I have TomTom5 PDA and have had a couple of instances of issues with
complex junctions.

Last week i used it to go Rushden and it got confused at one
junction, told me to go one way and showed a different way on the
map (the map was correct).

It also gets very confused in Swindon at the "Magic Roundabout".
It
completely gave up there and just representaed 1 roundabout with the
wrong number of exits.

Occassionally it seems to get confused when i am driving along as
well, it will suddenly jump from being on the correct road to being
in the middle of a field, this only lasts a couple of seconds and
then it goes back to normal - i dont know whether this is an issue
with the software or the GPS device.

Other than that I am very happy with it - couldn't live without it
anymore.
