    Default Just had my tomtom 720 stolen. What should I get?

    Afternoon guys, just realised that my 720s been taken from the car and wondered what I should be looking to buy as a replacement? I've had the 720 for a couple of years so am a little out of touch. Just don't want to get something that can't be patch etc if I needed to later down the line.

    Any recommendations would be great.

    Cheers,

    Devs

    Sorry to hear about the theft of your Tomtom .
    Depends really on what functions you want, at the moment all the *20 range & newer can be updated with the latest navcore & maps - even the earlier models can be updated with the latest navcore & maps, but may occasionally have a few minor running problems.

    Hey Russ, cheers for the reply mate. I was hoping you would get back

    To be honest I'm not used to any of the newer features and tend to just use them for getting from a 2 b. I'm not on the road everyday for work or anything like that.

    If you we're in the situation Russ what would you go for mate?

    Cheers again,

    Devs.

    You could save some cash and take the dodgy route.... the F&H from Ebuyer is £49.99 delivered, and the install a <cough> version of TomTom.

    If you use it as a hands free device with your phone then get one of the Tomtom Go units, if not then get a Tomtom One or One XL if you prefer the wider screen, make sure it has a large enough internal memory or has a memory card slot.

    Many thanks for all the info chaps, I'm not bothered about all of the live or IQ stuff so I've decided on a Tomtom One XL. Now to track one down for a decent price!

    @ h00ker - yeah wish I got my hands on this little (unt. He would have been hurt

    Brilliant Russ.

    I've just spotted someone local selling a next to new XL classic on flea bay for £75. I might have a punt on that one and get it mapped up.

    One last Q, what size card should I be getting is 4gb still enough or should I get larger?

    Cheers mate,

    dEVS!

    Depends on what maps you want on it, the largest single map is just over 2gb so a 4gb should be ok for you.
