All Things Chill

Looking to pull the trigger on the TomTom ONE 3rd edition. Anyone else have a (cheap) recommendation? 2 minutes ago from Twitterrific

Amazon link here. I’ll be paying $249.95 for a simple GPS device that has:

Millions of points of interest
TomTom MapShare instant map updates
Pocket-sized design; 3.5-inch touchscreen with 2D and 3D views
Turn-by-turn spoken directions

After deciding not to get the iPod Touch (between Liana and I, we have 4), I’m totally fiending for something with a touch screen. That, and I don’t want to be lost in Seattle ever again. Hee hee.

After doing some research, I learned that the 3rd revision of the gps device also has a “map share” function that was currently only on their more advanced models (via Crave @ Cnet). The You Tube video posted above gives a great explanation of how that works. Even though driving around Seattle wasn’t such a huge headache the second time we were there, I’m sure having a gadget like this would save us some headaches in the future.

Like I said before, I’ll be pulling the trigger on the sale later this afternoon. I need to dig around the Internets for a while and make sure I’m getting the best bang for the buck. Do you have a recommendation? I’ll be able to blog faster in Seattle if I don’t get lost in Portland! LOL.

GPS. YES!
