I should preface all this by saying I also have a ONE3rEd and LOVE it. So much I've convinced many people to buy TT. When I coudl not find a 740 locally, I bought a Nuvi855 which I have been trying. Finally found a 740 so I thought I would benchmark the two. Here is my short (less than 24 hr so far) expereince with TT740...
First BUG: See my prior post that when dialing from Google Search, TT740 automatically puts a 011 before the #. Called help desk and they said I am the first person in the US with this problem.
Second BUG: I connected my device to HOME, downloaded updates and it would no longer connect to Live. Spent 1+ hr on phone with help desk resetting to factory settings and trying to uninstall certain items. AGAIN: this is device is less than 4 hours old!!! They said it was a hardware problem. [On a side note - was on the phone with a supervisor named Jermaine who had my cell in case we got disconnected - which we did - and never called back. Sat on hold twice for > 1hr before giving up on help desk]. SO... I returned the unit for a brand new one since TT thought it could be hardware. Got it home and immediately backed the unit up to HOME. After it was backed up, I disconnected the unit and tested the LIVE service. It worked fine. So next I had it do its first update (I think it was only map share - no voices or anything like that). After the update the LIVE service would not work again. SOMETHING IS BUGGY ABOUT THE UPDATES COMING FROM HOME.
I restored the unit from HOME. This was the first and only backup I made on the unit - before HOME downloaded or updated anything on the unit. The unit STILL does not connect to Live.
BTW... I've been on hold waiting just now for the help desk for about an hour (3rd time calling in on hold).
Oh also - last night I called the help desk at 6:50. Was on hold until 7:15 at which time a recording came on that said they close at 7:00 and disconnected me.
