was great for 2 weeks December 15, 2007 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
I recently moved to WI, way too many new roads and snow storms, so I treated myself with a GPS. The TomTom worked just great for a whole 2 weeks. Wow! Then it started acting funny: doesn't turn on when you press the power button, giving funny direction, doesn't sync with the PC, doesn't recognizes my blue-tooth cell, and worst of all: It lost its satellited connection .
After buying the premium coverage from Best Buy, they told me I can get a new one, but of course they didn't have any more of this model only cheaper things without streets names or new models, which are way more expansive.
All and all, apparently, after trying the Tom Tom and the Navigon (which didn't work to begin with) I learn that they all suck if you end up buying something cheaper than $600, best bet? Map Quest...
It works but the garmin is the better unit. December 13, 2007 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
First I bought the Garmin nuvi 200 I was very impressed except it did not have canada pre-loaded so I paid the restock fee instead of ordering the sd card and got the ONE XL I thought the bigger screen would be nice it turns out even though the nuvi has a smaller screen the information is stratigicly placed for minimal impact to the screen- the Tom Tom looks and functions like a generation behind Garmin with the huge information bar and no way to minimize it - it take up 20% of the screen. Any way that is only the tip of the iceburg although I use the tom tom and don't plan to take it back and pay another restock fee I have recomended the Garmin to everyone I have talked to.
Tom Tom One XL 4.3 inch Screen December 7, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Unit worked when opened. A few days later the program froze and could not be reset even with the reset button hidden by the SD slot. I bought it for a trip and did not have use of the unit for the trip because of the defect. I had to incur the extra expense of shipping the unit back to the factory. Tom Tom should have taken care of that. I will probably not buy from them again.

Prevents unecessary disagreements when trying to locate destination. Excellent resource for locating "points of interest". Would highly recommend it's purchase before next trip.!
Easy to use but not very good routing capability November 24, 2007 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
I liked the many easy features of the device. The Map representation is one of the best. The limitation for me however was the consistently complicated routes it produced for places I knew how to reach. I live in the North East so the use of highways is preferred and often produces simpler routes.
I read several reviews prior to my purchase about the inferior routing of the TomTom when compared with Magellan or Garmin but refused to accept it until I tried it myself. The reviews in my case were correct.
I ended up returning the TomTom and got the Magellan Maestro 4050 which produced consistently much better routing results and included many extras such as a Wall charger, AAA POI database, Bluetooth and much more for only $30 more.
