A Real bargain

"Not perfect, but then, I haven't found ANY GPS unit from ANY manufacturer at ANY price that was. I have had car navigation GPS units from all the major manufacturers and they all have some short comings. But let's focus on the Magellan 3100 for this review. The maps are 2006 release and any highway or road construction since then will not show up. Get over it. 99.9% of the roads in the USA will be covered. I'..." Read Full Review »

"I own this unit and the Tom Tom One 3rd edition. Both function well and will get you to where you need to go, but the Magellan 3100 is superior. Both acquire satellites quickly and calculate routes with about the same speed. The Magellan's window mount is superior and holds the device securely. …" Read Full Review »
