I love using this to get around. I really don't need bluetooth, text to speech and stuff like that. I just need something to get around. It gets a signal quickly even inside a tunnel and I have never lost a signal! But best of all it has great directions. Even when I try it on routes I already know it ends up getting me there faster. It almost as if it knows which roads get backed up. And while I have never used it the detour feature seems useful to get you out of traffic. It does take a little while to recalculate if you go off course but it is only like 10 seconds. The screen is big enough so I can quickly glance at it while driving and not see a cluttered screen. The list of POIs is extensive but not perfect.

The only real con is that it is unable to plan complete trips with multiple destinations.

It does not come with a USB cable that is required for download updates, lucky I had one from other Magellan handheld I use for geo-caching. A regular USB will not fit. Other than that seems like a great unit for the sale price, wish it had a AC adapter for charging inside or took user replacable batteries. But we can't have everything, can we?
