I am one of those who do not use to believe in reviews since it depends on each's perception but off late I have been using review forums and have ended up on the right products. So I felt it is my obligation to return the favour. I bought this unit M 4040 from amazon (Refurbished). It came very quickly and started using it without any issues:
PROS:
1. Excellent Satellite reception inside my house and also I keep my GPS near my Gear box and do not have any problem with the reception.
2. No freezing at all at any point.

Rating: - DO NOT BUY!! Bluetooth not working, wrong maps etc....
Such a waste of time...
First of all, the bluetooth is not working with all our phones and it's coming from this specific Magellan GPS unit, as all phones bluetooth work well.
But the worth part, the map is not accurate and the GPS sent us several times in the wrong direction, always a pleasure when it's late at night and you are travelling far from home, looking for your hotel with your kids...

I will never take a trip without this again. It is the most valuable tool you can have in an area you are unfamilar with.
I bought the refurbished unit because it was very inexpensive. It came with every attachment I need, the mounts, plus wall and car chargers.
As it was a refurbished unit the maps were 2006 versions. I ordered the 2007/2008 map upgrade. It was difficult to install the maps, but now the unit is up to date and still was a bargin.
Rating: - Great deal at the price
This GPS navigator proved easy to use quick to lock onto the satellites, quick to recalculate (often finished before we reached the end of the block after making a wrong turn!).
The voice instructions were very helpful, but the bell when the turn is reached could have come a bit sooner.
The maps are a little out of date, lacking some very recent changes, but this wasn't a big deal for me.
For under $150, this is a completely satisfactory gadget!
