Magellan RoadMate 2000 GPS Navigation System (Refurbished)

Rating

This product was great. I was disappointed when I realized the map was from 2005. We paid to have the map updated. It still cost less than purchasing it from somewhere else. We did have some technical problems that were handled swiftly by tech support.

Recieved Road Mate 2000 In October, 2008. Loved the ease of use and the way it gave directions to and from destinations. A month later it would not track satelites and current location was stuck on one place. I am going to try returning it for repair. St Helena, Ca.

The Megellan RoadMate 2000 is a great device for those who wish to find an address quickly and easily. The Points of Interest selection (i.e. restaurants, gas stations, etc.) is excellent. However there are limitations that may cause you to think twice about buying this product. The first and foremost limitation is that the Megellan RoadMate 2000 does NOT allow you to search a destination by entering coordinates. This is a very important to some businesses such as mine (surveyors, engineers, etc.) It also should make any Geocacher cringe!!! This is partially why I bought this product, so I definately lost out. Another limitation is that there is an icon for "Region". When I checked on this icon at the Magellan website I found out the the Megellan RoadMate 2000 does not have this capability, which begs the question, "Why does the product have the icon if it can't be used?. The good news about the Magellan website is that at least on the occasion I called (a Friday afternoon), the support team was right on the ball. No waits. I first entered a few buttons after calling and figured "Oh, great, I'll never get hold of anyone", but I was wrong. They answered my questions and were quick to help and were very friendly. That in itself might be worth the money! The phone number is listed on the websight.

I bought this because I travel alot for work, usually to places Ive never been-and it has been so helpful! It gets you where you need to be in the fastest time, taking you through backroads if neccessary, roads that I would normally be too afraid to try for fear of getting lost. I great buy and traveling is so much more enjoyable without havig to deal with the stress of getting lost!
