run Tomtom, it's just a case of copying files to a SD card, then activating the maps.

There are many different types of satnav, some (like the Binatone) are easy to unlock, some are much more difficult, and some are impossible.

In reality most are pocket PC devices running windows ce, optimized (crippled) to run one programme only, with a bit of work they can run other programmes, or even boot to a desktop like a PC.

APPLICATION DOWNLOADS.

Tomtom tutorial.
and use this pre-prepared SHELL.ini (TTNOnBinatone.zip)
Copy the Navigator folder and the SHELL.ini file to the root of an empty SD card, Insert into your device, Restart the device and then start navigation to install Tomtom, Follow the tutorial to setup and activate your maps.
You must use a separate SD card reader as you CANNOT activate your maps via ActiveSync or WMDC!

On a Binatone there is no need to flash the ROM to run Tomtom.
