I ordered one just now. Need to pick a card from woolworth first as i didnt have earlier and called DSE to get this offer.
Just got off the phone with DSE customer service The “Store Profile” link above takes you to dse.com.au. This deal is only through everydayrewards.dse.com.au. Go to http://everydayrewards.dse.com.au to buy
I called 1300 366 644 (Given at the terms and conditions page) as the card i bought today at woolies was not updated on the website. He took the order over phone. He said this product can be ordered via the web or the phone.
Interesting thing about this everydayreward card on the news:
Woolies’ new card will trail shoppers

Retailers have been tracking consumers’ spending habits for ages with loyalty cards such as FlyBuys, MyerOne etc. Woolworths just takes it to the next level by combining the loyalty program with a credit card. But this has already been done by Myer with the Myer Credit Card.

I have tried 2 cards that I got today and two cards of other people and none of them worked yay!
i had same issue, so ordered over phone. I thought this may be due my new card activation period is short and may be their site (DSE site) not getting info sooner about the card.
Upto 8 hours, so not always i think (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134&pID=398#specsTab)
The guy who took order said on wednesday, i will get email about shipping, but didnt receive the email till today. Calling the number and on the phone, but the same time courier came and delivered it.
Order on phone saved 20$ on extended warranty then the website.
Played little with it. If i go to corner of my building, it gets GPS reception which is pretty good. Yes, the australian voice announces the street names (on demo mode, i confirmed).
As I used tomtom earlier (and still on my PDA), this american model is vastly different. Need some learning curve for all features, may get some disappointment too on missing some of the tomtom customization features, But very happy with bluetooth calling with my PDA phone. It doesnt support SMS on my model, but rest all is good.
Doing the map update now.
the reason i went for additional warranty is, this unit definitely not expected to last for 5 years, and may be not even serviceable, so i may get refund from insurance :-p
In this review

it talks about the GPS having a “Fuel usage mode”
Have you been able to see or use this feature?
Thanks
i feel like tomtom and garmin are like windows and mac (not in any order). this one got very good signal reception - but could be same with tomtom too being sirf-III, map is very latest, trip monitor is very nice one. Can play audio while driving and it automatically manages the direction along with music and i connected the audio to my car Aux input which is great. Phone answer via bluetooth is great and works perfect with my pda phone.
Overall, the price is great here. If tomtom sells at same price, and got same features (spoken street names - which is common on new models of tomtom too, music play while driving - not there on basic models, good battery life - they are not there yet, bluetooth handsfree - only high models), may be tomtom is great due to display customizable.
