Tom Tom Go 710 or 910?

jmsanghvi

I am thinking of buying a Tom Tom but confused.

There is a price difference of 50 quid but 910 looks good as it has got 20 Gb hard drive, Text-to-speech and remote control over 710.

Does 710 give problems as the software is on SD card?

Please help!

Thanks

Any suggestions please?

Used a 710 on a banger rally last September to take us all the way from Bath to Naples in Italy and back to Rome.
No issues with it at all, I even updated the maps with the pocket GPS speed camera database, so I knew where all the speed cameras were all the way to Italy.

early 710's did have an occasional locking up issue, that would require a reset to sort out.
We had a later one which never had this issue.

The biggest advantage of a 910 is the USA maps, the 710 will also do the h/f car kit / mp3 thing.

Unless you travel to the USA regularly, I'd go for the 710

can the 710 not be updated with maps to the US?

frankly both seem overpriced to me a tomtom one will set you back £175 while th 910 is £340 odds.

personaly i dont plan on leaving the uk so driving elsewhere aint an issue to me and the rest of the stuff seems like not much use, £165 will buy you a very nice mp3 player that does a lot more
