You'll have no trouble seeing this one!
 
Review Date: December 3, 2009
Reviewer: C. D. Hess, Rochester, NY
I have owned several GPS units, including models from Garmin and Navman. I upgraded to this model from the TomTom 140S. This model has twice the screen size. The screen is brighter, and the sound is louder and fuller. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Routing is excellent. The Points of Interest database is huge. Advanced lane guidance is very helpful. The large screen makes data input easier. Like all TomToms, you can configure it to your liking.

The only negative is that battery life is reduced because of the larger, brighter screen.
Great gps

I picked this up for a great price and it works great. Acquires signal fast from within my home with 9 satellites. 5 inch screen is great, though it still has the resolution of a 4.3 inch screen. I dont use hands free calling or voice input (not hard to plug in data). Has alot of POI which is a big plus. Storage is 2gb internal memory. It routes very fast, in a manner of seconds.

The retail price is $299. I would not pay that much for this. If you can get this gps for $200 or less then pick it up.
Satisified Again

Reviewer: Wonderboy, Missouri
I had owned a Tom Tom before and was satisified but wanted an updated version and also one that spoke the street names. It is everything I had hoped for. I also wanted a larger screen and purchased the 5" screen and it really makes the difference. I also liked the Lane Change feature. I will be honest that the instructions that comes with the unit are not very good but I went on line and got the information I needed. It is an awesome unit and I would recommend it to everyone. I purchased this through Amazon and it was really quick service. I paid the extra $10 bucks to get it quicker and had it in exactly 2 days. My first shopping through Amazon but was extremely satisfied with the service.
Great GPS

I purchased many GPS from Garmin,Navigator,etc,,,,,I never had a GPS that the company let customers help update any map changes. I also like the other feathers including making a new file that I put my Geocaches. I haven"t had any problem with my unit.
Happy

I love the GPS. It works everytime, finding the shortest route. They shipped it out fast. Only thing is I should have checked other web sites because I found it on 2 other sites for $60 Less.
