Editorial Review: Product Description: PRODUCT FEATURES:Enhanced Positioning TechnologyEasy access to traffic informationVoice address inputMaps of US, Canada and EuropeTomTom Map Share technologyHandsfree car kitBuilt-in FM transmitterBluetooth remote control included Amazon.com Product Description -- 10/02/08: The GO 920 and it's sibling, the 920T, are TomTom's new flagship portable gps navigators, replacing the GO 910. The GO 920T comes bundled with TomTom's RDS-TMC traffic receiver and a one-year subscription to the Clear Channel traffic service, which allows users to receive real-time traffic information. The traffic receiver is sold as a separate accessory for the GO 920.
The first big difference you'll notice is that the 920s are much thinner than the 910. TomTom introduced this slim form factor with last year's ONE. With the release of the top-of-the-line 920s, TomTom now offers a full range of units in the new form factor (see a feature comparison for all of TomTom's GO and ONE devices). When you turn it on, you'll also notice the increased performance and features the 920s packs into their slimmer form. What's New -- Enhanced Positioning Technology TomTom's new Enhanced Positioning Technology uses movement and gravity sensors to calculate drivers' positions when GPS signals are unavailable. This helps the device continue to navigate to its destination, even when there may not be a direct line-of-sight connection to a satellite (for example, when driving in a city with tall buildings, underpasses or bridges). What's New -- Voice Prompted Address Entry Voice prompted address entry gives users the option to speak the address to which they want to drive. Users can simply speak the city, street name and address number they would like to travel to, and the device will automatically calculate the route.
What's New -- Map Share The GO 920 includes TomTom's innovative new Map Share technology. Map Share enables users to make easy changes to the map and to share map corrections with other TomTom customers so that users always have the most up-to-date maps available. Widescreen View and FM Transmitter See more. Hear more. The GO 920 offers 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. The built-in FM Transmitter to play music and navigation instructions over the car stereo. Hands-Free Calling In more and more places, it is becoming illegal to use cell phones while driving without a hands-free kit. The GO 920's Bluetooth capability, microphone and speaker lets match it to any bluetooth-capable phone to make hands-free mobile phone calls. Maps The GO 920 comes come preinstalled with complete maps of the United States, Canada and Europe on 4 GB of internal memory.

 Rating:  - Tom Tom 920TI used my Garmin 2620 since 2005, weekly, as I travel extensively. I have never ugraded the maps. This Tom Tom was a gift, the idea being newer was better. It has good features, it was easier to enter an address, it recovers from route deviations quicker, it doesn't keep shouting "recalculating, recalculating," and the computer doesn't get confused as often. However, I searched for restaurants, and came up with 5 hits. Garmin gives restaurants from here to the next coast. I searched for an ...

We much prefer our tomtom over the gps in our car. Rating:  - Mediocre product, extremely poor serviceI've had this unit for less than six months and it's malfunctioned. It's stopped charging in the car, the screen flickers on and off and the speakers make sudden, loud crackling sounds. I contacted the company - the warranty is two years - and they refused to pay for the item to be shipped even though it's defective. Then I found out that they plan on sending me a refurbished unit back. If I had wanted to buy a refurbished unit, I would have bought it six months ago for a significant price difference. ... Read More Rating: - Excellent productVery powerful, an excellent choice with good navigation. Only one thing missed : Mexico maps. Rating:  - It works but not worth the priceSummary first: Plus: (1) Quick in recalculation of route; (2) Maps have street names on them; (3) Satisfactory selection of the places of interest. Minus: (1) Manual (included and online) can satisfy only retarded reader; (2) Some map errors cannot be forgiven; (3) bad customer service. This is my first GPS. I have tested it on 1000-mile-long trip (North-Eastern USA). Before the trip, I have updated everything - maps, satellite positions, voices. First surprise: ...
