The large 4.3 inch touch screen has TomTom's renowned easy-to-use and intuitive user interface with 3D graphics including building footprints that ensures drivers have an even better overview of their surroundings.

The TomTom GO range also sees the introduction of TomTom's unique new map improvement technology, TomTom Map Share . This technology enables drivers to easily and instantly improve their own maps. It also lets users share improvements and benefit from all other users' improvements, daily, automatically and easily via TomTom HOME - TomTom's free software application. TomTom has the world's largest satellite navigation community with over 10 million users. TomTom Map Share users can contribute and exchange all their improvements amongst each other, making the best maps available for all of them. TomTom Map Share means TomTom drivers can always have the most up-to-date maps and inside local knowledge at their fingertips.

Other new and updated features include speech recognition, meaning users have an extra option to select the address they want to drive to. Users can choose to select the speech recognition button and then simply speak out the city and street name they would like to travel to.

Safety is a key priority in the development of all TomTom products. The new TomTom GO comes with uniquely designed safety features so drivers always have direct access to extensive safety and roadside assistance information wherever they go. The extensive 'Help Me!' menu includes information such as the way to the nearest hospital, car maintenance information and first aid instructions. Another new safety feature is the short-cut menu, which enables drivers to jump straight to their favorite, most accessed information with just one touch on the screen for even easier and safer navigation (see separate press release for more information on the extensive safety features).

The new TomTom GO range offers the latest and most up-to-date traffic information through its compatibility with RDS-TMC Traffic and TomTom's Traffic subscription, making drivers' journeys more efficient and stress-free. The enhanced traffic information user interface provides drivers with the most accurate route calculation by taking into account the current traffic information on the road and giving precise information about traffic incidents.

The new TomTom GO range comes with extensive audio options for flawless integration with the car stereo and user's phone. Drivers can play their favorite songs through the integrated MP3 player or by connecting their iPod to the TomTom GO. In addition, music and navigation instructions can be played seamlessly through the car stereo via the built-in FM Transmitter.

With the new TomTom GO, drivers can choose from a host of smart extras, making sure the destination is reached in a relaxed and enjoyable way. A number of personalization options, such as recording your own driving instructions, have been added for the first time so users can easily record their own voice, or be guided to their destination by the voices of their children, family or friends. Drivers can also view documents and pictures and exchange positions, destinations and other content with other TomTom GO users, through Bluetooth wireless technology.

 ... add-on for a hand held computer, or PDA. This is a good option if you have or need a well specced PDA as the SatNav package will probably only cost £100 or so extra. This gives you a pretty good device but there are downsides, you'd need a separate GPS receiver (which should be supplied) and this means another bit of kit floating around the car and more trailing wires. My first SatNav was like this and without anything to compare it to I was very happy with it for a couple of years. That is until I got this dedicated unit ...more

Crowned Review TomTom Go 720T: Take me home, country roads (1365 words)
by - written on 14/03/08 (Very useful, 478 readings)

TomTom 720T SatNav devices remind me a little of mobile phones in the early nineties. They are a little bit pricey, a little bit niche and until recently the preserve of gadget freaks and those who drive for a living. These days they are a lot more prolific and I can foresee a time when they will be just as ubiquitous as mobile phones and everyone with a car will have one, and no doubt more than one if they have more than one car in the house. This is my second SatNav device and I can't imagine ever not having one now. They keep getting better and I rarely consult the A - Z now except to get the broadest idea of where I'm going and how to ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review TomTom Does It Again (466 words)

TomTom is a trustworthy name when it comes to GPS units. I recently bought this and loved it. The TomTom GO 720T is an updated version of the GO 510 which was an amazing GPS unit itself. The TomTom GO 720T has a comfortable 4.3 inch widescreen and this unit is one of the first GPS systems to have VRT (Voice Recognition Technology). The system records your voice and gives you an answer to your vocal question of your chosen route. You can ask the TomTom to work out your route from point A to B by simply using your voice. The TomTom allows you to choose from a number of pre set voices to guide you through your journey or even your own voice. The ...  Read the complete review
