Magellan knows GPS! I now own the Roadmate and the Maestro!
HERE IS WHAT I GOT:
This light weight Magellan RoadMate 800 is a wonderful portable GPS and uses the fabulous Hertz NeverLost technology.
They say you can "turn it on and go" and I am happy to say this was true for me. It took very little time for the satellites to locate my...

The Roadmate 800 is TOP DOG in GPS driving directions
OK, Magellan has outdone itself. I have owned the previous 500 and 700 series Roadmate units, and with each one of Magellan's Roadmate units, it keeps refining the main goal: Providing EASY access to real-time driving directions.
One main comment I MUST MAKE which is common to ALL...

Now I got a wonderful toy. :)
The days of printing maps via any on-line map services and/or trip planning-software is now over for me. From this day forward, this gadget shall service me on all my trips. :)

Never owned a GPS before, and now I'm addicted
I bought the unit at Costco because of the price and the return policy, thinking that if I did not like it would be no problem to take it back. Buying it at Costco was also a strategy to use with my wife since it was pretty expensive. But after I had it for two days, I said, "I can't take it back,... Read full review »

(Read Below for My Update ONE YEAR LATER and another Update (dated Nov. 13) which I wrote after this first section was written:)
I bought the Roadmate 800 at Sharper Image earlier this week. I sat in the parking lot, opened the box, read the Manual for about two minutes and took it out of...

SAY GOODBYE TO PAPER MAPS
The first time I ever tried any type of GPS device was while I was vacationing in Germany. Not only were the roads confusing but the way the most European countries direct you by road signs is by routing you toward a city instead of what direction you are heading and if you don't know where that...

Roadmate is really nifty toy
I got my Roadmate from J&R through Amazon and it was great for about a week. (More on that later.) It was easy to use, just type in the address of where I was going and it gave me a choice of fastest route, shortest route, most use of freeways and least use of freeways. It was usually pretty...

Definitely worth the money, but a few problems
To begin with, let me just say that I'm glad I bought this. I live on the outskirts of Los Angeles, but HATE to drive there, and this is a wonderful tool to find my way around. Since others have written about how great this is, I'm going to focus on the things I don't like, but realize that the... Read full review »
Poorly designed device, horrible tech support
We have purchased two Magellan Roadmate devices. The first (a 760) was purchased based upon reviews found here and because I had used the Hertz model that was the basis for the Magellan devices. First device works properly although it took over 3 WEEKS and numerous emails, faxes, and phone calls to... Read full review »
A GPS Worth the Value
The Magellan Roadmate 800 is a nicely priced GPS for those who need to get around. It includes a rechargeable battery and an Mp3 player for listening to music while driving. Another additional feature is picture viewing. The Magellan 800 can hold up to 5 gb of pictures or music, pretty spacey. For... Read full review »
