I can trace the history of TomTom GPS devices: my first one was bought in 2008 at BestBuy in Seattle during a US trip (we called it "Dave" after the voice's name, grew kinda fond of it and even used it in Germany despite or maybe because of it reading German place names with a funny US "accent"). Of course it was limited by the technology available at the time: the touchscreen was low-res and reacted sluggishly, and the memory was limited, so you had to constantly swap between maps that you could store on the device and those backed up on your PC. I kept around a Windows installation just for updating this TomTom, because I wanted to avoid the hassle and was afraid of losing the maps when trying to transfer them. Then I finally bought a new TomTom in 2019, and it was much better: bigger, better screen, could fit a map for the whole world in memory, free lifetime updates, could connect to Wi-Fi to update itself, so no more fiddly PC software needed etc. But unfortunately TomTom's maps were extremely lacking in the very first country we wanted to use it in (Ecuador).
