Top-Notch User Interface and Software
The GO 720 is operated via an award-winning, intuitive user interface, and is ready to go right out of the box so as soon as you switch it on you can start using it. This navigator comes with the latest and most complete maps of the USA and Canada pre-installed for door-to-door navigation anywhere across the North American continent. Providing easy and quick access to extensive information such as building footprints and live traffic information, the unit includes multiple information options for personalization to your needs. What's more, the 720 is fully future proof, with new maps and free software upgrades available through TomTom's "Home" service so you'll never be out of date.
Simple, Easy Navigation
TomTom's GO 720 uses a 4.3-inch, extra-wide, touch-screen LCD display that features anti-glare technology for easy viewing even in direct sunlight. Realistic and clear visual instructions are provided with high-quality 3D graphics, while spoken instructions tell you where you need to go in your own language. Using the latest technology, the 720 provides you with fast and accurate positioning, with fast route calculation and automatic re-calculation so it's virtually impossible to get turned around. You can even record your own navigation instructions, for either places you know best, or for planning out trips in advance based on the recommendations of others.
The GO 720 is as safe as it is convenient, and comes with a host of safety preferences. This unit helps ensure safe and efficient driving by doubling as a hands-free kit via Bluetooth technology, which is becoming essential as more states pass laws against driving while talking into a handset. With dual microphone support and a built-in high-quality speaker your phone calls are as clear as a bell, and with convenience features such as automatic call pick-up you can truly concentrate on your driving. However, if for some reason your concentration does lapse, this device includes a selectable speeding alert to keep you from accruing expensive tickets.
Extra Features
The GO 720 is full of functionality, such as a tip feature, a customizable status bar, an extensive guided tour, and even a 'Help me!' menu, so it guides you through its usage as much as to your destination. It also features a personalized shortcut menu, 'current location icon' options, and millions of POIs (points of interest) so you can find what you need wherever you are like a lifetime local was riding shotgun. Taking navigation beyond just convenience, the 720 lets you play your music wirelessly over your vehicle's stereo system via its built-in MP3 player and FM transmitter. Now you can enjoy your music on the 720, all while seamlessly providing navigation instructions and still handling your hands-free phone calls. This amazing navigation device even provides you with a document viewer and photo viewer, so you can take your work with you or instantly download and enjoy your holiday photos wherever you go.
TomTom Plus Services
The TomTom GO 720 is compatible with TomTom Plus services that allow you to check the current weather and road conditions on your route, and get up to five-day forecasts for places your visiting. This feature also allows you to take advantage of buddies functionality, TomTom Plus traffic, and the easy download of additional voices. What's more, as a new addition to the TomTom line-up, the 720 comes with TomTom MapShare technology. TomTom Map Share technology not only lets you add to, update, and personalize your maps instantly, but also share them with others so all your family and friends know the latest changes in your area. You can also download others' changes daily as one of many online services.
TomTom's GO 720 comes complete with TomTom Home software, an internal high-quality rechargeable lithium ion battery, and the capability to share content directly between other compatible TomTom GO devices. A Bluetooth remote control is available as a separate accessory. The 720 is also backed by a manufacturer's limited warranty.

Customer Review: Electronics at it's best
Okay I have had the Tom Tom 720 for two days now, so I will say up front that I am still in the process of checking it out and learning to use all the GREAT features this GPS has to offer. First I will start with the great compact design of the unit itself...very sleek. Some of the features that I have tried thus far includes adding music and pictures to the unit (i was even able to use the bluetooth feature to transfer music and pictures from my cell phone to the unit) and using the FM transmitter to play through my car speakers...which is great...the music is automatically muted when the system needs to give you the next direction, and so far it plays very clear eliminating static or other interference...the bluetooth is amazing also..I connected it to my sprint phone and it worked without complicatiion. It both easy to set up and use. Your calls actually come through the unit and enables you to answer the call from there or your phone itself...on the unit the callers information name etc..is displayed as it would be on your phone itself. It has also been pretty easy to download other features via Tom Tom home when connected to your computer.. some of these features include screen savers..additional, voices the unit can use to speak in etc. Now lets get to the GPS.. the system receives a strong signal. At first it was kind of tricky putting in an address, but once I realized the correct format it was no problem at all. You just have to remember that the address is not input the way it appears on documents such as your mail...the structure is a litte different, it is in reverse so to speak. So far the system as guided me without flaw. So overall at this time I absoluely love my Tom Tom 720..It is my first GPS and so far I have not been disappointed!
Customer Review: Good unit - DO NOT DOWNLOAD UPDATE!
Had one of these for over a year, recently "updated" and after the update the screen calibration was off center. Tomtom service is the pits! They said there was nothing they could do. Bought a replacement, worked fine for a few weeks, then after connecting to Tomtom Home, it recommended the update. After this, the speech was "stuttering" and would flip back to the menu right in the middle of manuevers. Amazon were excellent, refunded promptly , and as I still liked the unit, re-ordered. This new one is working fine, and I will not update the software until I read that Tomtom have fixed the problems. So, in summary - Amazon 5 stars, Tomtom 1 star, the unit itself 3 stars.
