The TomTom GO 300 features all the great navigation of the award-winning TomTom GO at an accessible price. It offers the latest street-level map of your country that includes details for each town and city.

TomTom PLUS is a bundle of services that provide real time information on traffic congestions, weather conditions and extra downloads such as detailed city maps, additional voices, points of interest and much more.

TomTom GO's unique touch screen activation means there is no hassle with multiple buttons or extra hardware when calculating your route. The touch screen is completely intuitive and your route can be planned with just a few taps on the screen. At the end of the journey, simply turn TomTom GO off with the click of one button then pop it in your bag. There has never been a faster or easier way to navigate your way to where you have to, or want to go.

TomTom GO 300 features a 3.5 transflective display screen that gives clear visibility in any situation from direct sunlight to low light conditions. It also features TomTom's unique 3D and top down view that makes the navigation experience more true to life and interactive than many built-in car GPS systems. The enhanced, CD-quality speaker volume provides crystal clear sound that allows you to hear the voice instructions above the noise of the engine. The compact, stylish and unobtrusive TomTom GO 300 provides up to 5 hours of constant navigation, powered by its Lithium-ion battery.

Just gave the TomTom GO 300 to my wife who is extremely directionally challanged. She is also a technophobe so I wasn't sure what her reaction would be. But she was extermely delighted with this new gift. We took it out for a "test ride" this weekend and it worked beautifully. I guess she would have liked the new GO 910 because it actually says the name of the street to turn on to while ours just says turn (left, right, etc.) in XXX amount of yards and then at about 30-40 yrds it says turn (left, right etc) but dosen't actually say the name of the street, but if you glace over at the screen (which was very easy to see, although it was on a rainy day) it dispalys the name of the street to turn onto. I particullay like the fact that it will automatically recalculate your route based on where you are to where you are trying to get to with out any indication from you. I purposely tried to get lost but the system would just recalculate the directions (in a matter of seconds) and display new directions. At one point it even said "When conditions permit, please turn around" which my wife particullry liked because it won't "Freak her out" when she is driving and gets lost. She also likes the "Navigate to home" option that she just has to tap and the system calculates her directions back to our house from where ever we are. Over all I am very impressed with this system. Now if it allows my wife to get to (and from) all of our sons soccer games (when I am unable to attend) she will be truely delighted and I will be even more impressed (if possible) and less stressed thinking she is lost somewhere unable to figure out how to get home.
