Tom-Tom 700,
This review is from: TomTom GO 700 In Car GPS Satellite Navigation With European Mapping & Bluetooth (Electronics)
A FANTASTIC bit of kit! Works straight from the box without any need for the detailed instruction booklet. We first used it from the box on a job in Germany and it gave accurate journey information throughout Germany and also back across into Holland. The maps of Spain and Gibraltar are also spot-on, as are Northern France. The problem... after one month the unit simply refused to switch on! Amazon sorted instantly but it looks like a software type of fault... Let's hope this fixes things because otherwise it is 10/10.

TomTom Go 700,

This review is from: TomTom GO 700 In Car GPS Satellite Navigation With European Mapping & Bluetooth (Electronics)
My Tom Tom Go 700 worked straight from the box and has successfully naviagetd me around most of the UK and even Northern Italy. I have found my Parrot in car bluetooth telephone kit much better that the TomTom built in system but I have appreciated the full European mapping. TomTom Go 700 is probably only worth the extra money over the 300/500 if you regularly go abroad. That said, the full postcode facility is excellent and I have found the remote very useful for changing preferences etc. when on the move. You can buy TomTom dash mounts from Brodit that make for a very neat in car fit and eliminate any vibration through the unit which is a characteristic of the rather clumsy windscreen mount. Unfortunately, after 3 months, my TomTom Go died on me and refused to reset. Reading the other reviews reliability does seem to be a problem which is not satisfactory for a piece of equipment costing £500.00. I will give TomTom another chance as it has been genuinely invaluable and I have accepted a replacement. If it were not for the reliability issue I would have awarded TomTom Go 700 four or even five stars.

This review is from: TomTom GO 700 In Car GPS Satellite Navigation With European Mapping & Bluetooth (Electronics)
I've had this a couple of weeks now and i think its brilliant, no problems whatsoever (yet!).It's surprised me with one or two routings especially ones in and out of Portsmouth, routes that i didn't even think about. There are one or two mapping errors in and around Guildford & on the A3, but when you consider that this gadget has the whole of western europe in it, that can't be bad and they're constantly being updated so they should be sorted out relatively quickly. Also i have noticed one or two POIs (Points Of Interest) a Petrol Station & Shop are curiously according to it are 1/ In the middle of a local duck pond & 2/ In the middle of a Cricket/Football pitch! Oh Well, I guess nothings 100% perfect! You can change it from day to night colours, the vocal instructions are clear and precise, warnings sounds can also be made when approaching a POI such as speed camera or Petrol Stn. You can choose from numerous display options 2D/3D/Text or Blank Screen voice only. Also you have a postcode option for UK & NL. Some important points! If you know your car has heat reflective/athermic or "comfort glass" then you really do need to buy the external antenna that goes with these TomTom Go systems otherwise you'll find that it will more than likely NOT work as the glass's properties will block the GPS signal. You can test this theory by turning it on outside the car, getting a GPS signal, then go inside the car, close all doors & windows and see what happens. No signal or very little signal? You need the antenna & £50 is the cheapest you'll find it! Its powerfully magnetic so will stick to the roof of the car or do as i have done and that's attach it to the inside of rear windscreen with Outdoor Sticky Fixers, it stops it going missing and is less of a give away to thieves! If you want the Speed Camera locations you don't need a subscription you can get it from http://www.pocketgps.co.uk/uksafetycameras.php which is currently free! Don't use a pen to tap details in on the screen it leaves tiny dots or very fine scratches on the surface, use a PDA stylus if you can or the rubber end of a pencil. Do take it with you and don't leave it in the car (including glove box) when you park up otherwise you'll soon find yourself buying new glass & another TomTom Go as they're a prime target for the thieves & vandals
