something new in app 8.350. The other thing i noticed is that "POI along route" only finds POIs within about 30 miles of the current location and the destination, and then further filters them for POIs that have the green or yellow "near my route" arrow. So this means POIs on my route 50 miles away don't show up. Volume - I noticed the same severe volume drop with app 8.350, but unticking the "auto adjust to background noise" setting seemed to return things to more acceptable levels. My suspicion is that, in addition to tomtom's reported 10% drop in volume that was supposedly fixed in 8.351, I think tomtom introduced a new bug. The volume level with "auto adjust to background noise" selected never seemed to change like it used to with 8.302, so I think it is more of a microphone/ambient noise calculation error rather than a quieter speaker issue. Otherwise, I was very impressed with overall with the Tomtom. I estimate it saved me 10-15 hours on my trip, both by serving as a portable POI database, and by routing me around congestion and traffic. It also saved me numerous traffic headaches and gave me a more relaxing drive being able to listen to my MP3 library. Americans, do you want to have to throw away all your existing GPS devices, and be forced to buy newer more expensive ones? If not, contact Congress and the FCC, see here .
