Join the TomTom ClubJust where do you think you’re going?OK, you’ve probably seen TomTom’s model XL 340S out there in your travels across this great land of ours. By which we mean “on your way to the liquor store.” It’s a perfectly handy little satellite navigat-a-mo-bob, and you could do a lot worse.
But friends, this is not the XL 340S. This is the XL 340S LIVE, and if you don’t think that sounds like a very big difference, imagine two cabarets beside the highway: one that advertises “LIVE nude girls” and one that doesn’t specify.
See? It is a very big difference. The difference could scar you for life.
In the case of this TomTom GPS, the difference is its built-in receiver for LIVE Services, a stream of real-time updates including traffic reports, weather forecasts, and local gas prices, to help you get where you’re going the fastest, cheapest, safest way possible, instead of looking like a complete chump when you arrive at your in-laws’ place two hours late, broke from overpaying for fuel, and with hail damage to your windshield, so everybody’s in a foul mood, harmful words are spoken, and before you know it you’re in a court battle to see your kids again. It can happen! Do you really want to put your trust in a GPS system that would break up your family like that?
Of course, in addition to the LIVE Services, this little gizmo boasts all your standard GPS features. It’s got text-to-speech capabilities so it can tell you the names of the streets and the traffic updates you need out loud. It has an extra-wide 4.3-inch touchscreen for easy visibility. And its EasyPort mount folds up to the point where the whole navigation package fits in your pocket, or bag, or glove box, or wherever you want to keep the thing out of thieves’ sight.
Now here’s the one downside: After you become the owner of a TomTom XL 340S Live GPS, any time someone tells you—as people so often do—to “get lost,” you will be utterly incapable of compliance.
So that’s kind of too bad.Warranty: 1 Year TomTom
