Convenient, functional, yet redundant and incomplete
This remote control allows you to access the different options and menus with your TomTom GO 500/700 all without touching the screen. This is achieved by the use of a radio frequency and therefore it does not require a 'line of sight' with your GPS unit. The remote also allows you to easily adjust the volume of the audio instructions by the use of the top two -/+ buttons. In the center it has a radial dail that has up/down and left/right cursor functions as well as a large enter/select button in the center. There are two more buttons below this radial dail that I'm unclear as to their funtions, I believe they may also adjust the volume, but that seems to be redundant. There is one more button located bottom-center that I assumed to be an on/off button but it (nor any other button) did not serve in that capacity, if anything it appeared to be another enter/select button....again redundant. I've only had this device a couple of days and perhaps those buttons do serve as shortcuts to certain funtions, but with TomTom not providing any instructions other than how to insert the batteries along with descriptions merely touting its convenience, I'm left to tinkering with it myself to discover if any other funtions do indeed exist. There is also a protective holder included with the remote, that if you wish you can utilize the adheasive backing on it to mount it to any easily accessible place in your vehicle. I chose not to permanantly mount my remote's holder as I use my TomTom Go 700 in different vehicles, but that's a personal preference, who knows maybe these holders are, or will be available to purchase separately to mount in multiple vehicles.
Tom Tom Remote Control
Hands free operation is superb. No more fingerprints on the screen. I have a Tom Tom 510 and could not be happier with the remote. Great addition for anyone wanting hands free operation for their Tom Tom GPS.
What A Problem!-bought wrong model
The details for which Tom-Tom unit this accessory works with would have been helpful. Not only are there NO instructions; this unit only works with Tom-Toms before the 720 series... so I gifted this unit to my brother. There is no way to indicate how to "synch" the units nor to tell if it is "on or off"; no instructions... and I finally called the Tom-Tom Help Desk to resolve my problem. I am flabbergasted, after this much fiddling around with the object, to find out that I have purchased one that will not work with my machine. At least I have a use for it; and SOMEONE will be happy; -if they can figure out how to work it... I hope it really is fairly easy to figure out... no instructions anywhere.
