I tried out “the baby brother” to this one, The Magellan RoadMate 2000. I found the 2000 to be VERY good! But, the 2000 will NEVER be able to be used in Europe! The maps don’t fit it and never will! I was told, however, that European maps WILL be made available at “some future time” for this GPS, the 2200T. The “problem” is that the person at Magellan could not tell me “when”. So, I gave this GPS ONE STAR originally. But, then I decided to change it to FIVE STARS with the caveat that Magellan gets the European Maps ready soon. Otherwise, “it’s back to ONE STAR for this baby again!”

PS: Actually, even though the Garmin C530 doesn’t have “voice recognition of streets” I prefer the Garmin C530 because what you see on the screen is easier to read as you drive—all the information you need is in BIG LETTERS on top with the Garmin’s—this one has lighter lettering and the information is on the lower 3rd of the screen and is fainter than the Garmin.

Regardless of what you think of the electronics, consider for a moment that you are about to spend several hundred dollars on a relatively complicated piece of electronic equipment that has several menu layers. Perhaps, the manufacturer would like you to believe that you don’t need a manual, but my position is that it should be YOUR choice. As a consumer, if you buy a piece of electronics you have a reasonable right to expect a manual.
Should you talk the time to call support, they will tell you they are sorry and send you to the website to print one. Of course, you better have a color laser printer, as it is 56 pages. Then should you want to keep it in your car where it could actually provide value, please keep in mind that that is 56 pages on 8½” x 11″ paper.
Very disappointing that they felt the need to cut corners in this way.

I am very happy with my GPS system. I am the type of person who never knows where I am going and that doesn’t bother me. But when it comes time to go home I want to get there quickly. My GPS helps me get home.

If you like what Hertz has in their rental cars, you’ll find this easier to use and better with the same voice.
