I took off the adhesive but I'm having a problem with it sticking to the device you put on your dash board. I'm I doing something wrong? Hi

I figured out that the text-to-speech has to be set to work which I set and will try tomorrow (that was my first problem): 1) When I select the, "Places of Worship" POI, I get all kinds of El Hallil kind of funky mosks but no actual churches. Do I need to change the setting to find only Christian places? 2) When I use the suction mount, it seems to adhere properly, but after only a few moments, it lets go. Any help would sure be appreciated, Richard I just received my Tomtom XL 330 S and have two questions.

Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. I’m trying to decide between a TomTom XL330s or a Garmin Nuvi 265WT for my first GPS, which one is best?

If you're having trouble, call TomTom support-- they can help you get the right map and trim out unnecessary files. I’ve got a 330 that is updated with space left.

There is no room for a upgrade. If you delete the program that is on the 330s, Lucky I kept a copy of it on my computer, when I tried to download the new version, it said it was unable to load. DUH, sure wish it had a card slot, like my old Tom Tom One. I still use my old Tom Tom One! I hate it when you have to delete something to make room for a newer version and then when you try to download the newer version, it won't work. What ever you do, make sure you keep a copy and anything you have to delete. You can always put it back on your GPS. I bought the 330s and have never been able to upgrade it.

When you first get it you will notice that over 950 MB of the 1000 MB of space is taken up and you cant do nothing about it. I switched for the Garmin 255w for the same price.

Also just found out by the web that there are free updates is downloaded 30 days after purchase. Can someone tell me if this true, or is it axctually after it is turn on or maybe after it is registered. It is like 46 days before she will open the box. Do I bring it back and buy it later?

The most likely reason for what I think you are describing is just that the GPS doesn't yet have a satellite signal. For the first acquisition I wouldn't be worried about an issue unless the device has had an unobstructed sky view for 30+ minutes. Keith, is the device inside?
