Interesting that they are using Navteq maps for this new ONE. Is there anything else to that?, i.e. the beginning of a move away from TeleAtlas, or is it simply as the article states, TomTom don't want to find themselves becoming too reliant on one supplier? What are the pros and cons of each map supplier?

About the last thing I want in a new PND is a slower CPU (dropping from 380 Mhz to 266 Mhz). Clearly not an improvement but rather a cost cutting strategy to bring down TTs entry level price point and make it more competitive in the market.

Probably more an issue of heat/power consumption. The difference in cost between a 380 and 266 CPU is probably not measurable in a large bulk order.

so if it's a matter of power/heat generation... why does the battery only last 2 hours? since the cpu is slower it should also drain less battery... right?

Following from leerichards's comment above, see here:

http://www.teleatlas.com/Pub/Press/Press_r...ses/TA_CT011624

Starts off being all self-congratulatory about things, then eventually points out that TomTom have chosen Navteq.

A slower processor, no headphones plug in (I use them when riding my motorcycle; I prefer the ONE to the RIDER, because my cradle is better, I can listen to the instructions through the loudspeaker when driving my car, etc.).

Humm....

No thanks

PS - Why did they drop the price? One word: "competition"; this market now is really boiling...

I still love my TT1 ( original ) .. it's fast .. fab .. does what it says on the tin ...
I have a ipod and a N73 phone with 2GB's fpr MP3 etc....
I want a sat nav to tell me where to go .. which the TT1 does fine....
as yet I have know wishes to upgade or in this case side grade...

faster cpu would of been better !!
And some more Flash mem.... 2 or 4 GB would be good....

Defintiely a nice looking bit of kit, although I agree the slower processor seems to be a slightly backward step. My current ONE can be a little bit sluggish at times on road sections that are particularly heavy with junctions/exits etc., so I don't thnk I'd be very happy with a machine with less power than the one I've got. It does look smart though. blum.gif

I thought that one of the attractions of the TT One, being small, lightweight, and offering better GPS reception around buildings, was that it could be used whilst walking around cities.

The original TT One had an earphone socket persumably enabling you to keep the unit in your pocket/bag once the route had been set. But with the new unit you would be forced to carry it around and listen to the verbal instructions through the speaker.

I clear invitation to any muggers to come and get you! IMHO the removal of the earphone socket if a significant retrograde step.

Or TomTom may have removed the earphone socket to encourage bikers to buy the more expensive Rider ? sad.gif
