Jennifer Saranow, a staff reporter for Wall Street Journal, recently wrote an article about car navigation devices titled, “Bargains for the Directionally Challenged.”  Her commentary includes recent category growth of personal navigation systems and promotes TomTom GO as one of the devices to look out for this holiday season.  Below are a few quotes from the article:

“Among other manufacturers offering promotions, TomTom is offering customers $50 off the $700 GO 300 model and off the $900 GO 700 models through Dec. 31, its second mail-in rebate for such devices in the U.S.”

“Both of the TomTom GO products were introduced in March. The more advanced 700 can speak in languages from Croatian to Russian, comes with a hard drive that can store more maps and also works as a hands-free kit for compatible Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones, among other features.”
