In other great news, I went for a drive today and Ivona worked! Not sure why as there are often large gaps when it's not driven. Perhaps the soft reboots last time I was playing with it weren't enough for the new setting to take effect.

Regardless, I highly recommend Google Nav with Ivona if you drive with data services enabled. The voice quality of this TTS engine is amazing and the Aussie accent is just about spot on. No choice NZ excent yut for our frinds across the dutch, aye bro.

When I get time I'll try to downloads maps for offline use. If that's successful, I'll consider it the perfect nav solution.

Then to make it the perfect head unit, I'll just need to sort out the issue with contacts. I'm thinking one of the tablet apps for sms and dialing might work.

Thanks again to all who have contributed to this.
