Tom Tom One Third Edition January 9, 2009
This unit is very good. It seems at least as good as others I have owned and used. There is a distinct lack of points of interest compared to Garmin units but this is offset by ease of operation. I do wish this unit would tell me if my destination is on the right or left. Several times I have found myself in the wrong lane of a very busy street.
 I don't recommend January 7, 2009
> Takes very long to identify the signals
> Zooming functionality is not so good
> There is no easy way to avoid a specific street/highway
> Suitable to those who are familiar with the city
> Absolutely not suitable for those who are not familiar with the city
I love and recommend the Magellan GPS, it has got several other good features.
Tom Tom One works well January 7, 2009
I love my refurbished Tom Tom in general but I have to say that the website for Tom Tom is very confusing. I was sent some simple directions about how to download the latest map and they were a joke. After trying for an hour I had to call someone (A nice helpful person) to walk me through it. I would say the same about making a backup file. Very confusing. The downloading and backing up took a long time so anyone who is doing it needs to be patient. I am disappointed that Tom Tom has so few gas stations, restaurants, etc. in their data base. It is not much help in that regard. I would like to be able to search for a particular brand of gas station. I have the smallest Tom Tom and find that is is very adequate and I really do not miss hearing the name of the next street. The refurbished Tom Tom was a good deal for me!
Good product !!! Excelent price !!! January 7, 2009
The TomTom One Third Edition is a good product with an excellent price in amazon.com. The only thing that I didn't like was that didn't have its data base update and you need to be cautious with the information gived.
 Sweet for Cheap January 7, 2009
I had some experience with a friend's GPS (also a TomTom), so was inclined to buy this brand. Never having bought a refurbished item before, I wasn't sure what to expect, but at the price, there wasn't much to lose.
I was concerned about the quality of the product before I even got it, but when it came, it was beautiful- just like brand new. There were no scratches or nicks; it looked relly good. But did it work? I plugged it in for a while before playing with it just to make sure the battery was charged up. When I turned it on, everything appeared like it was supposed to, the pages came up like you'd expect. It acquired satellites like it was designed to- very quickly. I tapped in my home and selected a destination and it immediately calculated a route. Nice! The menus are very easy to navigate and use.
I have used it several times and am very pleased with its performance. It's simple to select a destination and go. If I get off-route to see something or go to the bathroom or whatever, it recalculates the route in maybe two seconds. I have only used a fraction of the features; the rest I wouldn't call unnecessry, I just haven't had occasion to use them.
A few things about this unit cause me a little bother. In unfamiliar, densely roaded places I have almost taken a wrong exit because of the format of what it says. It says "Take exit (pause) in 200 yards." I don't know if there is a setting for changing the order of the verbiage, but I am aware of this now and know to anticipate. Another thing is the display of my position as it travels along the road. It doesn't always seem to be exactly whrere I am, i.e., the beginning of a highway exit, going under an overpass, crossing roads. This is also a minor issue; I'm not driving on instruments. I don't remember my friend's GPS being like that, though. I have had two instances of the GPS calculating a route from my home that was obviously not the shortest distance nor the quickest. This happened very near my house so I knew to disregard it. I have no doubt about it being able to efficiently direct me from one place to another; in a strange place I might lose a minute or a mile, but not much. Again, when I did go a different way, it was very fast in recalculating. Oh, one more thing- I wish manufacturers or refurbishers wouldn't pack the power cord folded over and tightly bound. It makes it difficult to run the cord nicely in the car, especially in the cold. A better way might be to coil it in the box- there's enough rooom in there, and it would be less likely to snag on everything in the car.
All up, this was a very good value. I wouldn't know it was refurbished except it was advertised that way. It does come with a warranty, too. I'm very pleased with this purchase.
