i posted this as a reply in another thread, but thought it would be useful to have its own:
the windscreen mount on the new *10 range of tomtom's is sh*t.
it bounces around so much that the device looses connection and restarts on its own accord.
i contacted tomtom today and they are reproducing the mounts, which is why you wont find any stock anywhere. If you have one of the defective mounts then tomtom will swap it over FOC with a new mount.
If you wait another few weeks then the new stocks will be available to buy in the shops with the modified mount.
You will also need to upgrade the firmware on your tomtom, as the software on it when you buy it will take an age to lock onto the satellites. The new firmware takes about 30 seconds.
hope that helps. We've had all of the devices we've sold at work returned for the above reason. TomTom are aware and have reproduced the mount
