dont go for a tomtom
Any particular reason why? Ive had tomtom's for a good few years now and never had a problem, and i know loads that say the same. obviously some will have had bad experiences no doubt, like the problems with the new style mounts and the switching itself off issue.
Id go for tomtom over any other device as its just so much easier to use in my opinon and has better features and a better layout than the rest.
I can do about 300-600 miles a day and have never had an issue apart form once, where a brand new road was being built, but it soon calculated me an alternative route instantly.
ive had the tomtom classic since it come out too.
i did make a full lenght post about why they in my eyes are crap it was a big list.
their support is crap and they sell "the latest maps" without giving release notes/dates which are very out of date and fail to include some major roads in several places around britain.
ill give it to them when they work theyre great but mine is taking ages to get a signal these days, and the battery life has gone downhill.
but i guess thats par for the course given its age.
the main thing that angered me with tomtom was when i wanted a new map they charged me £41 quid and it was no more modern!!
hope that helps a bit
