Digital camera Review: Tom Tom GO 930
Summary: 5 Stars
Am enjoying using this product and it continues to amaze me with what it can doDigital camera Review: Tom Tom GO 930 T
Summary: 4 Stars
We are pleased with our new TomTom system. Getting used to it, as this is our first time using it. In time it will be beneficial. I do lots of traveling locally in new areas with my job and I often get lost. TomTom has helped me navigate around. I need to find shorter routes,as TomTom seems to take me around and a little bit longer than I need to take. Time will tell and I am sure it will get easier.Digital camera Review: Tom Tom verse Magellan
Summary: 4 Stars
My last GPS was a Magellan 800. It worked very well was much larger, and in the Xterra, bounced a lot if you did not pin the GPS to the dash rather than have it hanging on the mount, not a big problem. It did not talk as much, but it's use of English was much clearer. I live in Omaha Nebraska and often go to Lincoln, The 930 says "Lin Clone" a minor problem since the Magellan just gave simple no name directions.I find, in a rougher ridding car, the buttons work. better than a touch screen, with a touch screen, you tend to hit the screen multiple times. There seems to be no true shut off for the GPS, if you leave it off for a few weeks, the batteries are dead. It also seems to not work well when you have low batteries and a hot car, something that happens when stooped and the GPS is still in the window. None of these things are deal breakers, The main reason I purchased the 930 was because of the on line map updates ( My Magellan stooped giving map updates in its 3 year) and the interstate lane display designators ( have not seen them yet, but it may be new yet to Omaha and Arizona. I have found that the TomTom works just fine, and as updates to the maps continue, it will get to the point of the Magellan 800 maps, not for roads but for store locations. The cell phone bluetooth connection works great found hotels and called and made reservations routing is easy, all I would really want was more accurate business locations on the map, and easier to understand voices to make it a 5 star unit. With the on line conncection and continus updates, this will happen. for now, it is a 4 star unit.Digital camera Review: Tom tom in Brasil

Very good ! Just a little disapointed as the radar detector does not work... It could at least work for the ones you marked while driving...Digital camera Review: TomTom 930T Review
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this unit to aid in navigation during automobile trips. The unit works suberbly in this manner. We were able to use it to find restaurants that we wanted to eat at in strange towns. It's ability to recompute a new route based on your missing a turn is fast and efficient.
The reason that it did not get more than 3 stars is after the trip I went about updating the maps via TomTom's software and website. During the update all the current maps were removed (this was expected). However, the unit absolutely refused to complete the load of the North American maps (Europe loaded OK). After 4 different customer service reps and many different attempts to get the maps to load. I was finally forced to send the unit in for service. I don't know if the problems with loading the maps was hardware in the unit, my computer, or TomTom software but I was not pleased having spent more than 8 hours working with customer service reps without success. I must admit the customer service reps were very pleasent and friendly and reasonably knowledgeable but it still required that I return the unit for service. I expect to get it back today about 10 days after sending it to them and I will be curious as to whether I get a new unit or if they serviced this one and how they got it to work.
