Map Share provides community-based map and POI updates. Cons TomTom PLUS weather and traffic services don't work with Sprint or Verizon handsets. Speech recognition limited to address input. Bottom Line The TomTom GO 920 is a much better value than the company's previous model, the highly rated GO 720—particularly if you plan on traveling to Europe. If you have a supported phone with a data plan on AT&T or T-Mobile, it's even better. When we reviewed the TomTom GO 720 back in September, the bigger and better GO 920 had been announced but wasn't yet available. Now that it's finally arrived, and after taking it for plenty of spins around the block, I can say it's a much better value than the already pretty terrific 720. At a suggested retail price of $549.95, the GO 920 comes very well equipped with a host of luxury features, including maps of Europe, a wireless Bluetooth remote, voice recognition for inputting addresses, text-to-speech conversion, multisegment routing, TomTom's excellent community-based map updates, and a lot more. On looks alone, the GO 920 is identical to its predecessor, measuring 3.3 by 4.7 by 0.9 inches (HWD), weighing 7.8 ounces, and featuring the same 4.3-inchWQVGA 480-by-272-pixel screen. A rounded rear profile makes the box slightly thicker than the thinnest devices on the market (the Magellan Maestro 4250, and HP iPAQ 310; both 0.7 inch thick), yet it still fits neatly into a shirt pocket. As TomTom's flagship model, the GO 920 includes all the features of the GO 720 and adds in a number of new ones, too. You still get access to TomTom's innovative Map Share, which lets you download map updates supplied by the company and its community of users, so maps and POI information are continually updated. According to TomTom, the number of users who've joined Map Share since its launch in July 2007 now exceeds 500,000 worldwide. In January 2008, more than 150,000 map and POI changes were submitted for North America.
