Found that app update listing here. Can anyone help regarding the base verion of the XL325SE? It appears to have the same things as the XL340S. The reason I ask is if this is indeed a rebrand then we can use the app update (9.xxx) and then in turn get the firmware updates that are needed?
The 340S is based on the Tomtom 2009 hardware platform and is very different from the 2008 platform 325SE. The 340S has twice the ram, so it can handle IQroutes/lane guidance/reality view, etc. And it has twice the flash space so it can handle lots more points of interest.
The 340S is a much much better model than the 325SE. I know people who are new to GPS may be enticed by the 325SE's price, but the quality of a 340 will make it well worth the cost if you plan to use your GPS more than a couple times a month.
