Strengths: PalmOne boots up fast on cold start and hard start, maps are very accurate, at least 8 satellite positions found consistently. Mounting bracket is solid mount and very well made.
Weaknesses: When charging battery to PDA in car, I would suggest having a right angeled charging fitting instead of straight in, more convient to attach.
Summary: I am very impressed with this product. I have been using it for 7 days now and feel like I have owned it for years. Very well made, durable and the mounting bracket stays put on the windshield. Bluetooh is awesome... no more wires all over the dashboard. I am impressed with the ability to get 8 to 10 satellite positions on start up. The mapping may needs to be updated, but I live in a area that is growing every day, so new roads may not be listed. Get this product now.........

Strengths: accurate, voice turn-by-turn instruction, recalculation the route if you make a wrong turn.
Weaknesses: SD card not included, an updated program on the website is needed for T3 user, TomTom software provided in the package looks like an open-boxed item.
Summary: I got this for 2 days. When I opened it, I found the software would be an open-boxed item because its sealed tags were broken. The installation procedure was a torture and cost me almost 4 hrs because the original software does not support T3. After installing a patch file on TomTom website, I would consider this as a great product.

Strengths: Very accurate. Easy to use and very reliable. The charge cable included is great and powers both the GPS and the Treo.
Weaknesses: Software had a bug that affected installation. Customer service resolved it quickly although I had to wait for a callback. Since screen size is limited by the Treo, it is not huge.
Summary: It isn't as good (screen size) as a system that comes installed on a new car, but it is portable and since I use it most when I am travelling and renting a car it is a big advantage. The voice prompts are excellent and I rely mostly on them rather than the screen display.
