The TomTom ONE XL
The TomTom ONE XL-S adds text-to-speech, so you’ll get "turn left on Oak Street in 500 feet" rather than just "turn left in 500 feet." For more information on the differences between various TomTom GPS receivers, check out our TomTom GPS comparison chart.

Here’s a snippet from Amazon’s TomTom ONE XL review
"…it’s not just the broad geographical coverage that makes the TomTom ONE XL special. The user-friendly design also puts it a step above other navigation systems. The crystal-clear multicolor display makes for exceptionally easy viewing of maps, routes, driving directions, and other traveling information, such as mileage and distance. Measuring 4.3 inches, the TFT display offers an expanded widescreen view of brilliant two- and three-dimensional graphics. The device also features 32 MB RAM and 266 MHz CPU, making it responsive and zippy."

This looks like a really cool device – I’ve been using a TomTom ONE for a while now (also very good) and I can’t wait to take a look at the XL when they start showing up in the stores – the widescreen looks awesome.
