...a very satisfied user of TomTom One and would definitely recommend it to any potential buyer. We bought the TomTom One about 4 months ago and to date, it hasn't given us a chance to regret our decision. The TomTom One is one of the numerous entry-level satnavs in the market, but does not disappoint with its loads of features and reasonable price (We bought ours in Aug 2006 for £199). It has become very popular in the market. There are, of course, ...
...and my friends' limited experience, TomTom devices are way ahead in terms of the user friendliness, the mapping, the feature set and the sheer performance. The experience ***************** Earlier, driving to some place meant that we had to do some prior research about the route to take. Then during the journey, with my husband driving, I had to play the role of the navigator, keeping the map book open, keeping a track of where we are and which ... Read review

Advantages: No setting up, plug & play.
Disadvantages: None.

...this is free. The TomTom is an absolute doddle to set up and operate, and much has been written on the subject. My view is that the simple instructions and pictograms are enough for anyone to get it to work. It will work without any hassle lying on the passenger seat, although after a couple of hours the battery will let you down, so a charging lead (included in the box) will have to be plugged into the cigarette lighter socket. The mounting kit, ...
...slips into even smaller pockets. TomTom recommend that you do not leave the mounting kit stuck to the windscreen overnight, as it may lose suction, I agree with them but more for a theft prevention reasons. I also use my TomTom in trucks, and find the battery life is ample, considering you can leave it on charge all the time, except perhaps when you need to use the cigarette lighter socket fto charge a mobile phone. I have made a home charger, by ... Read review

Advantages: Compact, Clear and concise instructions, accurate, fast
Disadvantages: Poor battery Life, No mains charger supplied

I've been using the TomTom one for a couple of months now, so thought I'd write a review on how I've found it. If you're after a review with lots of info about the spec of this thing, then don't read on, there are loads of websites out there with that info, I'm just going to give you an overview of how I find it in use, and pick out a couple of features that I find very useful. The TomTom One has just been revised and this is version 2. It's not ...
...if you go to the TomTom website, the maps are around £35 for each country, and the map for the whole of Europe (as supplied with the European version) is £119. Having never used Sat Nav before I decided to try it out on local roads first of all, and routes that I already know. I have to say generally I was very impressed. It does generally try to take you on all the main roads (so if you know lots of little shortcuts through residential areas it ... Read review

Advantages: Small, bright and light
Disadvantages: battery life is rubbish

The new TomTom One is a huge improvement on the design of the out side casing. The old look was large and bulky and to tell you the truth I thought that it was ugly, but this new design is brilliant. It's smaller, nice flat screen, light weight and fits snugly into your hand. I find this comfortable and very user friendly. I bought my TomTom because I was sick and tired of having maps all over my car as I enjoy going out a lot. I can have my TomTom ...
...I found with the new TomTom one is that it is so easy to input the destination that you want to go to. There are various way you can do this either by City Centre's, Street name and number or can just enter the postcode if you know it. Another function is that you can add your favourite places like friends, relatives and other places you like going. Not only does the TomTom tell you where to go but it also tells you were other things are as well. ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, Lots of options
Disadvantages: None as yet

I got the TOMTOM One from halfords for £179.99, although I am sure there would be a better deal on the net, I haven't been driving for long and hate not knowing how to get where I need to be. I picked a TOMTOM navigator because I had more about them and they were said to be one of the best and very reliable. I have only had it for a couple of weeks and it didn't take long to figure out how to use, its an absolute lifesaver for someone who has no ...
