Had very bad impression with TomTom. Needed a car navigator badly but the Go-6200 never made it on time thus had to go with Go-6100. It was slow initially, but more or less enough, the cellular data was only good for real time traffic update. But in less than 2 years that was gone too coz TomTom decided to use a 2G module when 4G was everywhere and there was already a time table to retire 2G. That was just genius.

Put all that aside, the battery went bad just around a year, it becomes even slower after each firmware upgrade. But what really p*ssed me off was their explanation to lifetime map updates.

What they do need is really someone with better vision and ethics I would say.
