TomTom announce the New range of GO devices one week before

You are probably correct but I do recall that TT5 was marketed as having a common "engine" with the other TT5 products. Ergo, what affects one should affect the other. Confused

Partially true, but as they use a different OS, it is usually here that different problems arise.

The Maps, and the Mapping Engine, are common.

It has been in all the papers saying they are in PC World. Not heard anything from Easy devices. Wonder when they will have them or should I go elsewhere!

I put in an email to Easy Devices late on Friday, so hope for an answer on Tuesday.

Yes I did that too so crossed fingers that they will be able to send them out this week.

I had pre-ordered the 910 from Easy Devices and received an email from them yesterday informing me they now have them in and I should have mine either Tues or Wed this coming week. Getting all excited now as I'm completely new to SatNavs

I know its been discussed a bit, but this will be my first purchase into the world of sat nav, so i am keen to get it right. I have pre ordered the 910 from easy devices, but am not sure if this is the correct decision. I will not be going to the US or Canada for about 2 years. I have visited the US many times including last year. My nexts trips will be in Europe, mostly Italy. Next year I will be in Australia for about 4 weeks, but it appears Tom Tom does not do maps of Australia. The only benefit I can see between the 910 over the 710 is the Maps of US and Canada and text to speech. My questions are:
1. Is text to speech a major step forward and worth having?
2. Have there been any reliability issues with having a hard disc instead of SD cards?
3. Are there any plans for Sat nav maps of Australia?
Any help would be of assistance.

Thanks

TomTom already has maps of Australia, but you need to purchase from Australia stockist or find another source.

I am also buying sat nav for the first time and I am wondering if anyone can tell me what they think is best.
I am looking at the new TomTom's or the new Nuvi's. Does anyyone have any experience of either or both?
