Does not have adequate memory-Very disappointing
After careful study on the internet, and going to a local store to make some comparisons between buying a TomTom navigator (world wide supposidly the most popular)or a Garmin navigator (considered to be the most popular in the United States}, I chose the TomTom XL 330S. I liked the idea that you could download an updated map if a more recent one was available in the first 30 days after you bought it. I also liked the MapShare feature, which allowed people to make corrections on the maps, and a .... Read more

Excellent GPS
First off, I've owned multiple different Magellan models and they all started to die (battery quits holding charge) in less than one year, after commuting ~1h each way every day for work. I tried a Garmin Nuvi and it worked ok, but the features were less intuitive, even irritating. The Tom Tom XL 330 is awesome. It does everything I need and does it well with a very intuitive interface that remembers previous choices and makes smart suggestions. The main display tells you your speed, the speed l ....

Unit Severely Short On Memory
This GPS unit is out of memory out of the box! I won't dispute any of what was said above, but be aware that all the voice options, all the help, all the frills that come loaded on your XL when you pull it out of the package take up so much memory that you can't update you maps with them on the unit. They must be sacrificed in order to download and install any up-to-date maps. This was a great big deal breaker for me... my unit TomTom XL 330s went straight back to the store. The pity is that Tom .... Read more

Deceptive Wording!
Were you fooled by the title of this product? I was. You see, I thought that when I ordered this product I would also be getting the TRAFFIC RECEIVER that is mentioned in the title.

While this particular device is "traffic ready," it does not include the TRAFFIC RECEIVER needed to be able to access traffic information.

I love the GPS device itself -- great graphics, useful maps, excellent directions, but I am very disappointed in the way in which Amazon has chosen t .... Read more

Major, Embarrassing Oversight by TomTom
Stay away from this junk.

I received a TomTom One XL for Christmas, which is the discontinued model that the XL 330 S replaced. It worked fine, until I tried to use TomTom's current map guarantee, which allows you to download any newer maps that have been released since the device was loaded at the factory. I could not update to the new map because it is 30 or 40 MB larger than the previous map, requiring a few MB more flash memory than is supplied on the device. So I returned th .... Read more
