Customer Reviews

Great GPS and good functionallity
I have been very impressed with this GPS unit. I have had several before, Garmin and Tom Tom, but this unit is by far the easiest I have used.

The voice functions work well although you sometimes have to repeat words, but I love the fact that using voice commands does not require you to touch the unit AT ALL for some basic commands.

The traffic functionality seems good but I have not had any situations to test it yet. I did have to use the detour function in an area that did not have traffic coverage and it was easy to use and very intuitive.

One complaint on the unit, and the only real reason it gets 4 stars, not 5, is the screen is VERY bright, which works great during the day (I have never seen a unit so easy to read in sunlight), but at night it can not be dimmed as much as I would prefer. The colors can be set to automatically change to night colors, which do help, but the brightness is a little too much for my taste.

Overall, I would highly recommend this unit to anyone.

Magellan GPS 3250
I bought my magellan 3250 last year for $300 at $99.95 I think this a great deal. I can't say enough about the Magellan 3250. Its small on the dash so it doesn't block you view is very good at finding the fastest or best way to get someplace (except in Indendence, OR) Will take you right up to the front door. But what I Liked the best was in Portland when we were stuck on the freeway do to a wreck and the Magellan was able to help us get around it and save an hour of time.
I like the Blue-Tooth for my Cell phone and the voice commands also.

Nice device, but OLD maps
I purchased this item expecting it to include a current set of maps as part of the refurbishing process. Instead it came with the 2006 version of USA maps which are 2-3 years old. I have another refurbished GPS unit, purchased a couple of years ago on Ebay from another manufacturer, and it came with a current set of maps but doesn't have some of the features this unit has. So I was extremely disappointed when neither Amazon.com or Magellan were at all interested in correcting the situation. So I would recommend against purchasing this item because you may need to spend another $75 right off the bat to update the maps.
