TomTom - Names of Rivers and Lakes

Do any TomTom maps show these? , I am disappointed on the lack of detail on the TomTom maps compared with Garmin.

I was looking at one of the latest Garmins a few weeks ago and the detail was excellent, when you passed a landmark like a river or a lake etc a little text box popped up with the name on it.

I don't know why TomTom never integrated this, it is interesting if you are passing a landmark to know what it is. I had it in my two previous cars also with built in Sat Nav (Vauxhall and BMW)

There is very little detail on the TomTom maps, I just bought the 1005 live as it advertized "Richer Maps" but I see nothing different in terms of map content, they even show very few steet names also.
The google live search is a great feature but it is also flawed

I'm sorry you are disappointed.
