I had to buy a car type which is very hard to use outdoors. Amazon would not refund me the shipping costs.

The problem we had with this unit, was thee was no mounting hardware that came with it, we contacted the vendor who was more than helpful, and would refund our money. So we sent it back and waiting for the refund. Rating: 3 / 5 I bought this item for my son’s Xmas present, And the unit worked fine, I also have a TOM TOM GPS for my motorhome and it is exellent.

I have had this happen on 2 units. Since batteries are nearly irreplaceable and limit you to a 4 hour trip, this is a problem. Some web sites say adding solder to the back of your unit may solve the problem, but others don't see it as permanent. This makes it hardly worth the price. I hope TomTom has a solution.

I assume the US version will follow soon. <br /> <br /> Rating: 3 / 5 Just letting you know that release 2 of tomtom rider is already available in Europe and Australia and features the Cardo scala-rider wireless Bluetooth headset.

I have two friends with exactly the same problem and I returns mine two times because I really like the idea. And for finish the real price from these is 699 dollars no 1199 like they said and y paid 399 dollars on sale.
