HD traffic (including mobile speed traps) by TT or 3D live traffic by Garmin

After 3 years time to replace the 3rd Garmin. However I am tempted to go for TT as they have HD trafic including reported speedtraps in real time. As I understand the TT has a GPRS (voda) card build in to send and receive intel (GPRS). As a driver spots a mobile speedtrap he can press a button to warn (by HD traffic signal) other drivers. Very handy indeed....

As I now understand Garmin can connect (by bluetooth) to 3D Live traffic (Europe & South africa) to pair with your Mobile phone. Every 2 min you will receive an update for accidents, jams ect. Not a word spent on speed traps.....

Only the database (=known spots/locations of speed traps) which is not real time is mentioned.

Also I understand the 2xx5 is for android mobile phones to pair (not Iphone) and 2xx7 for Iphone, correct?

Next week the 3597 will be in the shops and it is decision time. Stay at Garmin or go to TT.

Thx in advance

    I'm staying but disappointed that Garmin Live is only supported on Apple and Android. I'm converting from Apple to Windows 8 on all fronts and Garmin Link like many other has chosen not to publish for Windows Phone 8..
