 Love the maps, hate the unit. July 30, 2010
janus657 (Cincinnati, OH USA)
I am a huge fan of TomTom's mapping software. I first saw their software on my brother's Palm Treo. It was the first GPS system program that actually impressed me with its clear map labels and easy to use interface. TomTom's stand-alone unit gives you the ability to mark maps for editing later, in case you find a flaw in the map en-route. This model has the advantage of a huge 5 inch screen making it easy to read and operate. And the voice is pretty good at prompting directions and pronouncing street names.
The software is great, but the unit itself drives me crazy. It CANNOT hold a charge at all. Even when its turned off, it still looses battery charge. It takes it a long time to find the GPS satellite after starting up. And its difficult to mount without using all three hands.
Overall find the TomTom XXL 540 extremely useful. I would be lost without it. But if I had to do it over again, I would not buy this model. If I'd probably go for the smaller 4.5 inch screens. Maybe they would have better battery life. Otherwise I'd check out GPS map systems from Garmin.

The Tom Tom I purchased is nice ,but is still plagued with the inability to CORRECTLY get me where I need to go with some level of efficiency.Also there is no way to transfer Favorite addresses to it from my older one.

I received my TomTom XXL 540TM World Edition and immediately went to update the maps. I will be traveling to Lithuania Poland and Hungary. I noticed that only maps of the USA, Canada and Mexico were updated.
I phoned customer service to ask about the Europe map updates and was told that first I must update USA maps then I will be given options to update Europe. After completion no options for Europe map updates were available.
I called back and was told that only USA maps get updated and that I must buy the Europe map updates. I thought that this was impossible and called back to get the same answer.
With that I looked at the information on the Amazon site which clearly states "Free Lifetime Traffic and Map Updates for the US, Canada, Mexico & Europe."
I looked on the box and it says exactly the same thing.
I called back and I was told that I should refer to their web site and Europe maps are not included. I explained that it states that lifetime updates are included right on the box and I was told that I am mistaken. I then spoke to a supervisor who explained that there was a miscommunication and that everyone thought that I was trying to update after one year and Europe maps are only updated for a 1 year period (again TomTom states free updates for life).
All lies by TomTom - they do not want to update to the latest Europe maps. I did get my upgrade and I found out that it was handled as a courtesy.
This is not a courtesy - the box and all of the TomTom documentation for the XXL 540TM World Edition states "Free Lifetime Traffic and Map Updates for the US, Canada, Mexico & Europe."
AVOID TomTom
