1/ TOM TOM is excellent, else it wouldn't be so popular! You can find out more at http://www.tomtom.com/products/category.php?ID=1&Language=1 and you should be able to buy it at consumer electronics stores like **** Smith, or perhaps for cheaper off eBay.
2/ Please search the forums next time! The latest version of WINDOWS is Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, however the latest ROM of Windows (check Start > Settings > System > Device Information in your Magician) is 1.13 (T-Mobile) or 1.12 official O2, as mentioned earlier.
3/ Not a clue. However I have managed to google a review of TomTom + SirfStar II GPS with a HTC Wizard (http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=3206), which is pretty close to what you seem to be seeking!

Cannot change GPRS Settings - Locked to AT&T
I just upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.1 and it worked like a charm and from first glance it looks amazing however I am stuck with no Internet access.
I am not using AT&T network and everything works fine (calls in/out) but the GPRS settings are locked to AT&T.
I tried adding a new connection but it won't work since the pre-configured AT&T settings cannot be removed.
Can anyone help me unlock the GPRS settings?
Thanks

Yes, I'm curious too.
I don't have a blackjack, only a vox (and mpx200)

In the text is written under the xp section that it is specific for at&t, but at the vista version not. So I don't know if the remark is for both versions. You can try
A quote from samsung.com:
This upgrade contains several enhancements and features. Highlights are listed below.
Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1w/AKU1.0.1
Windows Mobile 6.1 includes new features such as bla bla bla useless info

AKU 1.0.1 means build number between 19202 and 19212, so that build is too old, because there is a newer build 19593 (AKU 1.1.7) from Pantech Duo
yep, and even a 19700 in the Q9h!

From the About:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard
CE OS 5.2.19208 (Build 19208.1.0.1)
Radio Version i617UCHH2
RIL Version 2.002
...and for the record, in typical AT&T fashion, they ****ed with stuff to be "smart" and it broke stuff. I'm an actual AT&T customer and I have problems getting some things to connect because of their STUPID, ****ING locked internet settings. So for those of you that are on T-Mobile or Rogers or whoever with an unlocked BJII, you'll have to unlock the internet settings to be able to connect.
Now where's my reg editor so I can fix that?

ATT ICS uses "isp.cingular" (tethering) whereas MEdia Net uses "wap.cingular" (general internet).
Also, the ATT ICS and MEdia Net entries in the connection settings dialog are read only and won't let you edit them, But if you navigate to:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4...}\Connections
There will be 2 keys in there. one for ATT ICS and MEdia Net. In those keys there will be a value of ReadOnly. Change the value for these from 1 to 0 and reboot your phone. These connections should now be editable.

app unlock not working
followed the instructions on a fully, properly upgraded BJ2 (radio and OS confirmed) and followed the instructions for the modaco hack and sda unlocker and nothing is changed. I cannot modify the GPRS setting nor make modification in the registry...any clues?
Has anyone been able to add Google Search or a Weather plugin to the new "Sliding" Homescreen. I remember seeing a weather and stock quotes Home Screen plugins in the new HTC phones. I believe these plugins where custumized for the HTC phones, but they "should" work with the new WM 6.1 BJII Home Screen. Someone over at HoFo mentioned that the weather and stocks plugins might be for WM Pro (touchscreen) and therefore won't work on WM 6.1 Standard. I used Google Search with 6.0, but it won't install in the "Sliding" HomeScreen of 6.1.
Anyone?

check out the link in my post. I followed that and had no problem editing and deleting the settings. SDA App Unlock worked fine too. Don't bother with the GPS unlocker. I don't think you need it anymore.
*BUT*
It worked for me so it should work for you...
Good luck!
Remapping the BJII's CV and AT&T keys is easier in WM 6.1 than it was in WM 6.0. But I have been unable to find or figure out how to remap the Press-Hold Home Key in WM 6.0 or 6.1. I want to remap the Press-Hold Home key to start CeleTask instead of Task Manager as I find CeleTask a bit more useful. I like the new new Sliding HomeScreen, but it does not allow one to use apps like Right Menu and Smartoolkit. I know it can be done because I have used XDA cooked ROMs in my Qtek 8310 that had CeleTask remapped to the Press-Hold Home Key. Anyone?
I am glad I found this, works great on my wifes bj ii

I received continuous failure when installing pTravelalarm on my new Touch HD (previously on other devices like HTC diamond no problem!)
I remember once to have tried a small applet which could free the device from this software blocking feature, but I cannot recollect the name of this tiny application.
Can somebody help and possibly point to the link to download it?
Thanks
Saulo.
this tiny app was working with WM 6.0, but I am now running on Windows Mobile 6.1, device called htc touch hd,
Thanks
Saulo
what network operator are you with
China Mobile.
But I am an expat and I use WWE (English) based HTC, which is TOUCH HD
im not sure then im sure it might have something todo with the operators config have you tried another rom on it
I Using WM 6.5 build 21501 Titanium Neo Shadow WWE ROM in Doopod 818Pro I was confused why the Bluetooth no File Transfer Service and Bluesoleil on my windows Show My Phone As Desktop and i scan another WM device(HTC touch Diomond), Bluesoleil Show The WM device As a smart phone.
Does anyone know this problem?
Thanks in Advance
I'm currently using the MSD series 6.5.1.7 ROM with SPB Mobile Shell v3 and it's a really nice combination. However recently, New Zealand has past a new law that does not allow you drive and hold a mobile phone at the same time. This means I need to use my blue tooth headset again and do voice dialing. I have looked on the net for a voice dialing app that will work on WM6.5 and it seems that there is only "TellMe" from Microsoft and it is not for our iMate K-JAM/Wizard phones.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
I have been using Microsoft Voice Command V. 1.6 for a number of years on my Wizard with all recent versions of Windows Mobile. I have a recent version of 6.5 and it works just fine. once you install VC map it to button 4 and the bluetooth device will activate it when you push the button on your BT device. You can download VC 1.6 from various sources, but know that it is not a freeware program

Thanks for the heads up - I tried it on the MSD series 6.5.1.7 but was not able to get it to work for me. I'll give it another go.
