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future proof, with new maps and free software upgrades available through TomTom's "Home" service so you'll never be out of date.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. As an added convenience, text-to-speech functionality provides you with actual street names, while the easy-to-operate, voice-prompted address input is not only faster and simpler, but allows for easy location search and selection and plug and GO capability. 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.

HUGE FLAW!:

there is one HUGE problem.... When putting in the navigation info, you had best know the city... I often know a street address in the suburb of a major city but not the town name.. gee whiz, the people that live in those suburbs themselves don't know the obscure town name.... but the 720 won't let you get past the city query to put in the street address until you say what the city it... well... I know it is baltimore...but who knows if it is owings mills, glyndon, lutherville or cockysville.
this is a... more info

Tom Tom is Great Great:

Managing an office staff with a fleet vehicles, everyone in my group has a GPS. We originally purchased the Garmin IQue 3600, buat it was time for an upgrade. We purchased a Garmin Nuvi and a Tom Tom Go 720 for comparison purposes since they were both the same price. The Tom Tom Go 720 was our favorite for many reasons. First, the Tom Tom is more of a traveller's unit. The features fit what we needed to do the most. Second, the Tom Tom has an online update feature. The Tom Tom can remember personal changes... more info

No more SPEEDING TICKETS!!:

When I updated my TomTom, it also had a new feature that does away with speeding tickets! How you ask? Well, those three dings just happens to warn you that you are exceeding the posted speed limit! Sometimes my high heels turn into leaded feet so this enhancement has saved me enough money to keep me in Manolo Blatnik's...

Highly disappointing -- consistently weird routing:

The TomTom 720 a beautiful machine with a lot of cool features. But the routing is dreadful so often that we have to bring maps along -- which kind of defeats the purpose of a GPS.
Our older, cheaper, slower, not-very-beautiful Garmin is MUCH more reliable.
We live in Eastern Pa. and do most of our driving here. The road network is very old and established so it is not a matter of out of date maps. It's just the TomTom's routing algorithm. If we're not paying attention, the TomTom will take us 20... more info
