By 'Universal' they probably mean that it is a 'universal binary', a
phrase Apple uses to describe software built for both Mac OS X PPC and
x86. I agree that it is a misleading title, though.

I'm quite satisfied by my TomTom. It runs on Linux, and shows up as a
standard USB mass storage device when I plug it into any computer. No
need for special software.
