- ProsIncludes maps of Europe. Quick and responsive menus. Text-to-speech conversion. Multisegment routing. Map Share provides community-based map and POI updates.
- ConsTomTom PLUS weather and traffic services don't work with Sprint or Verizon handsets. Speech recognition limited to address input.
- Bottom LineThe 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.
Receiving Map Share updates is simple. Plug your GO 920 into the supplied USB 2.0 dock that's connected to a computer with Web access, run the TomTom Home 2 software (available on TomTom's site), and download the new data. In addition to Map Share, the Home 2 application lets you upload pictures to the device, download free voices (some of which have been submitted by the TomTom community), or purchase celebrity voices, such as Monty Python's John Cleese, for example. Home 2 also provides access to community-generated POI databases. While browsing, I found some really interesting ones, including Arizona state parks and great pubs in London that you can add to the GO 920. The JiWire Public Wi-Fi Database, which lists free Wi-Fi spots across the country, costs $15.
You also get access to TomTom PLUS cellular services, which provide weather and traffic data. Unfortunately, as on the GO 720, in order for the services to work you need a GSM-based cell phone from the likes of AT&T or T-Mobile in the U.S.
Four new features differentiate the GO 920 from the GO 720. First, and certainly most important for world travelers, are maps of Europe. These are loaded into the GO 920's 4GB of internal memory, so you needn't install additional data via an SD card. Here's a list of the included countries.
Available as a $59.95 option on the GO 720, a wireless remote control comes standard with the 920. Since the remote uses Bluetooth, you don't have to point it directly at the GPS, as you do with other devices that incorporate infrared (IR) technology. The remote has controls for volume up/down, as well as a navigation control (up/down/left/right) surrounding a button that functions as a select key. Unfortunately, there's virtually no information on the remote control to be found within the 97-page CD-based manual. You have to play around with it a little to figure out how it works, and, for that matter, how to change its batteries.
Anyone who has ever driven through the urban canyons of a major city or into a highway tunnel knows that when you lose sight of the sky, you'll also stop tracking enough satellites for navigation. Both versions of the GO 920 (there's also the $649.95 GO 920T, which includes an integrated traffic receiver) include a feature that TomTom calls Enhanced Positioning Technology (EPT). Should you lose satellite tracking, EPT estimates your current position based on the last known GPS position and updates it from data supplied by a built-in gyroscope and accelerometer, which sense lateral and forward/backward motion. Of course, the estimate isn't as accurate as the location determined when actually tracking three or more satellites, but until you regain a signal, it's far better than having your screen frozen at your last known location. When EPT is active, an EPT symbol appears in the lower right-hand corner of the screen, replacing the GPS signal strength bars.
Also new in the GO 920 is a voice recognition feature for entering addresses just by speaking them. For most entries, you'll want to use the Spoken Address dialog option (see the slideshow). You'll first receive a voice prompt asking for the city. After you say a city name, you'll be presented with the six closest matches. If your location is listed, simply say 'okay.' Otherwise, you can choose from one of the other five entries by saying the number corresponding to that entry. Similarly, you respond to the prompt for the street name and then, finally, for the street address by saying the numbers individually. For example, for 123 you would say 'one, two, three,' not 'one hundred twenty-three.' That's the extent of the GO 920's voice control. Once you enter the complete address (or cross streets), you still have to use either the touch screen or the remote to complete your navigation request. And even if you opt for the remote, you'll still have to touch the screen, since, oddly, the remote doesn't let you select Done, Yes, or No.
Even though I'd previously road-tested the GO 720, I took the GO 920 out for a few rides. On most of the routes, including the standard test routes, it did a good job, generating the same results as its sibling. I also tried a new path. This time, I found the GO 920's highway exit instructions a bit confusing, and because of this, I missed my exit. The device did, however, recalculate quickly to get me back on course and to my destination. I circled back and put the same destination into a Garmin nüvi 760 (our Editors' Choice winner) and drove the route again with both devices running simultaneously. The Garmin's spoken directions were more detailed and more frequent. Overall, though, the GO 920 provided fine navigation results.
All in all, the GO 920 represents a significantly better value than the GO 720. For about $100 more, you get maps of Europe, a wireless remote control, enhanced position technology, and speech recognition. If you're in the market for just the speech recognition, however, there are better options. The existing Magellan Maestro 4250 already does a better job of this by letting you speak specific commands such as 'Go Home' or 'Nearest Gas.' Also, the upcoming Garmin nüvi 880 holds the promise of complete menu control via voice. Still, features like TomTom's Map Share technology and TomTom PLUS services (if you have a supported phone and data plan) make the GO 920 worth considering.
