A: The box had two cables. One a USB cable to connects the device to your computet. Another cable is for use in your car. It connects to the 12 volt outlet and has a device on the cable which picks up the signal about traffic conditions. It also charges the device at the same time, which should also happen if you have the device connected to your computer.
A: Hey Kevin! Thanks for your question. The Traffic information that is used with the VIA 1505TM is by radio waves. The device comes with an 'RDS-TMC' Receiver included, which you can tune to your local area's radio traffic network. This information is not as timely or accurate as TomTom's Live Traffic, which is available on some models via connection to smartphone. Models that use this include the GO 520 / 620 models. Cheers! - Cameron at TomTom
A: Yes, this GPS will suggest rerouting on the go.
A: Hey Jackpot, Contrary to the previous answer, this device does come with an SD card slot. This is for a microSDcard up to 32GB in size. So, in total you can get 40GB of storage on this TomTom! That's plenty for installing maps and favorites on your TomTom. Drive safe! - Cameron at TomTom
A: Hi there, thanks for your question. The RDS Receiver will pick up the signal by itself, so you do not need to connect it to your radio and it will be possible to listen to the radio whilst using the accessory. More information can be found here :- http://bit.ly/2E4xEgO I hope this helps! Safe Travels :) Cheers, Becky@TomTom
A: I had a TomTom with Lifetime maps. I came to find out lifetime meant the lifetime of the unit and because I bought it on close-out. It was only good for 7 years
