Will Traffic antenna make most Tomtoms traffic compatible?

I had my 340tm stolen but they left the cord. I called tomtom and they generously offered to transfer my lifetime maps to a new unit (they specified a 335 or 340) but said that I would have to get a traffic unit (and use my cord) to get traffic again. Is that true? Can't I use the cord with any of the XL series and get traffic reports?
Also, is there any reason they specifically said the 335 or 340 ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
In my personal experience

In my personal experience, I have been able to use the charger cord/traffic antenna from one XXL540T with another XXL540 that was not sold originally as a XXL540T. It is speculation on my part, but I would expect the same to be true with other models.
The only reason that I can think of for them to say that you need to specifically get a 335 or 340 would be if the 335 and 340 models use a different connector than other models (such as my XXL540). I have no idea if that is the case, but I would check it out as a possibility before I made a purchase.
