Default More TomTom Go Questions - Anyone Used One Abroad?

Ok chaps, whats the score with them?

If i buy a 300 can i put the bits onto it like the 500 and 700 have? i.e. the euro maps etc....?

I'm a bit clueless with this stuff, i know their really good at what they do but curious as to the specs'n'stuff.

I've been offered a good deal on a 700 and wanna suss out the others before i shake on it.

And how accurate are the european maps? Spot on or naff?

Cheers

300 can use euro maps but youd have to swop the memory card over or swop maps once you get to france.. 700 has them all on the hard drive so you can go from say central london to the ring in one seamless route.. no map swopping at all..

but you can never make the 300 have the bluetooth that the 500/700 have
