TomTom lets TomTom ONE 3rd Edition loose on North America

by Donald Melanson, posted Aug 30th 2007 at 5:03PM

Looking to keep all its bases covered, TomTom's now followed up its just-announced high-end Go 920 T navigator with the decidedly lower-end TomTom ONE 3rd Edition. From the looks of it, the big additions this time around are support for TomTom's Map Share technology (previously seen on the company's higher-end units), a new "enhanced UI," and a new "HELP ME!" feature, which apparently includes everything from directions to the nearest hospital to car maintenance information to first aid instructions. Otherwise, you'll get the same 3.5-inch touchscreen as before, along with 1GB of internal memory, an RDS-TMC connector, and leather case and strap to "protect you TomTom device in style." Look for this one to be available sometime next month for the budget-friendly price of $249.

I just received one after much anticipation. I was very excited to play with it that evening, but the next morning all I got was a white screen when I turned it on. I reset it and it came up correctly. Then I tried turning it off and on several times over the course of the day - most of the time it gave me the white screen of death, even after resetting it. Needless to say I'm returning it.

They have a patch for that white screen on tomtom's website. I can't remember where but, it's a common thing, otherwise the thing is a great little unit, once you patch it.
