I have a Tom Tom One, Third Edition. I have yet to loose signal. Today, I was driving home, and was going under a major expressway cluster fu&k, expecting to loose signal due to no clear sky, and suprisingly, my signal did decrease by around 50% however, still kept me on course and never completly lost signal.
i never lose it on expressway either, its just when im in the middle of the city]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22413238 Tue, 19 May 2009 18:31:36 EDT Re: GPS for city-usage http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22404653 Anonuser : I have a Tom Tom One, Third Edition.

any newer garmin should have the newer chipset which should be able to get a signal better........however the 'nuvi' line is kind of 'dumbed down'

might help if you let us know what exactly you want from your gps, and i may be able to offer you some suggestions]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22401924 Sun, 17 May 2009 12:45:25 EDT Re: GPS for city-usage http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22401171 Harddrive : you are gonna have a better signal if you get a GPS that has the ability to have an external antenna plugged in. my tomtom has that option but i have yet to have the need for an external antenna where i live.
here's an amazon link to the TomTom External Antenna for GO 510 and 910 and ONE Navigators.

im looking for a new one that will work well in the city especially when im driving in the middle of highrise buildings, any recommendations ? i personally like garmin's functionality for other reasons, so I wouldnt mind having another garmin, although my main concern is that it should not lose signal in the city ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22400747 Sun, 17 May 2009 01:01:26 EDT
