Thanks for your help |
I think
www.tomtom.com is going to be your best avenue for all the differences.

However, for me, I bought the 910 as I like the fact it has a remote control, I also like the fact that it has an internal HDD - giving you an extra 20gb for it as a MP3 player etc (as opposed to a SD card forthe 710).
Also, I think the cost difference between them is only £50 or thereabouts so, if the money's not the issue then I would go for it.
Finally, and for this was the clincher, I really like the way the 910 can give you text-to-speech instructions - i.e. to plagarise TT's website:
"The TomTom GO 910 features text-to-speech, which means that it can announce street and place names and even read out SMS messages."
This is great! Telling you turn left in 100 yards is fine - but telling you to turn left into Church Lane in 100 yrds is far better. (especially as sometimes the tomtom is not totally accurate if there's many roads in a small area).
Good luck and hope this helps
