Comment:
Originally seemed to be very accurate and quick. As it got older, it lead me down cul-de-sacs and zig-zagging through many side streets instead of taking direct main roads. Takes the LONG way even though set on quickest route. Very slow now to pick up satellite. Seems the older it gets and more it is updated, the more imprecise it becomes. Does have nice multi-lane feature for exiting interstates and other main roads. But, looking at getting a Garmin.

Comment:
Southbound on toll way in Austin, TX Tom Tom had me get off toll, then reenter toll road in opposite direction until I figured out it had me going in CIRCLES! My brother is a witness! Another time it had gotten me off course by two miles (I missed my doctor's appointment) to almost 30 miles. I have used it over and over on the same route measuring over 200 miles and it can calculate several different Fast routes....NOT! Works good if you have a road Atlas or you mapquest the route before you start your trip. Several people thought that I should have bought a Garmin, they are right & I have to eat crow (That's all there is when you're away from civilization LOST!
