Accuracy 5 Ease of use 5 Durability 4 Cost/Benefit 5 Overall Rating 4.8	Roadmate 3000t review Reviewed by Ron A from WA on 08/03/2006 04:55 pm I first thought the roadmate 3000t would be a very basic model since the price was so low compared to the other models, but wow was I wrong. My Magellan 3000t has everything I could want in a GPS unit and many other things Like MP3 player and Picture View which I will probably never use, but I can brag about having it on there haha. The 3000t was very simple to setup and very easy to use. I was going to get a magellan 700, but when I called AutoNavdirect.com they recommended me to look at the 3000t. I am so glad that they recommended this unit and they really know what they are talking about. I would recommend the magellan roadmate 3000t to anyone and have already got a few of my friends to buy one. Thanks Magellan and AutoNavDirect.com

However, once my wife got her hands on it, I soon realized that she like the 3000t more than I did and she uses it all the time. Now I will be buying another 3000t or I might consider upgrading to the new 6000t that is suppose to be magellans best unit according to what I have read. Either way I am going to stick with magellan as it has been a great unit and I have had no issues with it at all.

This unit really made the whole experience more relaxing and allowed for me to enjoy every min. Now that I have one I really wonder how I got around with out it and why I waited soo long to get one, wait I know.... the price was too high for me, but this new magellan 3000t is priced just right for just about everyone.
Accuracy 4 Ease of use 5 Durability 5 Cost/Benefit 5 Overall Rating 4.8	no summary Reviewed by MackB from Columbia, SC on 06/26/2006 06:27 am My wife purchased the 3000T for me as my first GPS unit ever. We literally pulled it out of the box while in the car traveling to Charleston SC, turned it on and figured it out without any instructions in hand at the time (the manual is on disk). We had the unit up and going and it worked perfect with out any prior knowledge of GPS operations. Magellan made this unit practically idiot proof. When we returned home I started reading the manual and it is amazing what all this little unit will do. The detour feature, the reroute and the multiple destination features are all important features to me. I am pleased we decided on the 3000T as our first GPS. Good job Magellan!!!

It's a great GPS and has nice features. I don't think I will be getting the traffic option available later this summer. It does everything what it advertised to do and always gets me to my destination. Very happy with it.

Reviewed by Paul Melton from Deerfield, IL on 06/12/2006 08:55 pm I got my Roadmate 3000t last week and I have been using it everyday. It's a great little gps with many nice features, some feature like the MP3 player I may never use but I'm glad I got this gps. I really like the map display and it could be easily switched from 2D to 3D view. It's a great gps at a great price.
