Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent GPS, and easy to use too! Comment: I bought this GPS for my wife. I had a Tomtom GP 720 which I have been very happy with, but my wife didn't want all of the extra features the 7xx line provides. We came to focus on just a few features when comparison shopping. She wanted text-to-speech so that the GPS would read out the names of Roads and Cities which would make navigation easier. She also wanted a wide-screen display so that the GPS would be easer to see. We checked out Tomtoms, Garmins, and even some Magellins and Sonys at a local big-box store. I tried to stay hand-off -- I am a tech person; my wife is a bit less-so. I wanted her to try each one out and make her decision. She found that the Tomtom was easiest for her to use and understand. She was able to quickly route to addresses and Points of interest. The screen is clear and easy to read; the voice is easy to understand. Installation was quick and easy - this has the new Tomtom mount which tightens via suction when you twist the mount - much better than trying to push a suction cup onto the windshield. Six months later and she is still happy with the purchase. Customer Rating: Summary: unable to down load updates Comment: Tried two devices. Finally after spending many hours with customer service it was determined tomtom had issues with the ability to download and install the free current map. It left the system not usable as the map that came with the system was deleted and even having backed up the unit the map could not be reinstalled. Customer Rating: Summary: Superb Purchase Comment: I purchased this item and am completely satisfied. This is my second TomTom and I completely enjoy the experience. I don't know why other reviews talk about volume. Mine is plenty load and clear. Lighting is bright and crystal clear. Day and Night time colors are vibrant. A great buy as far as I'm concerned. Extremely accurate in it's route planning. Customer Rating: Summary: It gets used everyday, Nice Product Comment: This is our second TomTom as our first refurbished model (TomTom Go 510) had died after years of everyday use. Although this model lacks some of the extra features found on a comporable Garmin, its ease of use and simplicity makes it thumbs up in my book. A lot of the extra features found on other units just aren't really all lot useful. This gets you from point A to point B without being too pricy. Lance L. Royersford, Pa Customer Rating: Summary: Not what you intend to buy, but OK once you give in to it. Comment: I bought the TT 330 XL as my second GPS. The first is a TomTom G0 910 which has been great. The plus of the 330 XL is that it has most of the features of the GO 910 - the features you really use anyway. The minuses of the 330 XL are: #0 TomTom Home application is poorly architected. TomTom Home can only talk to 1 GPS. So, because I like the GO 910 and bought my wife the 330 XL, I can't maintain my two GPSs on one computer. #1 TomTom's customer support is simple to experience and explain: BLAME THE CUSTOMER. There are no workarounds, after you've bought, they tell you that they don't support what you intended to buy. This will catch up with TomTom. By the way, I found a work around for the 2 GPS on one computer. If you PLUG BOTH GPS UNITS IN AT THE SAME TIME then the software will ask which one you want to use when it starts. #2 330 XL has no expandability. For example, I bought the $99 detailed USA map for my GO 910. Every time I start the TomTom Home application it prompts me to install this map on the 330 XL. ***News*** You can only install the map on 1 GPS, so I can't install the map on the 330 XL. AND because the 330 XL does not have an internal memory card that can be upgraded (I opened mine and looked), you don't even have room to install the map! #3 The 330 XL has not cured me of listening to my buddy who said "Buy Garmin, you'll be happier." I think he was correct. Bill Meade More Reviews
