Which one to buy? Both will be on sale for $125. Which has better features,maps, directions etc. Jim My wife has the c330 in her Highlander. She loves it. The latest consumer reports lists both as best buys. Tom Tom One: Highs Very compact and portable. Includes an internal battery, and a lockout safety mode. Traffic and weather capable with compatible Bluetooth phone. Very customizable. Includes a large range of voice languages. Lows Bluetooth Traffic requires specific phones limited mostly to T-Mobile and Cingular. Fewer announcements of upcoming turns than most. Initial setup of traffic services can be frustrating. (TomTom will be offering FM traffic in the near future.) Does not speak street names. Bottom Line TomTom One is a good option in the $300 dollar range. The TomTom One is not loaded with features, but it combines good performance and portability. Garmin c330: Highs Includes a long-lasting internal battery, lockout safety mode, and a trip computer. Lows No extra features. Can't exclude a specific road from directions list. Does not speak street names. Bottom Line The Garmin StreetPilot c330 is an easy to-use navigator, with no bells and whistles. It is a solid choice for the consumer who just wants a travel aid at a good price. Hope that helps. The info above came, I think, from the Oct '07 issue. -- *****Have a Spectacular Day!***** John H |
