Piece of junk! Support Sucks, Other better choices.
There are some strong features of the TomTom 720 (fast satellite acquisition and quick route generation), however, it falls far short of being as useful as other GPS units. I purchased the 720 to replace my older Lowrance 500c which is much larger and a much heavier unit. This is important to me as I travel frequently to multiple cities and states for business and must carry a lot of "stuff" along. I expected improvements over the time I have owned the Lowrance in size, speed, database utilities, etc. Well I was greatly disappointed. The points of interest database is ridiculously anemic, including almost nothing and TomTom effectively says you're on your own by suggesting that you search the internet to improve their database short comings. In addition, multiple calls to TomTom support yielded multiple answers to the same questions and they actually sent me the wrong updated maps to fix the random POIs that failed to function. After reloading the entire device (twice) and still experiencing software failures, I asked for a RMA number to return the unit. TomTom 2nd level support (in an extremely condescending way) told me the fact that the POIs don't work on my 720 does not mean the GPS doesn't work so they refused to issue the RMA. WHAT?! People purchase a GPS to find things and places while traveling, but in the mind of TomTom, you will need to know what you need before you ever need it or leave home. You must then manually put hotels, restaurants or stores in the 720 one-by-one in every city or state you may travel to. What a joke! I have since sold the unit after owning it for 3 weeks (at a substantial loss), purchased a new Lowrance 600c and I have all the functionality anyone could need for business travel with a very deep database. Without question, my recommendation would be to RUN, do not walk away from TomTom and their "support" and look at basically any other unit. It's just not worth the hassle or aggravation.

Excellent, I now think much more of Mr. Stossel.
It's just amazing to me how many in the "main stream media" have turned on Mr. Stossel for reporting his honest observations on several topics, simply because his answers did not fit within the assumed guidelines. Ethics and integrity are intact, which further exposes the agenda of others from business, to the media, to the food industry.
