Well, wasn't there a thread recently which mentioned that Tomtom Go runs on Linux?

I think I'd rather buy a tomtom than put win on a z

Drop the idea of TOMTOM on Zaurus, it will bring absolutely no good.

All my reports and testing were made (if no other mention given) on SL-C1000

TomTom licensing explicitely forbids the use of their proprietary software on devices that it isn't intended for.

Check out TomTom Go license, also the PocketPC/Palm software makes similar references but limits it to supported devices. There is also a clause about not transferring the data files to other devices (excluding backup).

I can't be bothered digging out the box for my TomTom Go and finding the clause but I can assure you that it is there.

I guess it will be useless for what you're trying to do ... it was running over a x86 emulator (bochs) and was too slow to be really useable (imagine running w98 on a old 386  .. beside I don't know if it would be able to handle any device connected to the zaurus such as a gps receiver)

Two comments:

1) Did you agree to those clauses when you bought the device? I find it hard to believe that any company can put restrictions on you _after_ you purchase since the deal is done _at_ purchase.

2) What if Kellogs decide to put a clause on the inside of their "Special K" packets saying "This food stuff may not be stored in a different container, or consumed by someone not related to the purchaser, or by anybody on a Tuesday." You really gonna obey that?

These companies are really taking the piss - and we're generally suckers for it.

NB: I do _not_ condone illegal copying of software - but trying to declare that you cannot _move_ a piece of software to a different device is dishonest.
