Crystal clear navigation
TomTom Navigator 2 has all the best elements
of the highly successful first version,
like uncluttered maps, easy-to-use controls,
and crystal clear on-screen directions and
verbal instructions. In this new version
we’ve added many new features.
TomTom Navigator 2 couldn’t be easier
to use. Just enter your destination using
the large finger-touch on-screen keyboard
and your journey is planned door-to-door
from your current location. TomTom Navigator
2 even finds a way around any obstacles
you encounter en route, like traffic congestion
or roadworks, so you’re always on
the right track!
You can zoom in and out to see everything
from a whole country or region to a single
house number or road feature. That means
a complete and reliable picture of your
journey every inch of the way.
The very latest maps and information
TomTom Navigator 2 features the very latest
digital maps of Western Europe from Tele
Atlas. These give comprehensive coverage
of Western Europe, and include cross-border
regions for certain countries and off-shore
islands. They’re also incredibly accurate.
Yet despite containing more information
than ever, they don’t take up more
memory thanks to the latest memory-saving
techniques.
Wherever you are TomTom Navigator 2 gives
you the knowledge on local points-of-interest.
It also remembers your recent trips and
all your important personal locations like
home, work and that favourite picnic spot!
