Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
With the TomTom Navigator 5 System with Maps of the US and Canada for Compatible PDAs with Bluetooth you never need to be lost again, wherever you are, whatever you are doing. TomTom's Navigator 5 software is designed for people who already own a PDA with Bluetooth functionality, but without a built-in NMEA 0183 GPS receiver. This package provides a Bluetooth GPS receiver and all the Navigator 5 software with maps of the complete US and Canada, which once installed on your PDA will let you know not only where you are going, but exactly how best to get there.
The TomTom Navigator 5 software is not only effortless to install, but easy to use with a touch-screen user menu that gives you an intuitive navigation experience, and an inherent portability that lets you take it with you anywhere, whether in your car, on your bike, or on foot. This software gives you the convenience of millions of pre-installed POIs (points of interest) from restaurants to gas stations, allowing you to search by proximity to your current location, along your route, near a specific city and more, even including the ability to set automatic alerts as you approach, as well as letting you plan your route to fit your requirements.
Navigator 5 not only guides you from door to door, but can navigate directly to contacts from your PDA address book, complete with stopovers and itinerary planning for routing to multiple destinations while adding stopping points. The user-friendly interface features a tip system for when you are just getting started, an optional compass display, and the ability to show a route demonstration so you can better know what things are going to look like in advance.
TomTom's Navigator 5 system provides you with crystal clear 3D graphics, and allows you to improve the readability by customizing the dynamic status bar. Suitable for almost anybody, this navigation system will also guide you from door-to-door with easy spoken directions that come in 30 different languages that include with the European languages such options as Chinese, Thai, Japanese and more, as well as providing 18 different languages for its user interface.
Full of smart extras and additional options, the TomTom Navigator 5 system supports a wide range of TomTom Plus services and downloads. TomTom Plus lets you receive real-time, up-to-the-minute traffic information, with jam alerts and road condition warnings, as well as use instant messaging and more to keep in touch with a selected group of people, including tracking their location. TomTom Plus is an optional, cost-based service that can be accessed through Navigator 5 at any time.
The Navigator 5 system encourages you to get from A to B as quickly and easily as possible, and comes with the smallest and lightest wireless GPS receiver possible, so it easily fits in your pocket or bag. The TomTom Navigator 5 software and GPS receiver is compatible with most popular brands and models of PDAs, including; PalmOne, Sony, Acer, Airis, Dell, Fujitsu Siemens, HP, Imate, O2, Qtek, and T-Mobile.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Product - Great Customer Service,

This review is from: TomTom Navigator 5 System with Maps of the US and Canada for Compatible PDAs (Electronics)
Not only does the GPS mapping work well, it is designed for ease of use and, in some instances, better than GPS units I've seen installed in other cars for many times the price!
Getting up and running was somewhat frustrating as the product code needed to activate the item was not included in the box. In fact the documentation provided is somewhat wanting but sufficient. However I emailed TomTom's customer support from their website and they got me going in no time. Since then, I've had four other requests/issues that they solved very quickly through their online support. Now that that is all behind me, I couldn't be happier with the product or the way it works. The map appears to be about 1-2 years old (didn't have a local golf course that opened recently nor a recently rerouted road), but they promise to have updated maps soon. Be warned--no mounting device comes with the packaging. You have to buy this separately.

I have tried several in car navigation systems and this seems just good. Great for frequent travler as all I need to bring is the small bluetooth GPS unit.

It's probably a great product...if I could only activate it!,

This review is from: TomTom Navigator 5 System with Maps of the US and Canada for Compatible PDAs (Electronics)
I received my shrink-wrapped, brand-spanking new TomTom Bluetooth package from Amazon and was really looking forward to using it. Before being able to use the software on your Pocket PC, however, you have to activate it using the product code in the package. This is done on-line. Unfortunately, when I entered my product code, thier web site informed me that my supposedly brand new software package had already been activated and assigned to two different Pocket PCs!
So I'm left with a totally useless $270 stack of CDs. I e-mailed thier tech support, which told me they would respond in a few days. It was then, after Googling for info, I began to realize that thier tech support is apparently second to none in terms of poor quality and sluggish responsiveness. I'm already beginning to regret this purchase 12 hours after receiving it. I am willing to bet they had a problem with thier packaging procedures and put the same product code in multiple boxes. Apparently two other people got my product code, as evidenced by the other activation codes. I would give them only 1 star instead of 2, but I have heard such good things about thier software...once it's installed. I am hoping they respond within a decent time frame, otherwise it's off the RMA page. ...................................... UPDATE: 3 days later after getting no response, I called TomTom at the number listed on thier site. Got an operator who said they would respond within 24 hours. 2 hours later I received an e-mail asking me to PROVE I really bought the product, so I had to fax my receipt, a copy of the product card, and a copy of the 1st CD to them. An hour later I received a new product code via e-mail that worked the first time. Bottom, line - 5 hours after I called them I was back in business. If you can get past the activation and tech support hurdles, it's a great product.
