Summary: A WAIST OF TIME AND MONNEY
Comment: It barely worked for 1 month, and then turned to a nightmare. The whole unit ended on the side of the Florida turnpike.
Stay away from it!!!

Summary: Stop Me Before I Throw It Through The Window
Comment: Very frustrating to use. Doesn't like to connect to the computer on the first try. The software that allows you to operate it via the computer won't always launch. The unit sometimes has a hiccup and won't respond to a touch command, so when it wakes up after the second or third try, it does the command...you got it, three times. I bought it for the larger screen. But overall, it has not been an enjoyable thing to use. UPDATE: I gave up and threw it out. By this time, I didn't want to exchange it for the second time. I'm washing my hands of TomTom.

Summary: Unit did not work
Comment: I purchased this unit to use on the road. I have been using a GPS system for about 4 years. I have one built in to my Jeep, have been renting from Hertz when traveling. While I do not consider myself a GPS expert, I have enough experience in using one to understand the operation. Due to the expense of renting when traveling, I decided I would purchase a unit to save the rental fee everytime.
I hope that the unit I purchased, new in the box, was defective and not the norm for TomTom. I took it on the road. I tried to route 7 different locations over a period of several days. It failed miserably.
- I got off the plane and turned it on. It never found my location, despite laying on the dashboard for over an hour.
- I went online for tech support, found suggestion to reset.
- I reset it, did not make a difference, still took a long time to find location (20 - 30 mins) if it did find it. I was with someone walking around down who had a Garmin Nuvi, it always knew were we located, the TomTom never found the location, even when searching for over 2 hours.
- Over the 7 attempts I tried, it worked one time.
When working, it does a good job of recalulating route, announcing turns. When I returned it, the sales person asked me if I want to exchange it, I chose not to. Did not want that frustration again. So as I said, I hope it was only defective, because if it is normal, it is terrible.
Last but not least, their website is less then user friendly. I was told by tech support to just look on the web. Links given were non-working.
I returned the unit after and purchased a Garmin Nuvi 360.
Hope this helps.
