Rating: - Good GPS system but not without glitches
I have been using this system for about a year now and have found it to be easy and fast to use. I use it at least 5 times a day with my job and have noticed the maps are dated. I also have a garmin nuvi200 and the Roadmate3000t seems quicker and easier to set a destination. I did a software update about 3 months ago and ever since the unit seems to just freeze up randomly as I drive around. It takes a hard reboot the get the unit responsive again. The free months of traffic service worked well but had quite a few false traffic alerts. I recently left the unit in my vehicle on a 105 degree ... Read More

Rating: - Very disappointing, lousy tech support, stay away!
This RoadMate 3000T is my third Magellan product I've owned and by far THE most disappointing. I've come to expect good, high-quality products like my original GPS 315 from Magellan that still perform excellently many years since I first purchased it.
In this particular case, not only did the 3000T come with old maps, but it frequently "locks up" making the product unusable. Its an obvious defect that I expected Magellan would handle professionally, courteously, and without hassle. Unfortunately, my experience thus far has been nothing but a hassle just to get a simple warranty ... Read More
Rating: - Magellan Roadmate 3000T worked great
I read some other reviews before I purchased this product and since owning it I have made a few observations of my own. First the navigation system will only be as good as the map which the unit contains. We all know that they are always working on and adding new roads so to keep the accuracy the map must be upgraded. Megellan has a new one hopefully coming out in September. Secondly the user must know and understand how to use the GPS. It is not hard but you must understand it. If you type something incorrectly you will get an incorrect response. Some people said they did not like the buttons around ... Read More
Rating: - Good when working and bad customer services
I got the device like month ago. It works for about 2 weeks then the system freezes and reset the device didn't make it to work. However, I have to agree that it works well in first 2 weeks. The device is little bigger than regular same 3.5 LCD devices. The physical button makes the device a plus.
I called the customer service and ask for a replacement and they promised me to ship the device out on next business day. so I called them again after 2 days, and you know what, the device still hadn't been shipped yet. I talked to another supervisor there and the guy makes the promise again to ... Read More
