Great Basic Navigation Device

I got my TomTom ONE 125 a few weeks ago and I really like the simple interface and quick route calculations. It has a very intuitive user interface and it's easy to program your "favorite" locations. You can enter a destination, buy a "point of interest" such as gas stations, restaurants, parks, tourist attractions, etc. Or you can enter in an exact address, or longitude/latitude coordinates. If you only know the cross streets, that's an option too. Want to browse the map near you, in a different city? No problem, just tap where you want to go on the "Browse Map" option. It also gives you the estimated arrival time and how many miles left you have to go. I strongly recommend getting familiar with your Navigation device before driving anywhere. It is not safe to fiddle with it while you are actively driving.

My only criticism of the device is that mine takes 15-30 seconds to turn on, while holding the on button down. And sometimes it can take several minutes to pick up a good satellite signal, but usually it takes about a minute.

In the box, you'll get a handy computer interface (CD with the driver and software) for your TomTom, a USB cable that also charges the unit, and a car charger. The map included with my TomTom ONE 125 has a map of the entire USA. You can also get free map and device updates via the internet, as well as share your own map corrections. All-in-all I would recommend this GPS device for anyone who hates getting lost and is looking for a basic device to get them from point A to point B. Happy trails!

Got this for my daughter and she loves it. The price was the best I could find and the shipment was quick and reliable.

BEWARE check before you buy

I bought a TomTom GPS. After eleven months the screen went blank and the unit would not respond. Do a GOOGLE search on ' TomTom white screen of death ' you will find hundreds of complaints. The TomTom customer support is terrible. You must wait on hold for at least thirty minutes. And then a rep will refuse to allow you to return the unit untill you have spent hours trouble shooting. They email you detailed, complicated instructions you must follow trying to restore the screen. Nothing worked for me and then the unit died. Then they question your warranty. Had to fax a copy of the receipt before they would consider issuing a return authorization. The whole customer service ordeal took two weeks to resolve and I still have not received the RMA promised via email yesterday. Buy a Garmin. yOu will be a lot happier.

Can't even find a GPS signal

We purchased this product for your basic usage and we didn't want to spend a bunch. This product can't even find itself! It can't locate a signal from our cul-de-sac. Half of the roads in town aren't on it and did I mention that I can drive all around without it finding a signal!!! Unfortunately, we've relied on it too many times and been stranded. Now it is money down the drain.
