Top-notch User Interface and Software
The GO 720 is operated via an award-winning, intuitive user interface, and is ready to go right out of the box so as soon as you switch it on you can start using it. This navigator comes with the latest and most complete maps of the USA and Canada pre-installed for door-to-door navigation anywhere across the North American continent. Providing easy and quick access to extensive information such as building footprints and live traffic information, the unit includes multiple information options for personalization to your needs. What's more, the 720 is fully future proof, with new maps and free software upgrades available through TomTom's "Home" service so you'll never be out of date.

Simple, Easy Navigation
TomTom's GO 720 uses a 4.3-inch, extra-wide, touch-screen LCD display that features anti-glare technology for easy viewing even in direct sunlight. Realistic and clear visual instructions are provided with high-quality 3D graphics, while spoken instructions tell you where you need to go in your own language. As an added convenience, text-to-speech functionality provides you with actual street names, while the easy-to-operate, voice-prompted address input is not only faster and simpler, but allows for easy location search and selection and plug and GO capability. Using the latest technology, the 720 provides you with fast and accurate positioning, with fast route calculation and automatic re-calculation so it's virtually impossible to get turned around. You can even record your own navigation instructions, for either places you know best, or for planning out trips in advance based on the recommendations of others.

The GO 720 is as safe as it is convenient, and comes with a host of safety preferences. This unit helps ensure safe and efficient driving by doubling as a hands-free kit via Bluetooth technology, which is becoming essential as more states pass laws against driving while talking into a handset. With dual microphone support and a built-in high-quality speaker your phone calls are as clear as a bell, and with convenience features such as automatic call pick-up you can truly concentrate on your driving. However, if for some reason your concentration does lapse, this device includes a selectable speeding alert to keep you from accruing expensive tickets.

Extra Features
The GO 720 is full of functionality, such as a tip feature, a customizable status bar, an extensive guided tour, and even a 'Help me!' menu, so it guides you through its usage as much as to your destination. It also features a personalized shortcut menu, 'current location icon' options, and millions of POIs (points of interest) so you can find what you need wherever you are like a lifetime local was riding shotgun. Taking navigation beyond just convenience, the 720 lets you play your music wirelessly over your vehicle's stereo system via its built-in MP3 player and FM transmitter. Now you can enjoy your music on the 720, all while seamlessly providing navigation instructions and still handling your hands-free phone calls. This amazing navigation device even provides you with a document viewer and photo viewer, so you can take your work with you or instantly download and enjoy your holiday photos wherever you go.

TomTom Plus Services
The TomTom GO 720 is compatible with TomTom Plus services that allow you to check the current weather and road conditions on your route, and get up to five-day forecasts for places your visiting. This feature also allows you to take advantage of buddies functionality, TomTom Plus traffic, and the easy download of additional voices. What's more, as a new addition to the TomTom line-up, the 720 comes with TomTom MapShare technology. TomTom Map Share technology not only lets you add to, update, and personalize your maps instantly, but also share them with others so all your family and friends know the latest changes in your area. You can also download others' changes daily as one of many online services.

TomTom's GO 720 comes complete with TomTom Home software, an internal high-quality rechargeable lithium ion battery, and the capability to share content directly between other compatible TomTom GO devices. A Bluetooth remote control is available as a separate accessory. The 720 is also backed by a manufacturer's limited warranty.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - TomTom better than nuvi
I tried out the Garmin nuvi 760 since I read that it's maps were better but have since sent it back. It did not have as many customization options (no John Cleese voice). And it's display does not show the small roads that you are passing as well as the TomTom 920. Of course I have previous experience with the TomTom software interface since I have used it with my Treo PDA for years. I was surprised that the TomTom was getting satellites indoors! The form factor is better with the TomTom as ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Lots of features but software very immature
Pros:
- love the Bluetooth phone integration. Makes commuting back and forth a lot safer.
- Price was great. I got it on sale for about $300 - great price for the features
- Voice commands is a nice to have. Voice recognition capabilities have worked quite well so far.
- You can customize the start and shut down screen, and there's a sleuth of cool options on Home.
- Maps of Europe. Haven't tried it yet - but I'm planning an European trip this fall - it's good to know ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - TomTom support is not worth the price
I am on my second TomTom product and have been moderately satisfied with the products. I have always had trouble acquiring a signal and it often takes two to three minutes to acquire a signal. That alone makes it impossible to navigate out of an unfamiliar airport. But once the unit catches on it works fairly well.

I am most recently disappointed with TomTom support. I purchased an updated North America map and have had great difficulty downloading it. Also, I purchased the map at full ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Tom Tom
Took this Tom-Tom on a trip out of state to an unfamiliar area. It was a real lifesaver. Can't say that I was real fond of some of the areas it sent us through at night but I guess it doesn't know about those things. Well worth the money spent on it. Now, if my husband can just figure out how to use the blue tooth function making his phone hands free as required by our state July 1 - the reason I bought it for him in the first place - we will really be in business!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - VERY STAISFIED CUSTOMER!
I purchased this GPS system after talking to my son who owns the same GPS. He did alot of research before purchasing this particular brand & model. It is all he said it was. We used it on vacation a couple of weeks ago, and it was fantastic!! I never knew traveling could be so easy. I highly recommend this GPS to others. It has alot of wonderful features, very accurate directions, very easy to understand, and very easy to use. It was also a very pleasant buying experience.....reasonable price & quick shipping. ...
