Shoppers: TomTom's no longer offer FM transmitting of voice instruction due to laws in Europe they have DISABLED FM Transmitting for the entire world.
Existing Go 730 users: if you perform the necessary firmware update above 8.01 you will LOSE FM transmitting of voice instruction. TomTom has disabled this feature for the entire world. Garmin, took a much more logical approach and only disabled it in Hungary and Poland (the two countries that ban the FM tranmission).
All TOM TOM doesn't have auto power start or auto music start...this means u have to manually turn the unit on everytime u start the igniton...this can be annoying when u have to make short stops...
with the new devices you get a latest map guarantee- if updated maps come out within one month after your activation of the unit, you get to upgrade for free
Tomtom hijacked the open source community. They sneaky put Linux their machines. It took a lot to accept the principles of Open Source. Still you cannot do what you want with it, like Vista. 1000's of people would give an arm if they could make programs for it. Some do. But it still isn't allowed. Why is there TT Home then? Without it you can't do ANYTHING. And you need their FUCKING account. I use Linux on my desk/laptop. But there is no Home for it?! They're afraid someone hacks it.
thng i hate about tomtom is in postcode mode it only lets you enter the first three parts of the code and the other half you just tap the street. Copilot allows you to enter the full postcode
i use a GO 720, and it's been great to me. the mapshare feature is clutch.. the corrections from other users definitely ensures everything is more accurate.
I tottaly agree with icke on these issues. I mean the fact that everybody is given names that millions of other people have is meaningless. Even our names are just used to control us for identification purphouses by the controllers
I just bought a tomtom go 720 I can even download any musicdirectly from the pc or using a memory card can someone explain to me how to do it? thank you
Tomtom has more options, I believe its easier to use, and it has mapshare (it just go its 1 millionth map corrections this week) oh and free updates from map share are free! Can't get that from garmin
There isn't a subscription cost for the downlandable free map corrections. Key word here is free...the program is called "mapshare", its an opensource program that other users update and free for you to use and download to the go 720. pretty cool program.
What I wanna know is if there is a subscription cost for the downloadable free map corrections. The older model garmin that I have offers one free update per year I believe, but it doesn't have periodical updates.

TomTom 720 has known speaker problems. I have added a video explaining this. Check it out if you are interested.

I'd support any company that uses Linux to power their gadgets, and then open sources their code.
I wish TomTom would stay more open source..

The music should be put in a specific directory on the SD-card.
Was it 'MP3' or something like that?
