Product Description:
TomTom presents the new and improved version of its Go 510 with the TomTom Go 920 T. Its 4.3? screen is larger than the 4? screen on the 510, and this GPS is one of the first to incorporate voice recognition technology. The TomTom Go 920 T will record your voice and memorise your vocal navigation queries while you're on the road. You?ll be able to ask your GPS to calculate the shortest or quickest itinerary between points A and B, and you can even confirm or cancel an order, all with your own voice. The TomTom Go 920 T allows you to save step-by-step instructions of your itinerary, and you can choose between pre-recorded voices, the voice of a family member or your own voice to guide you as you travel. With a never-before-seen graphics interface, this GPS navigator gives a sleek look to its maps and shows building contours on the ground. The TomTom Go 920 T has several points of interest and the positions of fixed speed cameras in its memory. It's completely customisable, and you can even save your own points of interest and addresses or personal notes along the road or itinerary. You?ll even be able to get the latest traffic information through its TMC antenna. The MAPSHARE function lets you modify the maps that are stored in the GPS memory. You can modify road names and the direction of traffic as well as other elements, and send them to the TomTom community by connecting your GPS to your computer. TomTom users can receive new updates this way. In addition, this GPS includes a help menu to give you a hand in case of problems or unexpected situations. You?ll also find a direct-access Bluetooth-telephone function with a list of the nearest police stations and hospitals. But the innovations don?t stop with the GPS functions, as they?re also present in terms of design. The TomTom Go 920 T includes aluminium inserts for a comfortable touch and feel and complete discretion when it's on your windscreen. Plus, the TomTom Go 920 T offers a



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very good but doesn't do Greece
As many of the other reviews say the 920T is feature rich and many of them work very well. The satellite lock on is excellent, I've used the Navigation very successfully in UK and USA cities. It has flaws though, the menus are clunky, I've never found how to set speed preferences and as with most Sat Navs it can bizarrely recommend local routes several miles longer than the ideal.

What really annoys me is it's advertised as covering Europe - it doesn't. Well not unless Europe has suddenly lost Greece. Tom Tom won't even sell you an add on map for Greece (it doesn't do Malta either). So if you're off to Greece and counting on a Tom Tom to help you navigate - right now best forget it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Voice recognition works only on one map!!!
I have had my Tom Tom 920 for a couple on weeks now. I am very impressed with the functions especially the speech input for addresses.
However, be warned. The voice recognition software will only work on the maps for one continenant. ie If purchased in the UK it will work on the European maps, but not North America, likewise, if purchased from the US the voice recognition will work for those maps but not Europe. I have contacted Tom Tom customer services who gave me this information.
They state that there is no fix and you won't find any mention of it on their web site.
That said, if you are not too bothered by this you will not be dissappointed with the 920.
If you want to add music to the unit you will need to buy ... Read More:



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't buy if you have a Mac
Do not buy this product if you have a Mac as the support team only have Windows tools to fix problems. I bought a new map but after installing it the device is "unable to store settings: file access error". The only solution from TomTom is to plug the device into a Windows PC and run a Windows exe. So I'm stuck with a device that either won't work or works with an out-of-date map. AVOID.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 920 T is worth every penny
This is my first Sat Nav and it ticks all the right boxes. Setup is easy and simple, the software works the very first time (no repeated installs - atleast on my Windows XP laptop). The GPS quick fix (via PC or laptop) is a really useful feature - it downloads the satellite positions for the next 7 days so that TomTom can lock on almost instantly to one or more of them. The GPS function itself is ultra-sensitive and very accurate. I've never been misled even once on London roads. The FM transmitter works very well with my Ford Mondeo - absolutely no issues here. The downside is that the windscreen mount is not too good and there's a little trick to fixing it so that it does not fall off - the TomTom Alternative mount should be instead provided ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great for holiday journeys in the USA, useless for the daily commute in the UK
First the good. The software works very well, and the TomTom Home 2.0 application you need to get the latest updates is now available for the Mac as well as the PC. I found TomTom to be absolutely indispensible while travelling East Coast USA for three weeks and that was my primary reason for buying it. Road maps in the USA are difficult to follow (as the scale can change drastically from page to page), and TomTom got me from New York to Harrisburg PA, right up to the Adirondacks and back to New York again with absolutely no problems whatsoever. From that point of view, it was money well spent.

Here in the UK, the "traffic safety camera" alerts seem to work okay, but sometimes display the wrong speed limit or warn you of a camera ... Read More:
