Disadvantages: Terrible Menu system, hard to change setting

I used 720 for over 6 months of daily usage this is what you need to know. The screen is bright and clear 4.3" LCD touch screen and very easy to read. The screen is customizable, you can download different map colors, customize the readout info, eta, arrival time, etc.. Routing is quick and generally accurate occasionally the routing will not be the optimum way to go , but the final destination is usually 95% accurate. Miss a turn and a new route ...
...software the 720 will update itself with the latest map corrections, a nice feature. Battery life is about 4 hours at 75% brightness setting. The 720 has a SiRFstarIII chipset which very fast acquiring signals. Rarely did I lose a signal. Now the bad part,the menu layout sucks finding the right menu to change a setting is NOT easy compared to garmin nuvi. Overall a very good unit ... Read review

Once, I was going in a way that I had gone few times but it was very unfamiliar. One day the road was on construction. I was ... Read review

Advantages: Graphical interface is flawless
Disadvantages: None

I have owned my TomTom GPS receiver for nearly a month now and I now wonder how I ever survived without it. The interface is so clearly laid out that I genuinely feel absolutely any body could use this without any problems.

With the job I am in I travel all over the country to a different ...
