 Excellent GPS July 19, 2007
This Magellan 2200T is sturdy, portable and really is simple and intuitive. I thought it might be to complicated, but all the family uses it to be the "co-pilot." I think it is a great value for the price. The talking option is great for when you don't want to take your eyes off the road, as in bad traffic. The user manual is a little thin, but you can find good online primers for usage.

After owning so many of the old style GPS units, thought it was time for a street direction unit with a nice color screen. Have used this now for 4 months and have had ZERO problems! Another wonderful thing, is it comes with every single thing you need included. A charger for the car OR the home AND a mount for the car. And with up to 8 hours of charge when removed from a power source, this is just a GREAT device!
I have done endless wrong turns etc on purpose to watch the MAGIC of this units ability to reroute me. Just always "fixes" my dilemma every single time. Just added a Motorcycle mount as well so when it is not in my car or truck, I just "snap" it out of its cradle & onto my motorcycle. The voice directions are loud and CLEAR. I LOVE this unit!
July 8, 2008 UPDATE: After so much time with this unit, I LOVE it in my cars & trucks. But NOT on any of my motorcycles OR Motor Scooters. You can NOT see the screen at all in direct sunlight. You can also NOT hear directions on 2 wheels either & I have even tried an earpiece in my helmets. Several different ear buds as well=can NOT hear! Just in case you want this for 2 wheels? I would remove a star to make this a 4 star product but am not allowed to do so. I also am a bit worried that the internal battery is something I can NOT replace and it is holding less & less of a charge after 1 year. When it dies, I just have a paperweight....Uneasy feeling.

So far so good. Display is easy to see. Directions are easy to follow. Points of interest are sometimes difficult to access.
 Were the map up to date it would be a good unit July 8, 2007
I purchased this unit about 2 weeks ago. The unit is light, readable, audio is ok, battery life seems good. But the map is lousy. I live in Miami, the metro area is one of the biggest in the US. Yet some of the most basic roads it does not seem to have or does not have them correctly! I called Magellen and updated the software to the latest, but it does not seem to affect the maps. Magellen claims to be coming out soon with updated software to make this unit a Crossover,which will be nice. But that won't fix the map problem. Since this is the most basic feature required of a GPS I can't give it a passing mark. Luckily I can return it, and I will.

Don't buy unless you like outdated roadmaps and poor customer service. Magellan apparently doesn't plan on providing parts for their products. The cradle broke right after I purchased the unit, I went to their website and ordered a replacement. I have been waiting over a month now, I have had contact with service dept. twice, but was a waste of my time. The part is on backorder with status of 'availabilty unknown'. You either hold it in your hand or lay it down to use it. I have a Nuvi 350 that is much better, and the maps are excellent .
