Magellan Roadmate 1440 Portable GPS with 6 Million POIs

Solid choice for 1st time gps unit   Review Date: September 4, 2010 Reviewer: FSJ, Bay Area, California Easy to use, good battery life, spoken street names, solid construction. It is above average in all main areas of gps usage. Not just depending on reviews here on Amazon, I turned to Consumers Report and this unit (excluding ultra expensive ones) had above average rating on all major features of a gps unit. At the price it was a no brainer to get it. I'm not going to use it everyday. Just on special trips. Works great. Read More Reviews - Click Here
