    "issue with maps being too large"

    by Orkilatrish on September 8, 2009

    Pros: Found a great price on craigslist

    Cons: Bit wary of the negative reviews posted here... will give it a go anyway

    Summary: I found a ridiculously good deal on this Tomtom on craigslist, but before buying it, I rang Tomtom tech support (which was very quick to do and the young lady was actually in the states not oursourced somewhere) to see if the previous issue with the large maps had been resolved. Turns out, according to Tomtom tech anyway, that it isn't the overly large maps that causes the trouble, but when people download additional computer voices, this is what causes the GPS's brain to get too full. I am off to go purchase the thing this evening and will keep you posted.

    I just purchased my Tomtom XL 340s, and I couldn't install the Map Guarantee, until I contacted tech support and they walked me through removing several of the voices that are pre-loaded on the unit. This is very frustrating, as it took over an hour to get to the point of finding out there was not enough space on the unit. Now, after going through the install process, my GPS is no longer working. It turns on and freezes. I cannot turn it off. There is no reset pin hole, that I can find. Because I can't turn it off, the battery just runs down. I'm totally frustrated with this unit. Good luck to everyone who buys one. I'm returning mine.
