GOOD BUY June 29, 2008
My husband and I have been enjoying this GPS. We like that it is portable. It is usually in my car but when he travels to a city he does not know he takes it with him in a nice padded carrying case that came with it. I have been amazed that the suction cup that holds it to the window has never come off. We have been on some jarring roads and it stays put. It has been a help to both of us in finding new places without the hassle.
TomTom One XL review June 19, 2008
For a Brazilian, a GPS like this is a must, driving in the USA. Except for an afternoon in Atlanta, where it put me in a loop, making turns between I-75 and I-85, it guided me safely during four weeks. It is really a big help.

While this is not the best GPS navigational system out there with tons of bells and whistles, it gets the job done. Newer and more expensive models include voice recognition and text to speech features. I feel that these are overkill and not really needed, especially text to speech. How often are you able to actually read street signs before the intersection anyway? It is much easier to just be told right or left. A quick glance at the screen also shows the street name and your exit is overlayed in red. This is great for confusing highways with multiple ramps in one place.
I do have two issues I do have with this device. First, it would be nice if it told you which lane you need to be in. There were several times where I did not realize the lane I was in suddenly became an exit or split into another highway. The device does try to help by instructing to exit left or right far enough in advance to get you to move in that direction. One nice feature that I really never thought about before is that depending on your speed, the device gives you more or less warning on turns. At highway speeds it gives at least 2 miles warning. But at city speeds it gives yards or feet.
The second complaint is that the device saves your personal information on volatile memory and sips on the battery to keep it stored. If you do not charge the device regularly, the battery will eventual run out and your home information and preferences will be lost. I have no idea why this can't be stored on flash memory with the maps.
 Bad maps June 5, 2008

I purchased a TOM TOM One XL in November 2007. When I got it, set it up and downloaded the map update, our street was not on it. We have lived here for over 18 years and the road is one block off of an interstate in GA. While I use this unit in my Mobile Service Business, I have been sent down dead end roads as well as been told to turn right 4 times in a row and the told to turn left. This was at a major US highway intersection in Milledgeville GA. The route was taking me 1 mile to the next right turn, then 1 block / turn, then 1 block/ turn, then 1 block, then turn left, which took me right back to where I started the was told to continue straight to my destination. With the price of fuel these days, I need a more reliable unit to take me down the road.
Called Tom Tom and when I asked about the lack of current maps, I was told I could purchase a new map for each of my units (Now Two) At 79.95 each, I told the operator no thanks and I would try another GPS from another Mfg. Having recommended TOM TOM units to several customers, I now have some explaining to do. The only thing the Tom Tom Operator kept saying was "I'm sorry you feel that way" Sorry doesn't make it when now I'm out the price of two of these units.
Should have done my homework before I bought.....

Nice product. I wish there was a mechanical attachment. The vacuum or suction cup only stays attached for about 15 minutes.
