Magellan RoadMate 1430 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Traffic Top Quality


SO I have been on the hunt for the best traffic. and this isn't it. I had the DASH express which was internet connected, and it was so good that it is hard to compare. (I didnt like how big it was and had bad graphics, but the traffic was spot on!)

Anyhow, this can tell you when there is traffic... when you are in it!

Great. I want to go from A to B and it gives me the route assuming no traffic, and as you turn on the ramp and are in bumper to bumper it says " you are in traffic". Geez Thanks buddy. Oh, do I want to reroute, where? To more traffic? How does that route compare to this route??? unknown.

SO basically real traffic is just a feature bullet point, but isnt real yet.

Gonna be returning this and keeping my tom tom 140.

Also I dont get widescreen. Sounds good in the ads, I guess that is why people buy it. But it takes up more room and obstructs your view and is completely unnecessary.

Also the # of button presses to get anything done, is about 2x vs TomTom. And the mapping was much worse. With the TT I know about 200 yards away from a traffic circle, this one about 75.Get more detail about Magellan RoadMate 1430 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Traffic.
