So, you're looking at picking up one of those newfangled TomTom GPS what's-its, but the XL 340S' 4.3-inch color wide screen is just too small for you to read. Well, you're in luck because TomTom has just announced an even larger line of portable nav devices, the XXL series.

The new TomTom XXL 530S and 540S both feature a larger 5-inch touch screen, IQ Routes and TomTom MapShare technologies, US and Canadian maps, and TomTom's EasyPort integrated suction cup mount.

Why not call it the TomTom RBD (really big display)?

Drop an extra 30 bones on the 540S to add advanced lane guidance, as well as a gloss-black finish to the chassis, maps of Mexico, and more preloaded points of interest.

The new TomTom XXL 530S and 540S will be in retailers across the United States and Canada in October 2009 for $279.95 and $299.95, respectively.
