What do you mean no? You're saying the same thing, you just added a step to explain why the alternatives were cheaper (free).

No, it was not a price point only problem.

That's not at all what I am saying? Tomtom's updates were very expensive though. A smartphone with non-free map alternatives won't get you there so it's not the smartphone either. Both developments were necessary, either one on their own isn't sufficient.
