I love the Tom-Tom. The only thing that could be improved is the screen for the letters. The keys are very small, and even tho I’m a woman, it’s hard to press the right key in order to tell it an address. I also need to find a hard case for carrying.
I was in Europe for business and the taxi drivers all seem to use TOM TOM GPS systems. When asked they seemed to find it the best. I purchased the XL340 and as far as a GPS is concerned you couldn’t ask for a better system. You can get updates and POIs from the TOM TOM Home web site and the directions that the unit gives are as clear as can be. Would buy again.
I think this is a good product, but they don’t choose most of the time the best route,
and if you decide to take a short cut, they should adjourn themselves to the final
destination, instead of over and over and over wanting to return to the point that
you left. This is a no no way to return where you already crossed over. At this
moment I would not suggest this product. Magellano is a better product.
The IQ Routes provides much better routing than my Garmin 255WT, even though the Garmin has traffic data.
The Garmin uses speed limits on the map and adjusts for traffic, but the traffic updates are not fast enough and some roads don’t report traffic congestion.
The TomTom uses IQ Routes which uses real-world driving data based on the time of day to calculate the routes. Much better in the Washington D.C. area.
This unit has everything I need. Screen is bright and clear. Voice very clear. A bit slow rerouting, but not severe.
I would recommend to anyone.
