Advantages: Excellent route planning, directions, Disadvantages: Old maps needs updating, Slow GPS signal at start
I purchased this TomTomNavigator 5 for approx 200 GBP two months back. I am an IT Consultant and am required to go to different client's sites at different locations. At first I used to print out the directions from mapquest or theaa.com and then try to follow these, but always I used to lose or miss out in between and land up searching again. This procedure was difficult if I was traveling alone as its difficult to hold that piece of paper and look out for directions etc.,
So I finally decided to go in for the Navigation software and I had heard that TOMTOM is the best in the market. Now I had to decide in TOMTOM which one I have to choose. I finally decided on this model since I already had a Zire 72 Palmtop (Bluetooth enabled) which I could use for this purpose.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of TomTom Navigator
Advantages: Easy to setup and use, Clear maps, Works great! Disadvantages: Some minor bugs, Costly to keep maps up to date
TomTomNavigator brings the market leading SatNav software and functionality to a PDA. Plan your routes with your preferences (avoid toll roads, fastest, etc).
The software is very easy to install - just run the CD on your computer and it copies the files to your PDA - easy! This does take a long time however so dont think you can just install and use in 5 mins... set it going whilst you are doing something else and leave it to it.
Once the software has been installed and the maps copied across to your PDA, you go through a setup program on the initial load. You configure your GPS receiver (bluetooth or wired) and set up your preferences - voice, metric/imperial etc. This is easy to complete and a nice welcome to the software.
The menus are clear and bright, with big icons that you can finger press, or use your PDA's stylus ...
Advantages: Small neat device that works well and excellent navigation software Disadvantages: Non-replaceable battery, maps getting out of date
and stopping to sight-see along the way. The Bluetooth receiver also is aware of the phone and if you end the software, the receiver will time-out after about 5 minutes and switch off.
MAPS
I bought the whole European database as you get quite a discount compared to individual maps and bought the download version rather than the retail CD pack. Again it's cheaper to download but very big (over 2Gb).
Installing maps to the SD memory card is easy and you can fit most of Europe on a 2Gb card with some room to spare for mp3s, videos, photos and so on. It's best to use a card reader attached to the PC than the Palm file link. The map install program knows this and can install to a memory card directly.
The TeleAtlas maps are very good but not error-free. They are very detailed and you can navigate to pretty much anywhere at street level ...
