TomTom ONE 130S Car GPS Receiver

Recently purchased the TomTom 130s. This model is one level higher than the 130 version that is part of the ONE series. We recently decided to purchase a GPS system based on a recent trip to Oahu, Hawaii. It was there where we found ourselves lost around town on the first day. When I realized we had a navigation option via our cell phone company, we used it for the remainder of the trip and it became a lifesaver! The per day cost to use our GPS option via our cell phone started to add up. That's when we thought purchasing one for everday use while on the trip would be the better economical solution! Because of this, now any road trip across the country, no matter what city, we can get around without stopping and asking for directions because we have our TomTom. Purchasing one for a flat fee is a better choice versus paying a monthly charge added to your cell bill. That cost will add up exponentially per year. Getting a TomTom or any GPS system now will be 20 times cheaper and it will pay for itself!! Currently we are using our TomTom for everyday driving use and the features on it are great. Not only will you never get lost by using this GPS system, you'll discover "POI's" points of interest you've never known were around your own city. That's what we've currently been discovering! The ease of working the GPS is as easy as using a laptop, a cell phone, or any electronic device you thought you might never thought you could operate. The other day, we had to attend a function in our city at a venue we've never been to before. By putting the address in the GPS, our Tom Tom calculated driving time, gave step by step driving directions to the venue and got from point A to point B in no time at all. Our decision to choose the TomTom 130s was also based on the text to speech feature where a computer voice speaks step by step directions when you are driving. Some lower end model TomTom's and other GPS brands don't do that. Highly recommend a GPS that speaks. The other great feature of our 130s are the different screen views, navigation options, ability to interact with other TomTom users via the upload/download TomTom home computer program you can install on your computer, and the quick touch screen use while using your TomTom on the road. If you've ever thought you'd never need a GPS system even in your home town, I almost guarantee that one day you'll be thanking yourself for getting one!
