Spec me a TomTom

I was looking at getting the TomTom XL Classic V2 (UK, ROI, Europe) which is ~£120

Anyone got this, like/dislike?
Other recommendations around the same price (TomTom only please)?
Am I correct in thinking that even though this doesn't take a memory card you can update/get new maps (US for example) via TomTom home?

Thanks

Probably get a better opinion in the motors forum.

yep, you can get downloads off the website.

One poo one it's added to mine is that I now can't type stuff in and almost crash while moving.

You shouldnt be touching it at all when driving. Especially not the satnav!

I've the TomTom 1 XL IQ routes. Its a bit slow sometimes in satellite acquisition compared with my old setup on a PDA but generally I find it very effective.
