TomTomMap of the USA and Canada MapsTomTomMaps are a 2gb SD card with route maps stored on them that are made to work with the TomTom satellite navigation system. They originally come with UK/Europe maps so these are a brilliant upgrade if you are considering taking your car abroad or hiring a car and driving over there. These are a lot easier than using a standard map when you are visiting another country and make getting around easy.
We have just bought one of these as we are planning a trip to the USA and decided one of these would be useful. I have never been abroad so certainly wont know my way around.
It was very easy to install onto the TomTom. We also decided the points of interest feature would be really useful as we use the UK based one on our current maps a lot.
It has lots of features that include ...
Advantages: Simple Disadvantages: Has to be bought.
, and the colours are just right for most light conditions.
Price - The recommended retail price of this is £80, but of course we will not pay that. You will find a lot cheaper online, in discount buckets in shops, PC World, or on the likes of ebay, just remember that you will be paying postage & packaging if buying by mail order. You should be able to source these for up to 50% less.
Coverage - the following countries are covered at about 99%, but there are places like Poland where the coverage is only about 80%.
Maps Included: Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Italy, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Great Britain, Czech Republic.
limitations - As far as I know there are no limitations, apart from the usual glitches we are used to in the UK. Examples include new roads, moved junctions ...
Advantages: Stress free travelling, comprehensive, clear instructions, cheap Disadvantages: Some very minor glitches in confusing bends with turns
I recently reviewed the TomTom one, which we bought with the Western Europe maps, and I have been waiting to put Jane (our name, after the voice) through her paces in rural France.
As with all TomTommaps, easy to see, easy to use, easy to understand, and easy to update.
Absolutely fantastic, I have no idea how we ever coped without her/it. From getting off the ferry, the map/navigation was spot on, good clear instructions, in plenty of time, and the first time I have ever got through Paris without a hitch.
To give you an idea of how good, we bought a local map of where we were going on the Limousin/Perigord borders, that did not have the town we were staying in (I call it a town loosely) as it was so small, no problem for TomTom, straight there, which was welcome after 7 hours of driving.
We spent two weeks in the area ...
