Coyote use?

European owners...any of you using Coyote (speed camera detection, etc)? Is it worth it? Exactly how does it work? Thanks for any info. When I get my 335 next week I have a feeling it's going to cost me a lot €€ here in speed camera hell (Brussels).

No, never used them. With my TomTom I was using the www.scdb.info folks for a stationary camera POI. I've yet to find a way to import custom POI files to the BMW navi though.

True, it works very well. The community is large.
It saved points on my driving license at several occasions for sure.
However it's not 100% reliable. Don't overshoot the speed limit too badly.

It is worth the money... ups! it's free!

The regular fixed speedtraps are going to be signaled with precision, but it all depends of the community, if very few "explorers" are in your area - iCoyote users - you're not going to be able to detect a single variable speedtrap.

Google a little bit and see what app is the most used within the areas / countries that you're gonna travel within!
