 Easy to Use July 20, 2008

This little device has already paid for itself in the month we have used it. No more guessing when your turn is coming up or which lane to be in. This little baby gets you there.
 Magellan 4250 July 19, 2008
I've had the Magellan 4250 for about a month now and really like it. I have had some of the problems that others reported like a couple of times the voice has activated when not aked but not anything I would consider a problem.
The one draw back is the audio it isn't nearly loud enough.
Overall I really like it a lot and have found all the features voice and traffic alerts extremely helpful.

THIS COMPANY IS NOT ONE YOU WANT TO BUY FROM OR DEAL WITH! I bought a brand new gps online, and after I received it, it malfunctioned on the 2nd day of having it! It was stuck on a settings screen--unable to be used. I tried to reset it, but it was evident that my new unit was defective when I got it. Magellan doesn't have customer service on the weekends, so...... I had to wait until Monday to talk to a technical support person. I was told to send it to the repair center. I talked to about 5 representatives who all must be overseas, and no one was concerned about my defective unit. I asked to speak to a supervisor, and I was sent around in circles without getting any help. I have wrote letters, made calls and even got the better business bureau involved. THIS COMPANY IS NOT WILLING TO BACK THEIR PRODUCTS. THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO SATISFY THEIR CUSTOMERS. If you received a defective unit, tough.....now you have to pay to get it to the repair center. Evidently, they do not invest in testing their products beforehand or pay a little more for American representatives to service Americans. HOW CHEAP! BEWARE!!! I've read reviews before where people received defective units, and I said, oh, that's just one in a million--it won't happen to me. Well, you never know, do you? If they are not willing to back their products, how reliable will their products be? How many times will I have to send it off for repairs?
On its use, its probably near the same as other gps devices. On several occasions, I tried to go a certain route that I knew, and the gps would recalculate my route and tell me to go to the next exit and turn around to get back on their route. How absurd! I didn't want to go that way, so I expected it to reroute me a different way. It didn't. The Bluetooth wanted to turn off when I wasn't talking on it, even though I wanted to keep it enabled while driving. So, forget it, enough hassle. When typing in a point of interest by name, the buttons are sensitive and letters get repeated. When using the trip planner, I wanted to find out the route from one destination to another, but I couldn't get that info until I reached the first destination, then it would take me to the next one. Great idea, but this trip planner needs some work. I would definitely suggest looking into a reputable company for a gps, not Magellan.
Magellan Maestro 4250 ROCKS! July 18, 2008
I have tried several different units, (Garmin, Navigon 2100 maxx, Magellan 1412), before getting this unit. This one is the best by far. I upgraded the firmware immediately upon arrival and the unit is working flawlessly. Bluetooth works great with my Blackberry Pearl. I like the fact that these units have an audible signal that sounds when you are at your turn, the Garmin unit did not have this. Plus it came with a nice travel pouch in the box and installed with no problems in my car with the suction cup. A big plus was that I got a free year of traffic updates with the unit. If you are looking for a really good portable GPS unit with a nice screen, this is the one to get!
