I tried it last night, and it not only didn't update, but now my PCM doesn't recognize the Tooki. Hopefully, there's a way to reinitialize it, although I have already tried disconnecting and reconnecting the Tooki's power.

Happened to me too. It'll work. The first time around it saw the tooki BT and my phone and said it was updating but got an error/failure message. The tooki died, PCM didn't recognize it.

I turned off the PCM, locked the car, and then repeated the process and it found the tooki and updated the packets just fine. On the second try I moved the laptop (thinkpad) from the workbench to the top of the car just to be sure it was close enough. Not sure that really meant anything, but it worked.

Just try it again

Since mine works fine, it doesn't look like I really need to apply this update. Any idea what the update does?

Without having read your post, I decided it was worth a try to just try to see if the laptop would see the Tooki even though the PCM wasn't seeing it. Well, how about that! The Tooki updater application immediately found the Tooki and ran the update. All appears well now.

The application notes say that it fixes a problem with some Cayennes that have PCM but don't have an amplifier in the PCM chain. It also addresses some "diagnostic issues."

I'd say if you are having no problems and are not looking for adventure (joke), then I'd wouldn't bother updating. In my case, I was confident I'd get support from Nav-TV if I had a problem, so I wanted to try it just to find out how it might work on a non-trivial future update.

For what it's worth, I ran the update from the Windows Vista Boot Camp partition on my MacBook Pro. I was sitting in the car when I ran the update.

Sounds like the updater application needs some work to function as intended (at least for some situations like mine and Bob-Ft. Worth's). Maybe it has something to do with trying to do it in Texas.

That's exactly what I was planning to do. Run the update from the Vista portion of my MacBook Pro. At least I know it'll work that way.

I was able to reach the Nav-TV download at this link: http://www.navtv.com/SW/tookiupdate.zip

It's working as I am posting.

Bob,
Here is where I put my Treo. (When no one is in the passenger seat)
The seat belt lock mechanism holds it against the plastic in place and it does not go anywhere but at the same time it's easily accessible for when I need it.

The Treo is thicker than the I-Phone though so not sure how it would work for you.

Walt

I just leave my iPhone in my pocket. It seems to work fine.
