Very disappointing.

I gave up on dedicated devices about 2 years ago and this new one has nothing to entice me back. I use the iPhone TomTom App which is faster, better screen, does everything I ne ...

The current TomTom product range for cars feels quite old. I don't recall any new models and I've had my 620 for a year or so.

Has anyone seen any announcements about new models?

"Quad-core A7@1.3GHz, 512MB LPDDR3 @519MHz so have nearly double the processing power of the previous devices."

Had a very close look at the 620 and I'm really struggling to see why I'd upgrade from the 610.

Wifi - interesting but connecting periodically to my PC and updating maps and firmware isn't a proble ...

Having used the 600 for over a year I recently bought the iPhone App. Here’re my thoughts on a relative comparison and general review.

The most recent devices have had a few software updates recently and I've been using my 600 for a few months now.

I had similar problem and found connecting directly to a USB port (not a hub) was the solution. (Assuming you have the MyTomTom software installed).

Sorry for being dozy, but how do you know when a new map is released?
