August 5, 2011Exactly as expected,
I got exactly what I expected. The latest map for my Tomtom 920 at a much lower price than I could have gotten it for directly from Tomtom. Note these have an expiration date so don’t buy it too far in advance.

August 5, 2011Good Product, Great Support,
I ordered the Map Update card for my TomTom One, 1st Edition, then couldn’t get the thing to load. I am way too smart to need help, ask my wife. So, I worked for a couple hours, getting the same result. Nada.
THEN I called TomTom Suport. The tech rep spent about a half-hour on the phone, walking me through updating my TOMTOM Home software, knowing how to perform administrative actions on my Mac. He next talked me through the actual map download process. He showed patience, knowledge and tact, far beyond the typical support I have received from software/hardware companies. And, yes, the downloaded map works just fine.

August 5, 2011A “real-time” review of TomTom 2009 US and Canada Map Update,
I’ve used TomTom Go 730 for a couple of years. I have been updating the map corrections and the TomTom Home software regularly, but I haven’t actually purchased a new map up until now. I noticed that in the few travels I do, new roads will appear and even airports relocate. Last week, when I missed my plane because the old map led me to the old site, I said to myself, “That’s it! Time for a new map!” If I were to purchase a map from the manufacturer, it would have cost me about eight-nine bucks. However, Amazon offered the same map almost forty bucks cheaper with the mapd update card. Once I received the card, I synced my TomTom and hit the activation menu. Lo and behold, the screen changed to a form where I could enter the activation code. (I was anxious that I would have to call TomTom support, as some other reviewers had reported, but I was relieved when I didn’t have to.) After that, I could confirm which version I was downloading, and I opened up a browser and went to the manufacturer’s website to see if I was getting the same map. And I was. So, I hit the next button, and here I am writing this review as I am downloading the map. The funny thing is that it’s taking me about 40-50 minutes to download the map. Oh well. I’m still satisfied because I didn’t have to cough up forty more dollars for it. By the way, I just learned that Amazon is now offering a direct download of the map, which really makes more sense. Currently it seems to be slightly more expensive to do that, but hey, you don’t have to wait a couple of days for the card to arrive. Finally, the entire program is downloaded after 40 minutes. It’s now copying to my internal card, which is probably out of memory at this point. I guess it will overwrite the old map. It’s taking me several minutes, even to copy the new map to the device. Update is complete, and I was able to confirm the new airport address and some newer roads that weren’t previously on the old map.
