This will cost you an additional $30 so says the TomTom support center when I inquired about the traffic service after I had bought this unit. I think it is a bad marketing policy to overtly advertise the lifetime traffic and maps without telling you that you have to spend an addition $30. As it is, I bought this unit primarily for the traffic module but I can't comment on it's effectiveness as it isn't yet in the marketplace. <br /> <br />Ok, I have the traffic module on the cord, the support person was misinformed.

This one seems to pick up the satalites quicker than the Garmin, however I have noticed some points of interest being incorrect. These can be fixed via the TOM TOM community map updates or manually. The voice is not as nice as the Garmin however this is a personal preference. I have noticed that some addresses it is needed to enter the zip code to find the 'city' location to find a street. The Garmin found streets qicker and with less hassle. Over all the GPS is good. The street view for intersections / exits is nice and comes in handy. I have yet to go to a 'covered market' for the traffic feature to actually work. (Will do so mid next month I might update the review after that experience Heading to Philadelphia, PA).

Yuhas Wed, 02 Jun 2010 22:53:31 +0000 http://www.dswei.com/2010/06/tomtom-xl-335tm-4-3-inch-portable-gps-navigator/#comment-2377 I got my TomTom XL335TM as soon as they were available in April 2010. The traffic update feature is fantastic. On a trip to Philadelphia it warned me of a traffic jam and asked me if I would like to routed around it, I pressed yes and it took me on a road I never knew about saving me time. I was very impressed. You do have to be plugged into your power outlet for the traffic receiver to work, since the receiver is part of the power cord that is shipped with the unit. I also hooked my XL335TM up to my laptop and used the activation key to download the latest map. It takes a while to download and install so leave yourself enough time before you start. This is my second TomTom, I bought an early edition of the One in 2006. If this unit is as rugged and reliable as my last TomTom that I still use on my motorcycle, the lifetime map update will be very handy to have years down the road. I see that a few reviewers here have had difficulty using theirs but I can recommend this unit without reservation. I paid $169 w/free 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime. Good deal on a great GPS!

Otherwise unit is just a basic. The good part is the life time Traffic and Maps. Rating: 3 / 5 TomTom is very slow/poor, as far as updateing the map. Otherwise unit is just a basic.
