TomTom Go 930 Traffic review
in GPS / Satnav
1 of 2 
Verdict
The ultimate sat-nav device, but this is not a dramatic enough upgrade over TomTom's previous range and the price is very high.

Tom Tom Go 930 Traffic
Quote "The justification for the high price of the 930 Traffic is that it includes maps of the USA and Russia in addition to the whole of Europe"
The whole of Europe? I thought Greece was part of Europe and have beeen wanting a SatNav with maps of Greece for a long time - so brilliant I thought, except on checking it would appear to be not so. "whole of Euope" at best marketing hype and worst misleading.
