:
The new TomTom G0 920 range offers the most-up-to-date maps of the United States and Canada and a seamless map of 41 countries in both Western and Central Europe preinstalled on the 4 GB internal memory of the device. This makes the TomTom G0 920 the personal navigation device with the most complete set of pre-installed maps available in TomTom's entire portfolio.The TomTom G0 920 range allows users to receive up-to-date traffic information via the RDS-TMC Traffic Receiver or through TomTom's own subscription-based traffic service.Voice prompted address entry gives users the option to speak the address to which they want to drive. Users can simply speak the city, street name and address number they would like to travel to, and the device will automatically calculate the route.TomTom's new Enhanced Positioning Technology uses movement and gravity sensors to calculate drivers' positions when GPS signals are unavailable. TomTom G0 920 range users will have a much more continuous navigation experience as the Enhanced Positioning Technology ensures the device continues to navigate to its destination, even in circumstances where there may not be a direct line-of-sight connection to a satellite (for example, when driving in a city with tall buildings, underpasses or bridges).The TomTom G0 920 range comes with an improved Bluetooth remote control. The remote control enables drivers to operate the device safely from anywhere in the car without having to reach over to the device.TomTom G0 920 range replaces the current TomTom G0 910/510 and offers the best in navigation and performance.

widescreen view
The 4.3-inch (diagonal) 3D driving view offers a clear picture of the road and maneuvers ahead (actual size).

The first big difference you'll notice is that the 920s are much thinner than the 910. TomTom introduced this slim form factor with last year's 0NE. With the release of the top-of-the-line 920s, TomTom now offers a full range of units in the new form factor (see a feature comparison for all of TomTom's G0 and 0NE devices ($33.99)). When you turn it on, you'll also notice the increased performance and features the 920s packs into their slimmer form.

    Testimonials
    Average Buyer Rating:  out of 5 stars

    Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Excellent product ...
    Product worked very well and delivered more than expected.
    product support also good. Easy to use.



    Buyer's feedback: 3 out of 5 stars - Nice features, but quirky and un-refined. Returned it
    Got it at a good price ($315) so decided to try it out. Although it has some really cool features, overall I was dissapointed. It felt like I was beta testing a GPS unit. Like it just wasn't really ready for prime time yet. And no, it wasn't because I couldn't figure it out. I am an uber-nerd and gadget junkie. I did finally get the bluetooth syncing to work (despite the lack of help from TomTom) where I could access the internet through my blackberry, but it would only synch the gas prices when it was docked, which was pretty useless. The suction cup mount that comes with the unit is worthless. There were a lot of things that just didn't work, or didn't work they way you would expect them to, so in the end, I returned it for a refund. I'm still going to give it 3 stars though, because it's a nice unit, but I don't think it's quite ready yet.



    Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Good choice ...
    Compared to Broadwayphoto.com & CameraAddict.com, Amazon is a little more expensice, but it's fully loaded and no trick. You'll be asked to pay additional $40 by the previous two sites to buy USA maps. They claimed their lower price is for European maps ONLY, which is not true from their web sites. How ridiculous a GPS for sale in US has no US map loaded!
    Therefore, is a honest and good choice for purchasing TomTom GPS!



    Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - great product
    this is a great product. i already had a TOM TOM and had no hasitation in getting this top of the line model...worth the money.



    Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great GPS ...
    GPS works great. Good value for the money and it comes with both the U.S. and European maps which is great for us since we are living in Europe and then moving back to the States in about a year. The only problem we have had is with the suction cup not sticking to the windshield but when we put a little water on it it seems to stick better.

    Joshua Logan's 1967 film of the hit Broadway musical about the love triangle between King Arthur (Richard Harris), Guenevere (Vanessa Redgrave), and Sir Lancelot (Franco Nero) is strong on star emphasis and weak on such fundamentals as story and sets. Except for a handful of solidly dramatic scenes--such as Guenevere grieving, late in the film, for the ruination she and Lancelot have caused--there's not a lot to get excited about. (The story's theme of a lost, great society, however, certainly struck a chord in the 1960s.) The Lerner-Loewe songs ("If Ever I Would Leave You," "Camelot") pretty much sell themselves, even if they are, at best, only proficiently performed in this movie. --Tom Keogh

    "The book was better" has been the complaint of many a reader since the invention of movies. Frank Darabont's second adaptation of a Stephen King prison drama (The Shawshank Redemption was the first) is a very faithful adaptation of King's serial novel. In the middle of the Depression, Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks) runs death row at Cold Mountain Penitentiary. Into this dreary world walks a mammoth prisoner, John Coffey (Michael Duncan) who, very slowly, reveals a special gift that will change the men working and dying (in the electric chair, masterfully and grippingly staged) on the mile . As with King's book, Darabont takes plenty of time to show us Edgecomb's world before delving into John Coffey's mystery. With Darabont's superior storytelling abilities, his touch for perfect casting, and a leisurely 188-minute running time, his movie brings to life nearly every character and scene from the novel. Darabont even improves the novel's two endings, creating a more emotionally satisfying experience. The running time may try patience, but those who want a story, as opposed to quick-fix entertainment, will be rewarded by this finely tailored tale. --Doug Thomas

    On the DVD


    Listen to our interview with Frank Darabont.
    Anyone who has seen this Oscar-nominated film knows Frank Darabont likes to t-a-k-e h-i-s t-i-m-e. He certainly does the same in filling all three hours of his commentary track which he recorded over several sessions. Darabont has studied other DVDs and purposely does not repeat tidbits covered in the excellent new 90-minute documentary on author Stephen King and the making of the film. Other solid segments are two deleted scenes, a never-used teaser trailer, and Michael Duncan Clarke's screen test. The highlight is two remarkable tests of Tom Hanks in old-age makeup. Both are very credible, but it was decided to use another actor. The outcome is a DVD that puts the "special" back into the special edition. --Doug Thomas

    When Roman tribune Marcellus Gallio (Richard Burton) is sent to Jerusalem, one of his assignments is the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Marcellus, a cynical and hardened man, wins the robe Jesus wore to the crucifixion while gambling with other Roman soldiers underneath the dying savior. He later becomes convinced that his hallucinations and violent outbursts are the result of a curse received from the robe, which is now in the possession of his escaped slave, Demetrius (Victor Mature), somewhere in the Middle East. He sets out to find Demetrius in order to destroy the robe and the curse and finds faith instead, converting to Christianity. This was the first movie to be filmed in CinemaScope, and won Oscars in 1953 for costume design, art direction, and set decoration. The visual aspects of the film are stunning, and it may be worth viewing for that alone; however, the script and acting leave much to be desired, and you won't find inspiration in these areas if that's what interests you. If, however, you are more interested in this film for its religious matter, the story of the conversion of the hardened Marcellus is inspiring. --James McGrath
