TomTom GO 700 – Buyers Opinion
- It seems that Tomtom Go 700 needs to work on updating the N American maps quicker or have an update option on its website.
- They cater mostly to the European customer. They also need to have an update available for POIs, update the mobile phone brands as well as cell-phone carriers (Altell is not listed).
- Pleasant interface. Very well polished product.
- Only touchscreen, no buttons (except power and eject)
- Catches satellites pretty quickly. It was catching satellites from within my bedroom which was particularly impressive .
- You can set route a certain way: ie avoid toll charges, use highways, etc.
TomTom GO 700 – Buyers Experience
By : Timothy Perrin
My wife and I were in the first week of what turned out to be an eight-month trip to Europe. We had gotten lost so many times already it was painful. Medieval European towns wouldn’t know the meaning of “grid” if you hit them with it. They streets go every which way. In fact, in just trying to get from where we picked up our car to the freeway, we took a wrong turn and ended up 20 miles down the wrong highway. So, by the end of the week, I was online researching GPS systems.
I’ve never regretted our purchase of the TomTom GO 700, at the time the top of the TomTom line. I guided us virtually flawlessly throughout the trip. On only two occasions did it give us bad directions, and then only because the map database was inaccurate. The maps are supplied by a third party and pretty much the same for all GPS systems. In other words, a Garmin would have done it too. Other than those two instances, it guided us flawlessly for close to 250 days.
Since we’ve returned to North America, I’ve added all of Canada and all of the US west of the Mississippi to the hard drive and still have room left over.
The unit cost me about $900. (Remember, it was new on the market and top of the line at the time.) Was it worth it ? Absolutely. It works out to less than $4 a day to not have to hassle with maps, my wife’s sorry sense of direction, inability to read maps and car sickness if she tries to do so in a moving car (sorry, honey). I could just concentrate on driving safely and enjoy the drive. The fact that we downloaded John Cleese’s voice to give us directions and never got tired of his jokes was just a bonus.
I love my TomTom GO 700. My friends who’ve bought one on our recommendation love theirs too. I can’t comment on their service or support because in a year and a half, I haven’t needed either! It just works every time I start up the car (or carry it in my pocket for walking instructions–or on the bike for bike routing). It just works.
