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

The voice functions work well altho you from time to time have to repeat words, but I love the fact that using voice commands does not require you to touch the unit AT ALL for a lot of 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 for the duration of the day (I have never seen a unit so easy to read in sunlight), but at night it may not be dimmed as much as I would prefer. The colors may be set to mechanically change to night colors, which do help, but the luminance is a little too much for my taste.

Overall, I would highly commend this unit to anyone.

Magellan GPS 3250
By Walter R. Davies
I purchased my magellan 3250 last year for $300 at $99.95 I think this a great deal. I can't say sufficient regarding the Magellan 3250. Its little on the dash so it doesn't block you view is very good at finding the quickest 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 competent to support us get around it and save an hour of time.
I like the Blue-Tooth for my Cell phone and the voice commands also.

POOR SUPPORT
By TomA
Magellan will NOT help these refurbished units. This item comes with EXTREMELY OLD maps and software installed and Magellan wants you to pay $80 to upgrade it to the latest version. If this unit was factory refurbished, why doesn't it have the latest software?

This unit goes back to Amazon.
