I bought this product from the tax free area in Stansted on our way out to Girona. The product is well packaged and it comes with everything you need. The Tom Tom was really easy to use and I got it up and running in a matter of minutes. It does take a few minutes to find the satellite the first time you switch it on. It had excellent mapping in Spain and I was able to use both in the car and on foot to navigate to destinations easily and without any hitches. The screen is easy to read on foot but in the car you can get some screen glare from the sun but this can be resolved by getting an anti-glare protector. The windscreen mount is easy to place and it has never fallen off. Navigating in the UK has not been as good as in Europe. My street shows only 29 houses and there is about 90 houses and has been for year. It also has tried to take me down a few one way streets at times that have been that way for a few years. The USB cable wouldn't plug into the Tom Tom and was loose but I was able to use a spare one I had, if this was the only cable I would have had to take it back. All in all it's a good product but like all Sat Nav its not prefect.

Hi, have you toticed the map feedback section on the tomtom website. That helps them correct the maps and is very simple to use, as sat nav is a very new concept it will take time for them to make it perfect however there are free updates on the website every few months :-)
