Pros: Easy to use and read. Mostly accurate. Cons: Tech support is horrible. BottomLine: If you get a unit that works you will love it! If yours does not work it's likely you will fall into to the Magellan Technical Support abyss.
Pros: Ease of setup, voice/trip features. Cons: Turning unit off; calling via address book. BottomLine: This unit would fulfill the needs of 1st time users as well as experienced ones.
Pros: Multiple destinations, traffic monitoring, text to speech announcement of all streets, not just interstates etc. Cons: CD manual not printed. Traffic antenna adds clutter but I've hidden it, On/off button clumsy. BottomLine: Recommend- has all the function features -I was looking for. Haven't tested the other nav units, but this unit doesn't have me yearning for more.
