Several years back I bought a LIVE 1535M TOMTOM for cheap... on sale for $89.
I have the same POS unit. More than once my wife has grabbed it from me while I was throwing it out the window. The routing of that unit is HORRENDOUS. And yes it is updated.
The other day on a long trip we tried my wife's smartphone GPS app. It successfully got us around Wash DC. Always a failure with the TomTom and my Xcite built in.
I would say the stand alone GPS unit will soon be a memory like the cassette tapes.
Hey AZ99, I just thought of something. Did you know that some of the units that you and I have has a micro SD slot behind the TOMTOM logo....at the BOTTOM edge (not the top where you plug the cord). So you can pull that plastic piece off and see the slot. By installing a micro SD card you will have more room for updates. Your unit might work better for you then.
I ran across this info a year ago or so. The instructions/manual does not say anything about the micro sd card slot. Maybe some units don't have it but mine does.
Thanx but I did know that as I was forced by TomTom to install a new card as the new updates did not fit on the memory. I forgot about that fiasco. :)
