An interesting, comparatively low-cost,
double DIN, in-dash GPS system.
Pros:
* Lower cost than most alternatives
* Detachable, portable,
TomTomOne unit
*
Bluetooth is built-in
* CD player plays
MP3 encoded audio files
Cons:
* Bluetooth and
USB reader requires
TomTom unit to be attached
* TomTom unit has trouble routing to GPS coordinates (as opposed to street addresses) more than a mile away
* Optical drive is unreliable. There are several reports of the unit failing to read or eject CDs.
* Reading from the USB port is also inconsistent.
* Inconsistent audio controls between optical drive and TomTom controlled audio (e.g. Bluetooth, GPS, MP3-on-USB player)
