 Great GPS with Great value July 28, 2008
I've had mine for about a mounth now and it is a fantastic little device.
the reason I purchased the GPS is because I was going to be doing a lot of traveling in different states. That little talking screen was a life saver, I mean she lead me right to the door of my Hotel, she found places to eat. And when I say "she" I mean the disembodied Female voice the GPS has. The GPS has a few little Quarks but if one keeps driving on the same road and not making a lot of wild turns she well straghten her self out. Other then that the screen is bright and automatically changes for night driving, the windshield mount is really strong and stable.
So the bottom line is if you need to get somewere and don't like to read maps pick up the Magellan Maestro 4000.
Magellan Maestro 4000 July 22, 2008
I'm a veteran business traveller who relies heavily upon the Hertz Neverlost units, also from Magellan. But I recently did a personal road tour of the east coast (I live in Oregon). I rented a car from Hertz but opted against paying for Neverlost in favor of my nerw Magellan Maestro 4000. Hertz gave me the Neverlost anyway at no charge so I was able to compare the two. One would have thought they'd be the same, both being Magellan products. They are not the same and the hand held Magellan 4000 is the winner. The interface is easier to use and the graphic display has a larger vista. But most importantly (and inexplicably)the Magellan 4000 got me to more places than the Neverlost. Try this test in Westport MA for example. And in general, the directional instructions were more acurate. Only complaint: sometimes the ding-ding sounds just a little too late to know for sure the maneuver required. 20-30 feet sooner would be helpful. Excellent product in my opinion.
review of GPS purchase 6/8/08 July 9, 2008
I purchased Magellan Maestro 4000 4.3" GPS through Amazon.com on 6/8/08.
It was shipped from Pavilion Electronics and I received it, in perfect
condition and as advertised, on 6/14/08. I could not be more pleased, either with the merchandise or the service I received.
 Had some trouble right out of the box... June 25, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The screen is big (4.3 in.) the graphics are beautiful, the voice commands are very clear, it works very well, this units packs plenty of volume, so it is very easy to drive to your destination without having to look at it. The sensitivity is excellent, as it tunes to satellites within a few seconds.
My only gripe was with accuracy, as it always showed my vehicle's position about 1/2 block BEHIND at all times, it was also very slow re-calculating routes and that was a bit of an annoyance, but it resolved all this issues by installing the new firmware available as a free download at the Magellan site. NOTE: Updates are PC only, no Mac support that I'm aware of. For some reason the battery only lasts about 30-40 minutes, so the power supply cable has to be connected all the time or the battery quits suddenly.
The POI's are VERY limited in this model, so don't even count on them.
I've became accustomed to hearing the street & freeway exits by name with my Garmin and my older Magellan 760 (an earlier unit that was stolen from my car) but the Maestro 4000 does not speak street names, although the unit became very accurate and much faster after the updates. For those of you who like to hear the street names, this unit does not have this feature and it is not upgradable via the firmware.
In general this a very decent unit at a very decent price, nice display & voice, but it is a bare bones basic unit compared to the other Magellan models costing just a few dollars more.
Know the way June 22, 2008
Great GPS device. We took a trip to Austin, TX just after receiving it and was totally impressed. Today's technology is awesome!!
