TomTom is Great BUT...........
82 von 82 finden das hilfreich The TomTom XL 340S is a Great GPS unit that works extremely well, is easy to use, and has a load of high end features. HOWEVER,through other users, I have learned that there is one glaring defect in design that the manufacturer does not acknowledge, yet knows about. When you get the new unit, you can and should hook it up to your PC to upgrade to the latest maps, free of charge the first time (TomTom charges for later map upgrades, about $12.00 every 3 months, if you choose to do it) BUT, the new map is larger then the one in the unit, too large for the flash memory available, and CRASHES THE UNIT, making it useless unless you send it back to TomTom for reprogramming!
There is an easy and quick solution to this major defect though and here's what it is: When you hook the Tom Tom to your PC, DO NOT upgrade the map yet. Instead, go through the options and erase all but two of the voices that come installed on the unit. There are 9 or 10, you only need 1 or 2, I kept the two English computer voices so the street names can be verbalized. If you choose non computer voices, they are a bit more realistic but can not say the street names.
With these voices erased, there is more then enough memory to hold the new map and there will be no fatal crash when upgraded! Simple and easy! I called Tom Tom and told them about this and they admitted the problem, yet they do not advise you about it on the website before you upgrade the map. Why?, I do not know.
After removing the voices and upgrading the maps, the unit works like a charm. The color touch screen is large and pleasant to look at and the integral windshield mount is very cool but I had to figure out how to use it through trial and error since the instructions give no written directions on using the mount at all. Overall, I am very happy with the TomTom and would have given it a 5 star rating, instead of 4, if they had advised about the memory problems on the map upgrade website in advance.
