| Have tried every glare deducer made and nothing works for
the TomTom Rider. As said it works great at night, but
totally useless durning sun light. To bad TomTom doesnt
take thier products back. | |

| If you have never used a GPS you will like this one. If
you have then don't waist your time on the Tom Tom Rider.
It couldn't couldn't find anything that I needed and I mean
things like the Buffalo Chip. It says things like. Turn
right on street. What street. Anyone who has used a
Garmin will get a laugh out of that one. This GPS might be
worth a $100 but you will want to have a map and a phone
book with you just incase. Stick with a Zumo. They don't
even compare. Best thing I can say i, sounds like they are
off the market. | |

| Screen is totally invisible during the daylight hours
unless cloudy.
Works in the Car OK as long as it is screened so light will
hot hit the front.
Wearless headset is junk. If you already have a Headset
installed it is hard to install a second one for bluetooth.
Can't hear the commands via bluetooth headset even with
volume tuned up ..
Total waste of money for the Rider.
Other TOMTOM auto units work 1000% better, just wish they
were waterproof.
Find a GARMIN 2610 Referb unit. It will be better than this
thing. | |

| This is my third GPS, two previous Garmins and an earlier
Tom Tom. I use it primerily my motorcycle. 1. It can not be
used in a car unless you purchase an accessory which cost
around $100 extra. It works barely adequately once you get
the car adapter, but not as good as Tom Tom's own car units
which sell for less than $200.
I now have about 8000 miles on the motorcycle with the
unit. It would be an understatement to say that it is clear
that no one who has ever riden a bike had any involvement
with its design. The word "abysmal" comes to mind, but
worthless may better describe it.
The screen is bright enough to be read at night, but close
to completely illegible in daylight. Most of the data is
too small to be read on a moving bike under the best of
circumstances, but completely invisable in daylight.
I find it inconceivable that this is a version "2" of the
product. That implies that they had previously made a worse
one at one time. I find that hard to imagine.
I am giving the unit away to a friend who is unlikely to
use it for his bike, eating the loss and buying a Garmin. | |
