Hi, I also use TomTom Mobile 5 for Sat Nav on my Nokia 6680 with a generic Bluetooth Receiver and it rocks!!. It has been the best thing i have bought in a long time. I must admit that being given the spoken directions by Ozzy Osbourne is particularly amusing :) "Aaaaaaat thhheer end...

Hi, I'm not sure about copper nails but with the stumps i had i got my drill and bored some holes in the stumps directed to the centre from the top and then filled the holes with cooking salt. Stumps are getting looser and exhibit no signs of life :) Jon.
