Update your TomTom software.

I did it yesterday and what a difference in performance.

No joke - I did the upgrade on the One I have and - get this - it
provides instant lock on satellites.

I'm absolutely serious - instant lock. As in full lock - ten
satellites.

I have no idea how they did it, but it boots faster and you get a full
lock on position instantly.

It's also tracking much better and before, it wasn't bad at all.

They changed something and it's really for the better.

As in WAY better.

I updated and it indeed locks in faster. But now I have to remove the
memory card (clicking on it so it dislodges) to turn the darn thing on.
Once on, I then click it back into position. Not a big deal but annoying.

I will be calling their support department tomorrow to see what the fix
is.


Why do you have a memory card?


The older, original TomTom's - like the 300 - had an SD card that contained
the maps.
The 700 model had the mini hard drive. Mine has an SD and Mrs.E.'s has the
hard drive.

Both can still be updated via the Internet download, but I haven't bothered.


Hmmm - I thought Jim had the TomTom One.

Which has a slot for a SD card, but the maps are preloaded.
