TomTom - Search by coordinates

[Desmo]

My mum is flying off in a hot air balloon this weekend (as long as the weather is fine) and on their site they list a few launch places. They give general directions but no postcode to search. They do however show GPS coordinates.

Is there a way I can pop them into TomTom? Can't seem to find anything.

Well, I know the Tom Tom Go 510 will accept latitude/longitude for a destination, and I'd be surprised if yours didn't. That's what you should be looking for anyway.

Not as far as I know. I wanted to enter the BBQ by longitude and lattitude but couldn't find a way of doing it.

Not directly, but I did read you can do it in a hacky sort of way. Build your own ov2 file with the details and then use it as a custom POI.

[edit]Apparantly this will do it:

Surprised. :shocked:

Thought that was one of the basics. Maybe I'm just biased by Garmin GPS.

Oh, I should point out this it TT5 on my mobile.

I'll take a look at Daz suggestions :)

On TT5 on mine there is a button for "GPS Position". Never pressed it though :p
