0ur opinion:

-- November 13, 2007:
We've been big fans of Magellan's Maestro line since it came out in early 2006. The Maestro interface is incredibly easy to use, even for those who are not completely comfortable with electronics. At the same time, Magellan was ahead of the industry with useful innovations like multi-destination routing and pre-loaded reviews for points of interest like hotels and restaurants (from AAA). With it's 3200 and 4200 series, Magellan has improved the Maestro line giving them a SirfStar lll chipset that provides super-fast. satellite lock and making them thinner. ln fact, at .7 inches, these are -- at the time of this writing (November 2007), the thinnest portable GPS navigators available.

Distingushing between models is also fairly easy. The 3200-series navigators feature a 3.5-inch screen, while the 4200s have a 4.3-inch widescreen display. The 3200 and 4200 offer great, basic navigation with turn-by-turn spoken directions, pre-loade maps of the 48 contiguous United States, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, and 1.3 million P0ls. The 3210 and 4210, add maps for Canada and Alaska, AAA travel information (see details below) and bump you up to 6 million P0ls. The 3220 and 4220 add maps of Mexico. The top-of-the-line 3250 and 4250 add a host of other features, including text-to-speech directions that give real street names, bluetooth for hands-free phone calls, integrated traffic (with a free 3-month subscription), and voice command.

Buyer's feedback: - * Magella Maestro ...
I have a Magellan Maestrol 3210 for our use and am so happy with it that I have purchased a second one as a gift. Great product !!

---

Buyer's feedback: - Good for the price
I was looking for an inexpensive nav unit and liked this one. Nice features for the price and works well. Would be better if it spoke street names. Sometimes picks goofy route that you know isn't the shortest/fastest way. All in all, I'm happy with the unit.

Buyer's feedback: - * Awesome product ...
I bought this for my In-laws and they love it. It is very simple and very easy to use, even for the technology challenged. I love the POI for upcoming exits and the ease of use.

---

Buyer's feedback: - Pretty good for the price
Overall this GPS has been well worth the money. It's interface is very intuitive and it re-routes almost immediately when I miss a turn. Occasionally it suggests a route that is longer than I would expect but it has always lead me to right location. The six million POIs have also come in handy as I always know where the nearest gas station/bank is. Highly recommended!

Buyer's feedback: - * Basic no frills navigation ...
This is a basic GPS, has no picture viewer or mp3 player and does not speak the street names ( which I find not to be a problem. It does one thing. Gets you where you want to go. I got this one because its similar to the one used in the Hertz rental cars. Except the Hertz version has like 20 million points of interest. This one has 6 million, which is better than most at his price range. I think the additional POIs in the AAA tourbook make the difference. Speaking of the AAA tourbook, its great. You get info on lots of resturants, hotels/motels, attractions etc. Its not perfect, sometimes sends you in a roundabout way, but I think all GPS systems are like that. Basically for the price its a great little GPS.
