What's in the Box
TomTom ONE device, suction mount, car charger, USB 2.0 data cable, and installation CD with connection software and manual.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Needs some tweaking, but all around a great nav system.
I've been using my TomTom ONE for a week and a half or so and overall, I'm quite happy with it. Out of the box or after having been moved a significant distance while off, the unit takes about a minute or so at most to determine its position. From a warm start, it's usually a matter of seconds.
Route calculations are generally finished quickly, as are recalculations when you fail to follow the route. Since the shortest rout distance-wise isn't always the fastest, I've diverted from the TomTom's original route and it usually recalculated a new route within moments of me going 'off course.'
I've only run across a couple downsides to the TomTom ONE, neither of which is too serious. First, the maps (at least in the DC/MD/VA metro area) are a few years out of date. There are a number of roads which just aren't in the unit's database. Some streets 'lose' their name for some reason. For example, one section of a street on the map may be labeled as 'Main Street'...

Great little device but needs a few fixes...
This is my first GPS (not counting the Delorme Earthmate which is too antique to compare). So I'm impressed! There's a lot to like here given that I wanted a basic "no frills" device.
The One boots up and fixes within 1-3 minutes probably depending on how much open sky it can see. The unit recalculates routes in seconds and I've only run into the dreaded "turn around when you can" advice once. The SirfStar III chipset is a big improvement over what I read about older devices. I love the suction-cup holder--it's amazingly steady and hasn't come off accidentally yet (helps if you wet it a little). The voice and speaker quality are very good although I don't see much impact of the "link volume to car speed" function. The navigation is accurate but you do have to be careful--the One has already tried to lead me into a restricted area of the Pentagon! It also calculated a route that took me off a highway and immediately back on just to take advantage of 1.5 miles of unrestricted...
Simple yet effective
Okay the first thing I would like to clear up is regarding other reviews of this product are basically hog wash. By that, no one really has a clue on what they are talking about even if they gave it 5 stars. No offence to anyone I just live an die testing technology prouducts. Ok since we got that out of the way I would like to point out if I was provided the opportunity this would have been 4.5 stars not 5; I will explain in a moment.
My Background:
- I have been providing Level 2-3 desktop and server support for the greater part of 8 years.
-Have owned/used three GPS units - two of which I will discuss today.
THE REAL REVIEW:
Overall the Tom Tom ONE Portable is an extremely nice unit with a few minor flaws. I will answer the most important question first. Is the unit reliable? The answer to that is clearly yes! Is the "Home" Software good? The answer is yes if downloaded from the site but NOT from the CD; it has been known...
