Advantages: Greatly improved reception in built up areas Disadvantages: If externally mounted. It shows theives there is a Sat-Nav on board.
A very well designed product primarily designed to overcome reception problems in cars with heated windscreens that can adversely affect reception. Easy to install (good magnet allows you to site the antenna vitually anywhere on the exterior of the car).
I have found that it also helps in towns and built up areas where you can lose reception for a minute or two. It is supplied with more than enough cable to fit it virtually anywhere on the vehicle, however this does cause the problem of what you do with the excess cable (along with the cables already going to the power source). This can lead to a mess of cables trailing the dashboard. A permanent solution to this is difficult given the fact that it is not advisable to permanantly position a TomTom because of the rise in car crime.
These minor problems aside I would highly recommend ...
Advantages: Easy to Use, Cheap with All the Functions you really Need Disadvantages: Being Told to Keep Right on Motorways. Can be Distracting.
Great little unit.
This piece of kit is a lifesaver. Not only can it help you with directions but I'm sure it will save more marriages than coucilling. No more arguing over poor directions or where to go.
The system has many useful functions.
1. Basic GPS - To get from A to B. This can be via postcode, location name etc. Generally very good just get to the area you know and let the TomTom take you from their. See downside point 2.
2. Points of interest - Can include anything from restuarants & cinenas to your local funeral dirctor - Many free sites to download from.
3. Speed camera details.
4. Speedo - My 2002 Mondeo underclocks by about 10% and I've only just noticed so I can now get everywhere 10% quicker without worrying about speeding - This is Great news.
5. Updates from TomTom webside including map corections ...
I have been using the TomTomOne for over 16months now, so do consider myself an expert on this particular piece of kit!
Why did I buy it in the first place - that bit is easy, I travel a lot in a new job and to towns I would have never heard of before - on top of that I had some fantastic inside information that I will share with you.
A friend of mine is in the car lease business - everything from Ford to Ferrari! Obviously most of the high end vehicles have built in sat nav. As he delivers cars to their owners all over the country he has used them all, so he is the real expert. Guess what - he always carries his TomTomOne with him He has become so frustrated with other systems unuserfriendliness (if that is a word) that he sticks with what he considers to be the best - the TomTomOne.
His advice - unless you need ...
