Tiny, but Tough
A sleek design and a sharp display combine to make the TomTom ONE a vital companion on the road. THe ONE, 3rd edition comes pre-loaded with complete maps for the United States and Canada. Weighing less than 10 ounces and measuring 4.33 x 3.5 x 1.34 inches, the TomTom ONE can be easily installed in any vehicle. An included windshield suction mount holds it in place. Plus, with an operating temperature range of an icy -10 degrees to a sweltering 55 degrees Celsius (14 to 131 degrees Fahrenheit), the navigator is durable enough for New England winters or Arizona summers. The TomTom ONE is powered by an internal lithium ion battery that can be charged from your vehicle's cigarette lighter with the included 12-24V adapter.
Easy To Use
The user-friendly design also puts it a step above other navigation systems. The crystal-clear multicolor display makes for exceptionally easy viewing of maps, routes, driving directions, and other traveling information, such as mileage and distance. Measuring 3.5 inches, the TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 240 to provide brilliant two- and three-dimensional graphics. The device also features 32 MB RAM and 380 MHz CPU, making it responsive and zippy. Using the USB port and the provided cable, you can use your PC to add your own points of interest.

 I doubt the others are much better, at least the price is reasonable October 9, 2008
This product didn't meet my high expectations though I don't think the brand or model is to blame but I suspect all GPS systems have the same limitations. My complaints:
It doesn't say "Turn right on Elm St" rather it says "in 400 yards, turn right". (The screen does provide the name of the street though, you just don't get it verbally.)
It's like a cell phone....you're not always guaranteed you'll have reception. Doesn't do me a whole heck of a lot of good if all it states is "Lost signal 3 minutes ago". I sure wouldn't rely 100% on it...you better also have a hard-copy map in your car for the areas that have no reception.
If you approach an intersection where you will go straight, it says nothing. It only speaks when you need to make a turn. When I'm on a long, straight trip, I ride in silence for a long time and then when I finally need to make a turn, the voice actually startles me since I wasn't expecting it and hadn't heard it at every intersection.
It's got an unusual definition of 'quickest route'. I think mapquest maps out better paths than the TomTom. It seems to take me the long way around quite a bit.
Some positives (sorta):
It's sure better than nothing. I am completely geographically impaired and can't find my way through my own backyard! It gives me much more confidence in taking road trips alone and I'm not as stressed out trying to read my mapquest print-outs and reset my odometer to know when to turn. It's great to know that I'll be notified when it's time to turn and I need not worry about what my next step is. (For as long as I have a GPS signal, that is).
It's got some cool fun features, such as a warning if you are speeding and you have numerous bells/sounds/sirens to choose from as your warning sound if you choose to turn this option on. However, I don't know how many yards/miles you have to travel before it can recognize you're going to fast and I'm not sure how many mph over the limit you have to go. The only times I've gotten it to warn of speed is going 72 in a 65 mph zone, yet it never warned when going 55 in a 45....
So, I would not say that I regret buying it but I was hoping it would be better than it is. I'm sure glad I didn't buy a $400 model or something!
Love the TomTom October 9, 2008
The TomTom is easy to use and accurate. The mistakes made were because we didn't trust it! Great starter GPS that will serve most needs.
 get nowhere at Blue ridge Parkway October 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We got twice using TomTOm this week, first one is cannot find the hampton at Martinsville VA, got on Eden, NC which is more than 10 miles away. Second instance today is leading us to close to Little Switzerland at middle of nowhere, we felt we will die at Blue Ridge Parkway. The real destination is at least 70 miles south which TomTom failed a lot!!!
 tom tom good October 6, 2008
Item was for my daughter, who was just learning to drive, to enable her to get around town easily. It works great.
Easy to use, but routes are inefficient. October 5, 2008
This GPS is extremely user-friendly. Even my 66 year-old father (who was once afraid of catching a computer virus) uses his TomTom with ease.
That said, the routes chosen by the TomTom are often the worse possible way to get from where I am, to where I want to go. Mapquest and Google Maps directions are almost always different, and better.
If there's a congested route, it puts me through it. If there's an obscure rural road running parallel to a highway, it'll put me on the gravel. If there's a simple route, I'll be miles from it.
I use it when I'm lost, and in those cases, it will eventually get me to where I want to go. The selection of voices is fun. I enjoy the British gentlelady, Ms. Thatcher, who regularly advises me to "in 350 yards, keep left, and take the motorway" then "go straight on." But, bloody hell, who thinks of distances in yards?
It works, just not well. For the money, however, it's hard to beat.
