Amazon.com Product Description -- 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 its 3200 and 4200 series, Magellan has improved the Maestro line giving them a SirfStar III chipset that provides super-fast. satellite lock and making them thinner. In 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.
3200 and 4200 Family of Navigators
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 POIs. The 3210 and 4210, add maps for Canada and Alaska, AAA travel information (see details below) and bump you up to 6 million POIs. 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.

 Great little GPS July 15, 2008
I like the GPS a lot. The voice recognition needs some refining, but I dont use that option often. Has gotten me everywhere I need to go, and can recompute the route quickly if I choose to ignore the original directions.
 not as good as I expected July 15, 2008
This is my second Magellan GPS. Although this has better features like allowing me to enter an address by zip code. The map doesn't seem to match the voice prompts so I have found myself passing streets.
I would still reccomend it but I would look at some of the higher end models.
Magellan Maestro 3250 July 14, 2008
This item is very nice and we have been very pleased with the performance of the GPS. It has many more options than we thought it did when we purchased it.
Great GPS for the money July 12, 2008
I love this gps. It has little quirks that I have seen described by reviewers of much higher priced devices but overall I am very pleased with the unit. It is compact and stylish. Easy to use. The spoken names are great. The voice recognition is a neat feature as is the bluetooth. You have to wait a couple of seconds after the unit asks what you want but then it works fine. I got a free year of traffic service but haven't really used it as I haven't been near a major city which is the only place it works I think. I highly recommend this gps.
A Nice Talking Unit That Works July 11, 2008
Magellan Maestro 3250 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
Unit works very well. Very clear screen and excellent detail. You can ask the unit to give the nearest gas station or eatery, or ATM. If your a Tripe AAA Motorclub member they are giving an extra year warranty coverage until the end of July 2008. Call Triple AAA get the code and register it on line through Tripe A. Magellan is offering a Free year of traffic service find it under the traffic enabled units on there website. Really a neat unit and works well. If you listen to a loud radio you may need to turn it down to ask Magellan questions. Gets you to where you are going with ease. Have not used the Bluetooth yet but it wanted to pair up with my phone. I have heard positive words that feature works pretty well meaning most phones. I have a Garmin C330 and this Maestro 3250 is much nicer.
