Google maps to tomtom?

[ariel]

I've been plotting routes in google maps so can anyone help me with a way to get the route on to the TOMTOM please.

I also would be very interested in this, got a whole folder of google route links on my laptop to get through! (Sorry I know that doesn't help)

Tyre is your friend. I'll dig out a link in the morning for you.

I remember seeing this thread a while back.

Not sure if it works for Google but I haven't tried it myself

Yep, as mentioned above, you need TYRE. It's a superb piece of kit that lets you set waypoints on google maps and produce an itinerary file for the TomTom. I don't know if you can import data off your google account or not, but it certainly works very well as a standalone program and you can import/export itinerary files to your heart's content.

Be warned - it's addictive. You start seeing B roads and thinking, I wonder if that's any good? Before you know it you have a 100 mile route of all the local hooning roads plotted out and your car keys in hand.

Or maybe that's just me.
