    Simply bring it back to Argos , ask them if any of their other stores have the Go Live 1000 and collect it from them , or you could check stock levels yourself.

    Not 100%, but AFAIK Argos will exchange good in any store not only where the items were bought.

    update:
    went to argos today screeming :) about false advertising so they finally will swap back go 950 live for go live 1000 without extra money but no available stock in Dublin for now and all deliveries to thier main warehouse from TomTom postponed (middle of February : probably due to loads of faulty units :) ) so have to wait around 3 weeks

    It should do on a live account. Mine does.

    Is there any sort of scenic route option for the GO 1005 that would prioritise coastal roads etc? I'm planning a trip down through France but it would be a bit of a waste to just see the highways.

    There is not I'm afraid.
    This was discussed before, but nothing ever materalized.

    I agree, But I would imagine there could be a lot of contradictions on whats scenic.

    have a tomtom via 120 and a nokia 6303i, bought safety camera subscription and everything seemed to work fine at first using bluetooth connection between the devices
    now safety camera zone warnings are not appearing on device anymore even though the speed camera menu is accessible and alerts enabled. is there a compatability problem between the devices in relation to the speed cameras.......plus there is no dial tone when trying to ring someone which is also a pain....any help people
    thanks

    It seems you have a connection issue between your device and your phone. Have you tried deleting & repairinf the devices.
    Also if you goto Services> Speed Cameras >Alert Settings is there a speaker icon beside
    Fixed Cameras
    Mobile Cameras
    Traffic Light Camera
    Average Speed Check
    BiDirectional Cameras?

    Are you getting other audio from the device?
    Voice Guidence & other alerts ok?
    Try a soft reset first.
    With the device powered on press and hold the power button untill the device restarts with the TomTom Drums.
    If that doesnt work you could try a factory default
    Settings > Arrow right to last page > Reset Factory Settings.

    Latest build (1027) went onto production servers yesterday.
    It may take time to propagate to all devices.
    Try close & restart My TomTom
    Goto settings cache. click empty the cache & save settings
    Before connecting your device press & hold power button untill it restarts with the drums.
    Connect to PC & see if that works.
    When Web Page opens , ensure you are logged in & also try refreshing the page.

    Bought a 1000 model there and on the same firmware as stuff.hunter tried everything to get it to kick in but no joy.

    My device reboots randomly done it 3 times so far so hopefully a firmware fix will sort that.

    What version are the latest maps? Mine are on v850.2827

    Are these old too? Sorry for questions but I presume once they have sorted their software out we will get the map updates free as we have missed out?

    Have you tried the 20 second reset described above.
    Latest maps are v865 due later this month.

    Does kool have any clue when updates will be released ? The product was released last November and still basic functionality of adding and updating maps isnt there. I may take this back to Currys soon, this may sound like a knee jerk but I dont want to be left with a half baked sat nav
