Summary: Good GPS but useless with no power
Comment: Last year I decided to but my wife a GPS for her car. This isn't my first GPS. I already have an automotive one in my car, multiple hand held units along with older units datting back to 1992. I also use one on a daily basis Geocaching.
About the GPS:
Pros: Touch screen and easy to use with clear instructions.
Cons: It's size is a little larger then most of todays units. The cradle isn't very solid. The battery in the unit went down hill from day 1. Only 6 months after installation and very little use the power connection inside the unit just died. The GPS was treated very well and it just died. It now sits all by itself on the shelf waiting for me to repair it or thrown into the electronics recycle pile. I would not purchase one of these units due to the power and battery issue.

Summary: Buy another
Comment: I've had the Magellan Roadmate 2000 for about 3 years. As far as working its not bad. It takes getting used to and sometimes it routes me ways I know are wrong. If your returning from a route you just had in the unit. It sometimes takes you in a completely different way home. The thing that galls me the most is I've waited for a map update for the last two years. Now that they have one they want 79.00 plus shipping to ship me a CD to update. I don't expect free updates forever, but give me one! I can buy a refurbished Magellan 2000 or a tom tom for the same money as the update.I will not buy another magellan product period.

Summary: Don't buy
Comment: Magellan Customer service is the worst customer service I have ever dealt with. They offer a free 30 day map update since all of their products ship with out of date maps. This would be a good thing except it is in the fine print of their products and their customer support email address that their website list is the wrong address. I had to get through to their customer service by posting a bad review on their website. By the time they responded my unit was beyond the 30 day limit and they refused to give me the update. This is a bad business practice. Garmin has a 60 day guarantee which is posted directly on their website in plain view.
