GPS navigation systems aren't only for people who have no internal compass; they're great for anyone in need of hands free navigation. TomTom came out with its newest GPS navigation system just in time for family vacations over the summer.

TomTom Go 730 Price and Features

When bought brand new, the TomTom Go 730 can set the buyer back up to $350, but it is well worth the investment for such a handy product. One of the most popular characteristics of the new GPS System is the size of its screen. The screen is about 4.5 inches, so that the map is easy to see and words are easy to read, not too big and not too small. The Advanced Lane Guidance feature is also helpful, providing a three dimensional highway diagram indicating which lane the driver should be in, a helpful tool that prevents the driver from missing highway exits.

As if having the TomTom Go 730 wasn't enough like having a helpful friend in the car, TomTom has added a feature to this device that allows the user to customize the voice in which directions are given. The user can customize the voice to imitate a favorite celebrity, which adds a touch of fun to a very practical device. The TomTom Go 730 is is the best choice for first time GPS buyers.

TomTom XL 340S Features

If you don't like swerving across several lanes of traffic at the last second because you just realized you’re about to miss your turn or exit, the Advanced Lane Guidance feature will come in handy. In most GPS product lines you would have to step up in price to get this. A feature Tom Tom calls IQ Routes calculates the fastest route to your destination using data collected from real-world users. Other units often rely solely on speed-limit data. The Tom Tom XL 340S Bluetooth GPS comes equipped with its own software. This allows you to interface it with your PC or MAC to download maps, plan trips, get updates, and install new voices. You can find local emergency services with the “Help me!” feature, plan itinerary on the device, and even add points of interest.

The unit can be tricky to mount on some deep sloping dashes, but priced around $250, all in all the Tom Tom XL 340S Bluetooth GPS is a great bang for your dashboard GPS dollar.
