TomTom ONE 140/ONE 140-S
$170.00
Released April, 2009
The Pros:Affordable prices. Text-to-speech feature of the 140-S is worth the $20 upgrade from the 140. Include Mexico and Puerto Rico in North America (usually only Canada and USA).
The Cons:No live updates. No Bluetooth phone interface. Poor mounting bracket.
The TomTom ONE 140 and ONE 140-S are similarly featured entry-level GPS devices. The ONE 140 is exactly the same as the ONE 140-S, except for the added text-to-speech functionality, which is used for street names and places.

The TomTom ONE 140/140-S sports a black bezel with chrome trim, unlike its predecessor (ONE 130-S), which was outfitted with a gray design. Both models feature a 3.5” LCD screen and a removable suction-cup mounting bracket. Improvements in the ONE 140 include a “Quick Menu,” which allows fast access to up to six common GPS functions. Maps have been improved, including seven million points of interests across the U.S. & Puerto Rico, Canada and Mexico. ONE 140 owners will also get “Advanced Lane Guidance,” which shows what lane the driver should be in. Live traffic is not included; one must purchase a separate traffic receiver and also pay a yearly subscription fee.
