No bread crumbs needed,Wonderful Tomtom 3 GPS

by bickie , Dec 30, 2007
Pros: User friendly, priced right, easy to follow directions
Cons: Only 'Quick' manual in box. Full manual on CD so you need to print it.
The Bottom Line: This is my new best friend. Very easy to use, right out of the box. Help button nice to have, clear voice with excellent direction. Love Tomtom 3.

Review: I am a grandmother who is noted for "getting Terrible lost" when when Travel to new places. Usually, the brunt of a few jokes. Alas, I must give you an example I went from PA to NJ and ended up in West Point, NY. They are still laughing over that...
