Customer Review: Great GPS with Great value
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had mine for about a mounth now and it is a fantastic little device.
the reason I purchased the GPS is because I was going to be doing a lot of traveling in different states. That little talking screen was a life saver, I mean she lead me right to the door of my Hotel, she found places to eat. And when I say "she" I mean the disembodied Female voice the GPS has. The GPS has a few little Quarks but if one keeps driving on the same road and not making a lot of wild turns she well straghten her self out. Other then that the screen is bright and automatically changes for night driving, the windshield mount is really strong and stable.
So the bottom line is if you need to get somewere and don't like to read maps pick up the Magellan Maestro 4000.
Customer Review: easy to use and helpful tool

I just purchased the Magellan Maestro 4000 GPS, which I found refurbished, with everything included that a new one would have, for one third of the price. I found it very easy to operate, and very helpful on a recent trip from Portland to Eureka and back. I also use it for my work assignments, as I am sent to various different locations every week. I am now using less paper and ink for printing google maps. I also found a good deal on amazon for the GPS Nav-Pack -WEIGHTED Dash Mount Carrying Case- which is great. I hesitated to permantently mount the unit to my dash, and this "Nav-Pack" sits solidly on the dash, and can be stashed out of site in the padded case in seconds. I am very happy with both of these purchases, and highly recommend them.Customer Review: Awesome

This is a great buy..... You can't beat the pricing on this one..... Don't listen to the other reviews...... Mine has never froze up like one of the reviews was saying... Must have been a factory defect... Which the 3 year factory warranty would have covered it anyway... If they would have just called them and sent it back I'm sure they would have replaced it.... I'm not sure if the other person who gave a review even knows how to correctly work theirs.... They said there wasn't many POI's and there is over 1 million POI's "points of interest" Like wineries and tourist hot spots..... Plus they update them regularly via satellite.... So ignore the bad reviews....... You will be pleased with this item.... The icons are so cool......Customer Review: Customer Service less than acceptable

This item was ordered from Ritz Camera, I was advised that the order was canceled so ordered from another vendor. After receiving the order I placed with the other vendor, I got an e-mail advising that Ritz had shipped the original order. I was advised on March 14, 2008 that a return authorization had been requested so that I could return the unopened canceled order. I followed up three times since and as of April 24, still have no return authorization. I do not understand how in the day of computer communication how I could have been told both over the phone and via e-mail that the order was canceled and then still have it shipped, even more disturbing is that it would take over 30 days for them to supply a return authorizationCustomer Review: It Does the Job, But.......

A friend owns this model and I had the opportunity to see it in operation. I was impressed. I researched other models with the 4.3 inch screen, and thought them reasonably similar. When I saw the great price, I couldnt resist. My only criticisms are that there appears to be no ability to swap US maps for Europe maps, and more importantly that the US maps are out of date. They claim to be from 2006, but that probably means much data was updated prior to 2005. As a result, for instance, a recent trip found us getting off the express lanes on I271 near Cleveland as directed, only to follow the express lanes in the "local" lanes for the next 20 or so miles! A map update is promied for "early 2008", but it hasn't appeared as of May.
