    "All inclusive and a great upgrade from my GO 910."

    by FiveIV on September 28, 2008

    Pros: Hands free calling worked better than most bluetooth headsets. Screen is easy to view on full brightness EVEN with sun glare. Voice instructions can be heard CLEARLY at full volume with all 4 windows down at 65+ mph. Lane guidance great feature.

    Cons: Should have included a protective case in the box for the actual GPS unit instead of having to buy it seperate as an accessory.

    Summary: The unit I have is the GO 930 T (same unit but the T comes with the traffic receiver) so these comments are relevant to both models. This is TomTom's high end unit, so with anything high end, expect to find more features and options on the device which may take away the "simplicity" that less technical people look for. Don't be fooled by that at all... this unit IS simple to use. I live in Atlanta and the advanced lane guidance feature has worked flawlessly for me. It even gave me the static lane exit map in areas I didn't even think it would have a static image for. The ability to use customizable car symbols to represent your actual vehicle is a graphical plus. The hands free calling worked so well, that people I called didn't even know I was on a hands free device. The sleek black finish and widescreen design makes it look like it belongs in the vehicle and not some ugly device that detracts from your car's interior. I bought this unit as a replacement for my TomTom Go 910 and I am glad I did. If you notice, I haven't commented at all on the actual navigation part of the unit... no need to.. works exactly as it should and like most other GPS units out there it does that part exceptionally well. I bought this unit for the traffic and for the lane guidance as THAT is a huge plus to GPS navigation. For those of you who have the 930T or are interested in it... the traffic info updates roughly every 15 mins with the included traffic receiver and it routed me around the traffic with no problems. If you have a compatible Bluetooth phone and data plan from your service provider, then you won't need the 930T, simply pair the 930 with your phone and get your traffic through the TomTom plus services every 3 mins. Great unit... get it!!!
