It IS possible with copilot to put the routes in but it's not straight forward and I always forget how to do it
so for ADUK days and the like I use my (probably older than your 540) TomTom One v1... and rely on the smartphone apps to get to and from them...

How do these compare with Google Maps navigation? Could you use predefined routes with it?
Have you looked at things like Skobbler? Not sure if it can import routes though.

I find CoPilot does the routes fine. You just have to work out where CoPilot stores its saved routes and copy yours into the same directory after first converting them using a utility such as ITN Convertor. It's not as hard as it sounds. It could still be a lot easier though.

In their generosity, they are offering me a 20% discount on another device, which would make it, in the case of a GO6000, only about £10 more expensive than buying the same item on Amazon. Wonder if I've got a case under the Sale of Goods Act.
