Advantages: Good Maps. Highly configurable Disadvantages: Slow inital signal pick up
We have had our TomTom 510 for several months, it was a treat to ourselves as we were constantly getting lost or turning up one way streets when finding hotels or going to for days out. We paid about £280 punds for it then (as we had some discount codes for PC World), you can now get them for about £260 before any discount.
The device which is quite small (but quite chunky compared to the new slimline models that TomTom are starting to introduce) ... ...dock or charger.

You can select which way you want to go (shortest, quickest, etc) ... ...go a different way mid-journey TomTom can do that for you too. If you need to go to several places in one journey you can use the itinary planner to do that.
