Tomtom voices?

Hi,

I've just been bought a Tomtom Smart 20 by my Grandma to help me drive to/from my Boyfriend, Home and Uni.

I've gotten used to the basic touch controls etc, but am wondering how I go about changing the voice to something like Homer Simpson as the Tomtoms are famous for?

I've downloaded the MyTomtom software, but don't know where to go from here.

Can anyone help?

Do you mean Start 20? If so, you need to download and install tomtom Home.
www.tomtom.com/services/service.php?id=16&tab=87
Once installed select 'Add Traffic, voices, safty cam..' button then the 'add voices' to be able to select new voices.

Alternatively, you can visit the tomtom page here
www.tomtom.com/page/voices

which appears to allow you to download voices directly.
You have to pay rip off prices in both instances unfortunately (though it's the same for competitor models though.)

Aaahh. Just looked at the top of that link I posted and it states:
'* Currently this functionality is not available for the TomTom GO 1000 series, GO LIVE 800 series, Start 20 series and all TomTom '

They must be rolling it out via myTomtom in the future. Sorry to not have been much help!
