i got one for £30, a europe one. the sound didnt work on it and it was brand new so opened it up and scraped the insulation off the speaker terminal and it all works now. Great little bit of kit, does the job nicely with clear directions and screen. can customise the colours of the map too which helps. if you get one, pm me your email address and i will send you 40 celeb voices for tom toms. some good ones in there

I think they are great. start up quickly, find the route quickly, loads of free downloads available online, detect speed cameras, show your speed by gps, show the speed limit of the road you are on, easy to use
well worth the money.

(lifted from voice install guide)
-----------------------------------
.:INSTRUCTIONS FOR TOMTOM GO/one ONLY:
-----------------------------------
A. You will need to extract/unzip the files to a folder on your PC (a good idea is to make a new folder, for example, "C:\tomtom").
B. Switch on your TomTom.
C. Connect your tomtom go to the computer with your USB cable.
i.e. Click the Start logo [usually] at the bottom left of your screen & then click on "my computer" and you should see the tomtom under Devices with Removable Storage with a small icon.
Double click on the icon and the Tom Tom's folder view will open.
D. If you have a folder labelled "voices", double click it. Then proceed to step F, otherwise goto Step E
E. You need to store you voice files in the root folder (the first folder you see, after following Step C).
F. Copy any of the voice **files** from the folder (not the folder) and paste into the folder selected in steps D or E (i.e. copy all the files from that folder: data96.chk and data96.bmp and data96.vif).
G. Repeat for as many voices as you like.
H. After pasting the last voice wait about 30 seconds (after copying has completed) and then remove your USB cable.
I. Your TomTom will now re-boot and the voices will be available to select.
