User Reviews about Magellan RoadMate 1424 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator

This is a great product. This is the second one purchased and all the drivers in the household love it. -- Magellan RoadMate 1424 Review

I bought this for my husband who, in typical male fashion, never would ask for directions. Now he uses it for going everywhere, even to the corner store. I find it generally accurate but sometimes a bit confusing on the north and south directions ie; if you want to enter a highway going south but have to turn to the north to do so, Magellan says to turn north instead of just saying "right turn in xxx feet". We've both learned to listen for the bell signifying a turn. Looking forward to using it on our cross country next summer. -- Driving Around in Circles!!!!

I have used the GPS (Magellan Roadmate 1424) once since I received it and it did well; however, it would be better if there was a choice of male or female voices.
John (Tom) -- My Comments regarding the GPS I recently purchased from Amazon.

Been using this unit for about 2 weeks. It works very well over all but needs a bit of fine tuning. When approaching side roads or streets there seems to be a lag of about 20 feet (perhaps a slightly slow CPU), making it possible to miss a turn in a crowded intersection.

Also there is no voice that says "re-computing"(as with my daughter's Garmin) when deviating from the instructed route while in directions mode.

Otherwise an excellent unit in every way and preferred over the Garmin 205W.

Will update in about 1 month. -- Excellent overall But
