^^^^^^^^^^^£330 for the 500 would also be a very good investment as this has got handsfree bluetooth, comes with speed camera locations too!!me (halfords) are probly selling them for alot more as the saying goes halfrauds!!but we price match!!
Id still go with the one because of the better processer enabling it to work in any car!!no matter what screen you got!!

yep they are the dogs b****cks 
used the free trial of TT traffic over xmas and was brilliant, took me round a 15 mile accident on the M6...absolutely no probs with the signal either...think they are all around 249-259 now but were 220 just before xmas
buy one you wont regret it :approve:

Thing is, sat nav is one of the things I really want. I know if I buy sat nav I won't use it all the time due to covering 7miles a day to and from work. But I know it will come in very useful when your lost somewhere etc...
Fubar - would you still go for the 500 over the One in my position? also is the 500 going to be replaced soon?
cheers

The 500 isnt due to be replaced in the near future as far as i know. i spent a while deciding... and the 500 won for me.
Things you get with the 500 that you dont get with the One:
400Mhz processor
Assisted GPS
Hands Free Bluetooth (can trasfer phonebook to Go, very useful!)
Major Roads of Europe
Mains AC charger
Ability to change the colour of the front panel (VERY important!)

I have a TomTom One.
FAB piece of kit.
Identical in features to the TomTomGo300 - only Slimmer .... and ....
....much better reception thanks to a new chipset!!!
I was driving along the M5/M42 today... with 11 satellites locked-on : this is with a heat-reflective screen, and NO external antenna.

500 and 700 have 400Mhz processors and use Assisted GPS.
I got the 500... value for money it shines through
Tom Tom One has 380 MHz CPU.
Price has gone up since Christmas, but if you buy from P. C. World you get a free case.

you have to active the traffic trial (its really good),pretty straight forward as long as you have a bluetooth phone..tells you what to do in the black bootlet that came with it
