This database is fully integrated in your ONE XL navigation software and alerts to warn you when there is a fixed safety camera on your route. Theres a large choice of route option...

5 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good!   June 10, 2008

Well I umm-ed and ahh-ed about which satnav to buy for ages. If you believe all the reviews you read then they're all as bad as each other so in the end, as my mother had this one and it seemed very efficient, I opted for the XL (I only got Europe as it was a free upgrade at the time). I have to say, I'm really very pleased. I have had no issues (so far) with updates, finding my location, or anything. Ok, so the battery time is a bit rubbish, but it does come with an in-car charger so no real problems there. The window attachment has been no problem for me; it fell off once but that was my own fault for not wetting it enough. There are a few map faults, but nothing major and certainly nothing that wasn't pretty obvious and easy to correct. Now I'm not a really frequent driver and I don't use it all the time, but you know what? it makes driving a more enjoyable affair for me. I feel less stressed, safer and I can see where I'm going. It might not be perfect, but I love it.


4 out of 5 stars Great product, let down by peripherals   June 3, 2008
Ancient&Loyal
Had this for a week now, and so far works fine - as other reviewers have said, easy to use, re-calculates routes quickly & provides all the on-screen info you need. Unlike some other reviewers I haven't had any problems with the screen mount falling off, however the overall product is let down by other shortcomings:
- No carry case, which TomTom would like you to pay the better part of 20 for. Better off with the leather case from Discount Satellite Navigation (on Amazon) which is 5.99 and does the job well.
- The in-car charger is woefully short. My car has a cigarette lighter in the centre console & one at the bottom of the dashboard, but neither option allows me to put the unit on the bottom-right hand corner of the windscreen (ie not blocking the bottom centre of the windscreen) without trailing the cable over the steering wheel. An extra couple of foot would allow the cable to be routed out of the way under the footmat.
- Could just be me, but the TomTom Home software & manuals aren't great. Keeps saying it can't recognise the device & has locked up the unit, necessitating a full re-set.

All-in-all, does it's main job well, but let down by skimping on the small things



2 out of 5 stars Gets you there, when its working.   May 31, 2008

Its accurate and fast to re-route, so it won't leave you in a lather calling out directions too late.

This is a "cheap" all europe nav, so this may be unreasonable to expect, but what I find dissappointing is the TOM TOM Home software. This lets you link to a PC to preset routes etc. But it is no more flexible than programming direct - Its not easy to force a specific route you want it to take you - it insists it knows best. That is a missed opportunity.

But after 6 weeks its broken - won't turn on. Now I have just read about the reset problem which looks like it might have fixed it - that's just not good enough I am afraid, hence 2 stars. Flaky firmware is not acceptable.



1 out of 5 stars poor product and service   May 28, 2008

Tom Tom One XL Europe I cannot recommend. The device is giving a lot of problems and service support is poor. Avoid.


5 out of 5 stars Dynamite   May 24, 2008

Dynamite comes in a very small pack, and so does this product. I chose this particular brand / product purely on review's alone, fully knowing that the holding sucker mechanism to the windscreen is indeed poor and there is no protective carrying case. I have spent an extra $40.00 on rectifying these issues - as sugguested - and it has been money well spent. This TomTom deserves a 5 star rating, it is a fantastic device.
