I just got the TomTom One XL for a great price $149.95 I have the car icon on it changed to a black HHR and my start up screen has the chevy symbol with the HHR logo under it.
You can change your icon on most TomTom's so if you don't wanat to keep the arrow you can change that out.

Fortunately, I was able to write it off on my business.

Guessing....but something is probably wrong.
My Magellan Roadmate acquires almost instantly. 2-4 seconds.
My old Garmin takes about 2-3 minutes.
The Delorme software (2007) takes about 30 seconds.

Being around tall buildings can block your signal. I've had my Garmin Nuvi, take a long time aquiring satellites around high rise buildings in Las vegas. Never tried in Downtown San Diego though

Not sure if the unit is going bad or what, happens intermittenly, even driving back from Palm Springs, in the country, constantly get "lost satellite receptioin" guess it's time to start looking for new model, sucks because i just updated the maps to 2009 and just renewed my FM Traffic
