| jrtexas's Full Review: Magellan RoadMate 300 Car GPS Receiver |
Software loaded without a hitch and I was able to create a map region in just a few minutes. I also loaded the RM300 with addresses and set the user options from the PC software.
Didn't use the device until the SD card arrived (free! and delivery in 3 days). Installed the SD card, attached the unit to the windshield and powered it on. It found the satellites and located itself almost immediately.
Tried a couple of trips in our general area and the RM300 worked fine. The screen is large enough and works pretty well in the sunlight. The voice instructions are clear and understandable although I would prefer a physical volume control. The windshield attachment works extremely well. In fact, it's hard to remove from the windshield.
All in all, I'm quite pleased with the RM300. For the price ($399 at Target with a $50 Target card, thrown in) I think it's a great bargain.
