| Magellan Maestro 4040. |
Maps are pretty accurate and the "mobilty" of the device a nice extra. Really like the blue tooth feature - works great with my all the families cell phones. Whenever we go somewhere as a family its a race to see which cell phone gets connected to the hands free feature of the 4040...
A good product - excellent value for money. |

| Navigate away from Magellan |
Well after having a Garmin 330 for many years, I decided to grab this Magellan, since I wanted the bluetooth speaker phone. I got a refurb for $99 which seemed like a steal. Having the bigger screen was great and the speakerphone is now a must have on my next unit. That was about it for the good stuff.
The interface is not as intuitive as Garmin and it took a long time to route and reroute. Unfortunately, I only had the unit for a month. The suction cup let go and the screen cracked when it hit the floor. (The Garmin made this fall about 50 times without a scratch)
Magellan Customer Support/ Tech Support is atrocious. After talking to Customer Support for 10 minutes they finally transferred me to tech support where I explained the issue and was promptly put on hold for 25 minutes. They returned to informed me that they do not cover or repair screen cracks. If I sent in the unit they would sell me a refurb 4250 for $140. Not a deal because I found them online for $130. Magellan was a big disappointment, I would steer clear... Back to Garmin for me. |

| great gps! |
This Gps is great. Does what it should and provide directions for where you want to go. Nice screen size, easy to use, very intuitive. I also like the bluetooth feature for your phone. I like how I was able to find Costco for my wife and have it mapped for her so she wouldn't get lost. I enjoy the home feature too, so you can always find your way back no matter where you are or if your in a city at night and don't know the streets. Super price as well for a refurbished unit.
The only thing I would wish for is to have different voices for directions. |

| Great GPS |
| The Maestro 4040 is a fine GPS receiver that has an accurate map database, extensive POI database, AAA Tourbook data, and a fast and accurate routing engine. I own the Maestro 4040, a Maestro 3100, and a Tom Tom One. Both Magellans are superior to the Tom Tom in map accuracy, POI content and accuracy, and logic of operation. The Magellan units and the Tom Tom One will get you where you need to go, but the Magellans do the job better. |
