Excellent routing, but some issues
Pros
Intelligent routing system and very good ETA calculations.
Cons
Hardware issues and badly designed menus.
The Bottom Line:
Not a bad GPS, but don't expect too much in terms of user friendlyness.
I have owned a number of GPSs over the yearsm, some better some worse. This TomTom GO 930 is great in many ways, but a problem in others. On the up side, I find the routing is much better than on some of the beastly models out there. The IQ routes seem to work well - no more stupid directions with the TomTom GO 930! And the start-up is one of the fastest I've seen. Traffic on the 930 is great, at least where I was. Much better than the previous Nafobon I owned. And the estimated time of arrival is right on. On to the down side - I have had some hardware issues, which on the whole have been quite annoying. The volume went poof, unit wouldn't get past red X which indicated hardware issues (had to reformat drive). And the menu system is too cumbersome. They need a back arrow when navigating the menus. If you miss the one you want you have to start all over to get to that screen. POIs are not where they are suppose to be. And many are missing. That being said, I still think the routing of the TomTom is excellent, and that is after all what you want a GPS for.
