ONE Size Fits All Uses |
|
| In today's world, people are constantly on the move. With this increasing mobility, we rely more and more on personal navigation devices, like the TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION, as a principal tool to get us from point to point. Getting your location or directions to your destination has never been simpler or more stress-free. Global Positioning System (GPS) technology is what's making this possible. GPS is already factory-installed on many vehicle models and is now being incorporated into devices as small mobile phones and watches. As an information resource, GPS signals are available free, worldwide, courtesy of the U.S. government. Using illuminated maps and voice-guidance systems, GPS navigation devices are an intrinsic part of the transition to paperless navigation. As easy to operate as a cell phone, the TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION provides real-time locations and directions, anywhere you happen to be. It's capable of giving you clear spoken instructions on where to go, in 36 different languages. Primarily designed for use in your vehicle, this tiny unit is completely portable. Switch it from the car to the truck to the motorhome with no setup, or carry it along on walks. Its roughly 4" x 4", six and a half ounce size make it easy to carry around. You can take the TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION everywhere; and, unlike many of us, it never gets lost. |

Point A To Point B. Literally. |
|
| A GPS unit that just tells how to get from city A to city B doesn't do you a whole lot of good. Where do you go once you get to that city? What if you want directions to somewhere around town? That's why TomTom added door-to-door GPS on the ONE 3RD EDITION. This allows you to get precise directions to any exact address in the U.S. or Canada. And, the best part is, it's future-proof! Just connect your ONE 3RD EDITION to your PC, and through TomTom Home, you can get updated information anytime, including information about detours and other delays. It gives a whole new meaning to "Point A to Point B". |

Better Than Paper |
|
| The TomTom One can do a lot more for you than a paper map ever could. You can enter a specific street address, an intersection, a city center, or a point of interest. Once you've entered an address, the ONE 3RD EDITION will ask you if you need to arrive at a particular time, and if you answer "yes," you can enter an arrival time and the system will calculate if you will arrive on time based on your current location. The ONE 3RD EDITION has the ability calculate directions by fastest route or shortest route. It can even find a route based on what you want to avoid, such as freeways or toll booths. There's a Find Alternative function if you don't like the current route. The vivid 2-D and 3-D navigation views allow a better understanding of your current position and any upcoming actions or points of interest. For night driving, there are low-glare display settings with color schemes designed for viewing after your eyes have adjusted to the dark. Does your old fold-out navigation system do that? |

Interested? |
|
| The very latest maps of the U.S. from TomTom and Major Road Network of America are included with the TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION. These maps give you comprehensive coverage of the country; but despite having more information than ever, they don't take up more memory because of the most recent memory-saving technology. If you're in an unfamilar location but need to find a gas station, restaurant, parking facility, store, amusement attraction, or the airport, TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION will show you the way. Just touch the appropriate icon and choose from thousands of points of interest in more than 50 categories. Can't find what you're looking for? You can download millions of points of interest directly from the TomTom website. |

Get Your Map Fix |
|
| If you can't get enough maps (or you just need a different one), the TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION has everything you need to feed you craving. Using your personal computer, you can choose additional detailed street maps for the U.S. and Canada to download to your TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION. These additional maps are stored on CD and are installed using a USB cable. Both the map CDs and the cable are included with your purchase. Your PC must have Internet access, run Windows 98 through XP operating systems, and have a CD-ROM and USB port. TomTom ONE 3RD EDITION's built-in Bluetooth receiver means you can download real-time TomTom PLUS services (sold separately) through the internet connection on your Bluetooth phone anytime and anywhere. TomTom PLUS gives you the real-time information you want on traffic congestions, weather conditions and extra downloads such as detailed city maps, additional voices, points of interest and much more. Just be glad there's no Mapaholics Anonymous classes yet. |

"Help Me!" |
|
| TomTom knows that things don't always go as planned, so, in typical Boy Scout fashion, they wanted to be prepared. That's why, on their new ONE 3RD EDITION, they included a "Help Me" menu. This menu is for use in an emergency, and consists of a touchscreen 6 options. Choose from getting local emergency phone numbers, directions on how to go to help, either walking or driving, find your location, bring up a first-aid guide, or bring up other guides on-screen. So, next time life catches you "unaware", you'll be ready. |
|
Sharing For The Greater Good |
|
| One new feature on the ONE 3RD EDITION is the Map Sharing Feature. Let's say you're driving along, getting directions to wherever it is you're going, and you come up to a road block. You can automatically correct your map as you drive (of course safely pulling off the road), and avoid that route won't be included on future trips. But, it gets better. Bring your GPS unit home, connect it to your PC and access TomTom home. Now, you can send the information about the road block to TomTom, and they'll process it with other detour information sent to them, and update those with enough verification. Then, you can download all route updates near and far directly to you unit. Pretty neat, huh? |
