Tomtom 300 go

Finally bought a 300 go version for my Renault Clio and its fine apart from the UK maps being out of date. Some roads I use in the Midlands that have been built for years are not recognised by the software, and it states 'unnamed road' Also I found you need to position the unit as near to the windscreen as possible otherwise the GPS drops out at times and it looks like a fair ground ride!! Maybe I need to purchase an external aerial.

The simcard provided does not allow any additional downloads so a further expense of a new card maybe required.

Also I have a Nokia 6230i and the bluetooth operation keeps dropping out and its become impossible to use the traffic mode. However the tomtom list only provides for the 6230 version.

If you remove the simcard from the unit you will loose all your 'favourites' so beware!!!

I have found the customer relations so complicated and non existant. - Altogether a good product but no back up to support it
