tom tom goodOctober 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.
Wow!October 1, 2008 Haven't quite figured out all the nooks and crannies yet, but already like this a lot better than the GPS which came with my Lexus. I took a wrong turn yesterday and this little machine knew immediately and tried hard to get me on the right road, but I ignored it because I didn't know I was going in the wrong direction. So far, I love it and highly recommend it. Only one little problem; it won't stay stuck.
Great giftSeptember 30, 2008 My sister loves this TomTom, and she is technology challenged, so I have to rate it great for an inexpensive model.
tom tom 3rd editionSeptember 30, 2008 Works every time easy to set up and use. well worth the money spent. Could use another glue on disc to hold the suction cup for the mount. I went to a craft store and bought a round plastic disc, put double sided tape on one side. Now I can use the tom tom in both cars
