TomTom Go Live 1000. It's so good, it will make you nervous to be around. The fluid touch screen is a bare thigh in your vehicle. Touch it. Pinch it to zoom in or scissor your finger & thumb to zoom out (iPhone style). Her voice is up to true TomTom standard - ascertive but with that successful business tone, which we all find kind of sexy. She's not a fidget like previous models, no, she sits comfortably in the new easy-click-mount. Her most intimidating trait though, has to be the brain. Not only does she calculate ever changing infastructure but also traffic, navigating you through the most complicated of roads, right down to the very lane. Whereas other sat navs just utter the lane and expect you to fill in the blanks, Mrs TomTom 1000 provides a detailed 3D image, with a clear arrow indicator. It's all in the name of guiding you from that awkward motorway junction, through to the correct exit. No scares, no horns, no unexpected traffic or roadblocks, no multiple laps around the roundabout - just you, her and your route (ahem).
Top 3 improvements:- 'Bear right' can no longer be misinterpreted for 'Stay in the left lane, there's a grizzly on the right.' The lane indicator is spot on.

- The click-mount has a hole on the underside, allowing the charger to plug in easily. No disorientated wire, hanging from your dash and dangling about your gearstick - obstructing that ash tray we all use for sweeties.
- Point of interest menu makes those 118 guys look like pathetic, skinny, losers...wait a minute...they are pathetic, skinny, losers. The menu is packed with everywhere you could be interested in, accompanied with phone numbers and opening times.
