Need iGO for Wince 4.2

Wed Sep 08, 2010 8:15 am

Need some version of igo (primo, 8.3 etc) that works on wince 4.2 based device

All iGO do work on CE4.20
On a side note : a 32MB device is very limited and TTS needs even more memory

If you can get TTS working on a 32MB device then consider yourself very lucky. It normally takes 64MB. In order to use TTS for WinCE 4.2 you must have the proper .dlls,

I believe iGO + TTS need 48MB minimal free memory. So a 64MB device COULD meet this IF the OS and whatever runs in the background (unlock?) is less than 16 MB. 128MB is recommended. TTS rarely (never) works on a 32MB device.
That remark I made because the device is not specified, only that it's CE 4.2. Many CE4.2 devices are only 32MB. Many, not all.
Mio Cx20 e.g. have 64 MB I believe. PDA's with CE4.2 usually have 64MB, some exceptions excluded.
32MB is often sufficient to run iGO properly, without the eye candy. But trying to calculate long routes will be hard anyhow.

Don't need TTS, just basic igo soft with full eu maps. Nothing more :)

btw device is crappy Bemi-nav s900

Any iGO8, Amigo and even Primo should work on that crappy device.

Requirements for Primo:
at least:
RAM
- Minimum 64 MB
- Minimum 42 MB free (TTS) or 35 MB (no TTS)
- 128 MB required for optimal performance
CPU
400+ MHz ARM 9 or 11
OS
Windows CE 4.2, 5.0, 6.0
Resolution
WQVGA (480x272)
VGA (320x240)

I have Primo running on a Medion Gopal PNA 210T that has 64MB RAM and WinCE4.2 and a 320x240 screen, I have the latest UK&ROI maps, TTS, Buildings/Landmarks and Dem files working, All works ok bar an occasional crash (Out of memory?) but it auto reboots itself back to where it was, So it's all good. Now if only the gurjon skin was compatable...

Just be patient. Gurjon will support 320*240 the moment it's officially released. He only supports the official releases, which does not matter for us.
I even wonder why NavNGo waits that long to release a 320*240 data.zip, while at first they said Primo would be released on 480*272 and 320*240 at the same time.

Ahhhh didn't know that, I have it on a 480x272 Navman M400 as well, *waits patiently*

This is a new thread and is its own question. Therefore I am moving it into iGO discussions as its own.
