There is nothing on TomTom’s website about this simple, yet effective trick. The cardboard cleaning under the bezel did it! I waited to write you back until I had about two months of continuous “zero defects”, i.e., no unwanted screen changes. Before tacking that somewhat complex job, I obtained a thick piece of construction paper (cardboard stiffness) and used the trick someone had suggested on your website of using the corner edge of the cardboard to thoroughly clean under the bezel. Rich: First I want to thank you for the info on how to remove my TomTom 920 bezel so I could clean under it to stop the terrible problem of having rapid-fire and uncontrollable screen changes on my 920.

For one that is, check out my Garmin nuvi 880 review. Voice commands – Too bad it isn’t that great of a feature.Menu – The “Easy Menu” is simplified, but these models offer less customization options and other features than units with the standard interface.

Lifetime maps – Lifetime map updates provided (typically quarterly) at no extra cost.Advanced lane guidance – Provides a visual representation of exits, and displays the number of lanes and proper lane(s) to be in.Bluetooth for hands-free cell phone use – Another nice idea, and I’ve seen signs that TomTom’s sound quality is better than that of other brands.“Lifetime” indicates no subscription fees. Delivered via FM, this service is provided by the Traffic Message Channel, hence you will sometimes see it referred to as FM-TMC. Expect lots of inaccurate reports as well as incidents that aren’t reported. Live traffic – A nice feature that isn’t quite ready for prime time.Speaks street names – Formally known as text-to-speech, this function allows the device to call out the name of the street for upcoming turns, so you’ll hear “approaching right turn, Maple Street” instead of just “approaching right turn.” A very helpful feature.
