"garmin and magellan are better than tom tom"
Pros: it sort of works
Cons: terrible maps
Summary: As an electrical contractor I own 7 gps units for all my service vehicles so I have a lot of experience with all the different types of gps's Magellan, Garmin and now tom tom, I'm sorry but the tom tom is the worst as far as maps and usability, we have adresses that are nearly 8 years old that do NOT appear on the maps where they did appear with the Magellan and the garmin units, the search features on the tom tom are also the worst, and its layout is not that user friendly as compared to the garmin and Magellan units, we like the garmin units the best, I cannot afford to purchase a gps unit for 700 dollars that does not have 8 year old addresses in it. I checked that we do have the latest version of the maps and we do. Sorry but the unit goes back to the source store that it was purchased from today and my next stop is at Costco to purchase the Magellan 800 as I have experience with this unit and find to have all the addresses and more concise map data base, I was hoping that the tom tom plus services would make up for the poor maps but the unit had no success in connecting with my cell phone via blue tooth so much for that. The plus features absolutely do not work with me as the process of connecting the cell phone to the unit was just way to cumbersome and required a lot of research??..Sorry, you need more work on this product,,,,,,,,product number???nj5aj eggpf 9zte2

The TomTom one is hardly $700, more like $200-$250.
I certainly have never had the map issue you have and use it extensively. Frankly I don't care about the maps. I care about it directing me to my destination by voice.
The TomTom has never failed me, neither by the way has my Garman. -
