Does anyone know what the current monthly subscription for the Live traffic feature is? I saw a similar questio, but the questions / answers both are

Here is the BEST answer I can give you. It isn't worth it at ANT price. It NEVERS works so save your money. I can not tell you the nightmares I have endured with trying to get this miserable piece of junk's live traffic to work. . . over a period of YEARS and many RMA's. Don't bother.

S. brown,I just got my Dash & think it's fantastic, and so, I am curious about your post. Can you give us an idea about some of these cool ideas? (I know GEORSS can give you updated surf info & I am using it for a weather feed - but what else is around the corner?) And what did you mean by "until the NDA is lifted?Thanks!

Well you also get traffic license, which I don't think is included regularly. It will be interesting to see. Many people are complaining that they spent extra for this, but since I got it Black Friday, I'm not worried. The little extra I spent is worth it for the extra charger and car kit and the traffic license, which I use a lot. They'll probably match nokiausa.com's price eventually.

I was wondering, is there an option to disable traffic so I won't have to see the ads? Or are ads and traffic always on?

The ads are how they are able to offer free lifetime traffic and only show up if you are using the FM traffic receiver. The ads are not too obtrusive. I tested the traffic feature in Southern California for a couple of weeks, but decided that it wasn't useful enough. I'd be interested if others have found it useful.

I purchased the 340TM Live from Best Buy a few days ago. It comes with the RDS-TMC traffic receiver built in to the 12V power cord. You get 3 months worth of Live services for free, but after that it's over unless you subscribe. It still receives traffic data over FM from the RDS-TMC receiver after your Live services are disabled.

You just won't get live traffic updates. Everything else works. I use it on my motorcycle.

It comes with the limited time subscription. You might have to buy another subscription after that, but theCobra Aura database contains an extensive listing of redlight camera locations, speed traps, and dangerous intersections. We are constantly adding new locations to the database, so it is a good idea to routinely update your GPS Locator. You may update your GPS Locator as often as you wish during the subscription period. My husband is an over-the-road trucker and he says this GPS is invaluable

Hello, This is pretty up to date you can update your maps anytime by hooking up to your pc. You can save yourself the extra $100. The only issue I have with it is when you are coming out of a tunnel it takes a solid minute to get back to work. I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. Best of luck and trucking.

smart phone service? As long as you can put the app on your phone then I would say yes. I love it pull app up and you know were your car is in seconds. tracks in real time and is the cheapest monthly fee around

J. Chan has the same question I have. TomTom has a 340TM LIVE unit, but I cannot determine if the Lifetime Traffic service is Lifetime LIVE Traffic Service or a Lifetime RDS service subscription.

The receiver works. It's actually located in the auto charger plug, so you must have that plugged in to receive traffic. Also, the traffic info is supplied by a third-party, and Tom-Tom can't guarantee that it will be provided. I've had mine for over a year and at one point their was no traffic info in my area for about 3 weeks due to a problem from the third problem. When it works, it's great. Will alert you to problems, suggest a faster route, and let's you select the route you want. My local provider (Tampa Bay, FL area gives good info for highways and major roads, but not the smaller ones.

Hello,I just got a 1490T. Please excuse my ignorance, but I decided on that unit for the traffic feature as I commute over 35 miles each way. Thing is, I can't find a description anywhere that tells me what I need to do to have access to just the traffic info i.e. do I need to have the GPS active even when I don't need it - I know how to get to my office, for example. I'm a bit confused......Regards,Barry

I'm not sure what the traffic option is. If that is something that you need to subscribe to a service for, then I don't have that. I really like this GPS and what it does. I'm just not sure what the option is that you're asking about. Sorry.

I am not sure but I believe the ads only show up when using the traffic feature. Turn off that feature and the ads go away.

If you get the web-enabled traffic app that works through your smart phone data plan for a one-time payment of $15 then it provides real-time traffic that updates several times a minute. It will tell you of traffic ahead of you, tell you how much delay you will have, and route you around it if you so choose. It will also show traffic on your route and give you an alternate route with traffic also. The HD Traffic that is free with the unit and uses HD radio is not very good. It updates rarely and is not real-time and is very sporadic. If you get the unit and have a smart phone then just pay the fee and get the web app for use through your smart phone. it is totally worth it. its the first standalone gps traffic feature i've ever had that actually works.

Do you know if the 360 has the traffic capability to re route if there are traffic jams in the area? I live in the ATL area and that is something that we really need. Please let me know.
