There does appear to be a headphones socket, which through an amplifier, could be connected to speakers.

Audio out socket? Could this be used to provide an input to the vehicle audio system? My car (New Vectra) has a clever gizmo that will take the output from a mobile phone - or in its predecessor, the output from Trafficmaster. It mutes the radio so that one can use the phone hands free. Haven't got it all hooked up because I couldn't afford (well didn't want to pay for!) the docking station for my phone. But, the wiring is all there, so the question is - could one use the phone connection to accept the input from the TTG? If so, this should overcome the audio quality problem.

With the 300 down to £299 now, can we expect the ONE to enter around £250?

Any more news on availability?

Si.

Well it (the ONE) has a 2hr battery, smaller speaker albeit loud enough IMHO and a non docking cradle i.e. no power/data connections, power is connected direct to the unit and no ASN although I have never seen any benefit from having it!

I suspect the economies are ones of scale, when the GO launched it was unique and unknown, the components are all very much cheaper now and TomTom's buying power means they can reduce costs quite considerably. If anyhting I suspect this could have still been sold at a profit for a lot less than £260. Certainly £199.

The only limitation that I might baulk at is the 2hr battery. You wouldn't be able to use away from vehicle for very long. Presumably it doesn't have a mains charger either.
