Digital camera reviews of TomTom ONE Portable GPS Vehicle Navigator
Digital camera Review: Buy a Garmin!
Summary: 1 Stars
I can not begin to describe how bad the TomTom GPS system is. When my father ran the demo to get from the Eastern Shore of Maryland to Charleston, SC (basically get on 95 and stay there until you hit southern South Carolina) the demo took 45 minutes, had him going hundreds of miles out of the way, off I-95.
The TomTom compared to the Garmin is night and day. You literally turn on the Garmin out of the box and the map shows you where you are. My husband, the ultimate electronic junky, was amazed. I only have good things to say about Garmin. Hope this helps!
Digital camera Review: Buy this GPS and have fun
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the TomTom a while back and have used it for assistance across the US and in my town. What did I do without one before? No more printouts and hard to read notes. No more getting stuck without alternatives. The TomTom gets a satellite connection and up to 6 within a couple of minutes. I practically did not even know where I used to live :-) Only one thing to do and that is to buy this. The portability means that I can take this on trips with me and use this in rental cars on in other people's cars that do not have a GPS.Digital camera Review: Can give bad directions
Summary: 2 Stars
After reading many reviews I purchased a Tom Tom One with the expectation that it would be an inexpensive base line portable GPS. I tried it out around town so that I could get familiar with it. Its logic will route you to numbered highways over surface streets and this may not only be confusing and perhaps dangerous, but it can increase the distance to be driven.
While driving on names highways, it would direct me to dirt roads and even a farmer's road between grape vines and tree fruit. In addition, the time on the unit would be off by the wierdest amount, ie not just even hours. In fact, the time was never correct, or even close.
I am afraid that if I was on roads that I was not familliar with, I might have been placed in harms way it I had followed its directions.
I returned the unit for a credit.
Digital camera Review: Can't live without it
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been really impressed with how this product performs. This is my first purchase of a GPS product and I wanted an inexpensive entry level unit. After several weeks of usage I cannot imagine what the high dollar units can offer that this one doesn't. My fiance uses it every day traveling to various locations and it has saved me from trying to route her home on several occasions. The points of interest came in handy this weekend since I forgot to get gas. We didn't panic when the low fuel light came on we just hit the POI button and we were there in a jiffy.Digital camera Review: Christmas Present

This is a gift for my college-age son, who travels quite a bit between home & school. It's still in the package - and won't be opened until 12/25/07. It looks pretty cool, tho!
