Welcome to our forums.
Yes you can install it on that device but you will likely have to configure the correct GPS receiver settings.

Yes TT5 works perfect on the Acer n35. Load on card & install. GPS settings are:

Other Wired GPS -- 4800 Baud Rate -- GPS on Navigator.

Hope this helps

i had the same problem it is because tomtom takes a lot of power to run and combined with the gps antennae taking all the power the backlight gets it, so you need realy to have it pluged into the power lead whilst using it, so i use tomtom for the car of which i have installed on a seperate sd card from destinator and when i wont to use the n35 walking around etc i pop in the destinator card and use destinator! by the way tomtom eats battery power at an amazing rate!!
