Re: TomTom 7 vs Garmin XT....which is better and why???
Well, I only have Garmin XT Mobile on my Touch Diamond because... (I dont quite understand who would buy both, Its an extra $150 for TomTom) anyways I find Garmin very fast, efficient and clean. In NYC it locks on to about 11-12 sats in a few seconds, routes take a bit longer tho but are still pretty fast. POIs are nicely done aswell. I also love the fact that i can put only the maps I need on my phone. But I also have a question, is Garmin better for the money as it costs $50 less than TomTom. Also I find the lack of tts on Garmin fairly annoying, does it really help with compatibility to remove this??
Also iGo 8 only has support for European maps right? so it wouldnt be too useful for US buyers.
(a little side note, I am getting 1.2 Mbps on my Sprint EV-DO rev. A data plan, where ever I go. Considering EVDO rev. A should be faster, is this a cap employed by sprint cause I have never gotten speeds like 2-3 Mbps on my phone.)
