Tomtom GO 700 GPS Receiver

The unit arrived very quickley and was as advertised. The price was an absolute bargain.
The TomTom was not for me but for my girlfriends parents, who are not as technically minded as myself. They were very pleased with it and have got to grips with using it very quickly.
The company it was purchased from would certainly get my recommendations.

this product is great even at long distances,thanks ebayer,very happy.bought so we don,t get lost,when going abroad.

Good product!highly recommended seller. great communication.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=

Mid/top range tomtom sat nav device, since been replaced by the tomtom 710/910 (Which are much the same, only with a wider screens and more compact). Easy to use even for the beginner, you can either type in, via the 3.5" touchscreen, the town then road name (even the street number) or the postcode and it will take you straight there. You can store your frequently visited places so you don't have to re-type address each time. Very useful, especially if you have speed camera locations loaded on it (Might pay for itself in saved fines !)
There are many free websites where you can download POI's (Points of Interest) like swimming pools, congestion charge zones or a particular shop brand.
Beware, thieves love them, mine was stolen, I have the 510 now but the 700 is just the same when it comes to directions and after all, that's what it's for. Bin your maps and get one !

I purchased my TomTom 700 about 2 months ago and love it. The map is really clear and intuitive, the POI (Points Of Interest) eg petrol stations have got me out of trouble more than once, the postcode entry makes destination finding a cinch. The remote is not just a gizmo - I actually use it a lot if I'm driving. On the downside, it doesn't seem to like my SonyEricsson K800 - it'll connect for traffic info but not calls, and I found the instruction manual worse than useless (being psycic helps...)On balance I would strongly recommend it though. Most of the team in the office use TomTom and all are happy, in fact, it is a lot clearer than some of the high-end built-in Satnavs!

My Name is Tony Hogben, I own a 700 and purchased it a year ago and think its great, I have read a few reviews below and lots of other people reviewing this product dont know that they are talking about or have not used many other satnavs to compare them, the 700 has full 7 digit postcode support and takes you door to door, the GPS is sirf 3 and this is top of the range thier still to this day 6th march 2007 not a faster GPS unit on the market, ( Iread a review claiming the other units are faster and this is not correct, nothing is faster than the 700), some PDA computers running tomtom software might work out a route quicker, but we are talking about the 700 plans a 500 miles in under 25 seconds so its not slow and faster than 95% of others at planning routes as well).

The interface is very very easy to use and the fact this got postcode, full voice makes it the best selling European satnav on the market. The 700 has now been replaced by the 710, however must customers wont use the ipod connection that the 710 has, the maps are the same so your paying extra for a 710 for features that you wont use, if you can pick up a 700 for a good price you wont be disapointed.

Bought this item around 15 months ago just as the range was changing to the newer models. The TT has been 100% reliable and as it uses a hard disk system rather than memory cards you can store loads of maps on it without the worry of losing or damaging memory cards. One great feature is the ability to download safety camera locations, meaning as you approach a known camera site the TT will warn you and you can adjust your speed if needed. Try and get your TT with the newest available maps(map version numbers on TT website) as upgrades are pretty pricey but can be downloaded if you prefer. This product is worth its weight in gold, but with its hands free telephone feature and customisable POI's this unit stands out. With newer ones now on the market you should be able to grab a bargain.

got lost on holiday last year, difficult if you don't know the language, bought it, testet it, great.

this was advertised at christmas i wanted to buy as a present.
the advertising was very informative pictures dimensions, wasn't describe as reconditioned, at the bottom of the page in extremly small print in brackets stated reconditioned the price was £20 cheaper than buying a new one from high street shop therefore i felt cheated the item worked for two weeks. after leaving negative feedback i received a nasty reply from the seller. basically this was a con

Have used a Go 700 in France 4 times last year and i would have been up the creek without the peverbial paddle, had i not had it! Easy to use and set up. Bluetooth allows handsfree phone calls (providing your phone supports bluetooth) which saves you pulling over each time the phone rings.All in all, a superb piece of kit, that can be easily moved from one car to another, so, if you go away and hire a car, just take your tot tom,plug in and away you go.
