OT, insight on Tom T*m GPS for Mrs...
 
Any real reason the smallest one (on sale for 149.00) should not do
her well. I know the bigger one has a bigger screen, and the big one
you can add a SD card. We might do one or two big trips a year, but
mostly around the tri state area maybe 100 miles max when we do take
off somewhere. Anyway, any comments, what should I know, how do I hook
it up... arrrrrrgh? Is the one I got adequate?

Thanks. justwait

The TomTom One? It's great - same one I have.

Just when you update it, make sure you use TomTom Home 2, not Home 1
which came with the GPS. Install TomTom Home 1, then upgrade it, then
update the latest sat data.

It's pretty simple.

surprised.

You got a disk with your unit - just install it - that's TomTom Home.
Before you plug in your GPS to update the GPS fix info and the unit
upgrade, upgrade the interface software to TomTom Home 2.

It's right on the screen - can't miss it.

When Home 2 is running, then hook up the GPS and update it.

No disk in the package, and it was pretty bulletproof...

Help says I am running version 2.1.2.121. Is that what you are talking
about, what you run?
