COORDINATES

First of all: Buying Refurbished rules. You get a like-new product that has already been tested so there is no new-product-surprises; You can be sure it is working perfectly. AND is cheaper.
The Amazon shipping was superb. I purchased it on July 22nd. Was estimated for August 4th - 8th; Arrived July 25th.

TOMTOTM ONE 3RD edition HIGHLIGHTS:

-Everything you need is on the box.
-WILL GIVE YOU YOUR COORDINATES VERY easily and you can even configure the units.
-HAS WALKING MODE (I love to walk, and the GPS will take in account that I don't need to follow car's restrictions.)
-Will charge from the USB port. (Very important if you walk)
-MULTI LANGUAGE
-TOMTOM HOME is a very good computer application that lets you update backup and even operate the GPS from the PC. You can even browse the contents of the GPS memory.

Coordinates people, COORDINATES!
Most people don't care about this. But they usually wont dislike having the information available just in case. Some GPS units won't give you your coordinates, and if you are a Map fan like me, or you live in a country where the maps are not good or not even available, you would probably REALLY appreciate to just know your coordinates, is really all you need!

Even more: If you are a Private pilot, or undergoing training to obtain your license, you off course know that an airplane GPS is REALLY expensive.
Since this beauty will give you your coordinates, you can use it to check where are you flying if you get lost, and all you need is your Sectional.

Coming back to all the people that does not walk or fly (or do biking, because this baby has a bicycle mode also):

It does EVERYTHING you need in a Automobile's GPS: As most GPS units has points of interest, let you store favorite locations, has configurable color schemes (including night colors), you can switch the display between 3D and 2D.
As not all GPS units, it will let you CORRECT something in the map that could be mistaken. The TOMTOM HOME, and web site support the "MapShare" system that will update your maps according to corrections other people had been doing. Is a community sharing thing so is free :)

You can select among many voices (you can download and there are plenty that are downloadable at no cost) and there are voices in many languages. And likewise you can download icons sounds and a lot of updates.
You can even upload text files to your Tomtom... In case you want to read something... Is like a PDA.

I said the box has everything you need. Well maybe something is missing: The TOMTOM home application is not in the box, because there is no CD in the package. But you can download it from the website (as well as the complete manual).

The unit itself could be plugged to a traffic wireless system (that can be your cellphone if you have the service). Has the on/off button, a reset button and the USB cable connection.

No memory flash slot for this one so no memory expansion.
Total memory is about 1GB and is pretty much full. Around 100 MB are free, which is more than enough for voices, maps updates an other stuff.

If you need to have more than one major map file. You can store them in your PC and upload the one you need to your Tomtom ONE without loosing anything.

This is a very good product; although I cannot speak about durability for myself (I just received it today). Right now I cannot think of something else that I would like it to do, and for the price I don't really want it to do anything more.

Difference between new and refurbished

I'm sure you've read the other reviews about the product so I'll only add a few things here.

The only difference I found between the new and refurbished product was the map. The refurbished product came was last year's map, a bit outdated. And the code for the 30 day free update had expired.
However, after a few minutes with tech support, I was able to get the free update.
This involved scanning my Amazon receipt and e-mailing directly while on the phone. The support people were very helpful and easy to understand.

Outside of that, one point I wanted to make clear about the Tom Tom One 3rd edition is the multiple waypoints. The 3rd Edition has the ability to enter 48 "favorite" destinations. The similar Tom Tom 130 only has 1 or 2. This is helpful when doing service calls or deliveries. Although it doesn't auto route for you. You'll need to manually input the next destination and manually delete each when you no longer need them.

I've used mine everyday at work since it arrived and it's worked nearly perfectly, bringing me right to the front door 98% of the time.

Great value, gets the job done.

I bought this for a road trip into Canada where we were loaned a car that didn't already have a navigation system and found it very portable, easy to use, and got the job done. The price was give away with a rebate to boot, and although it was listed as refurbished, there was no sign that it wasn't brand new. Now we will also have something to use in my wife's car that doesn't have a built in navigation. It was fun to customize the GPS as well with a vehicle that looked like our car in place of the arrow that shows our location on the map and custom voices (we used an Australian accented one). Plugging it into your computer keeps it updated with the latest maps, as well-- as opposed to my car with a built in DVD-based navigation that would require me to spend $200 each year for new software. I can't speak for its longevity, but even if it lasted only a year - it was well worth it for the price.
