This was going to be my first time on the highway and freeway system. I frantically started looking for a decent GPS unit on my limited budget. I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~216609427076 Thu, 5 Jan 2006 02:28:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_216609427076?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_215924117124?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author kenshar - The Explorist 200 is a waste of money. The North American map is already installed with no way to upgrade it. There are highways missing as well as residential... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~215924117124 Fri, 30 Dec 2005 20:19:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_215924117124?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_212481117828?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gatewaylorrie - The Magellan Explorist 200 is a great starter gps. It features only basic maps, so probably not the best unit for drivers. I does however serve its purpose for geocaching, and other activities. You can store the coordinates where you are heading,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~212481117828 Tue, 29 Nov 2005 13:30:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_212481117828?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_195491827332?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jbradfield - I have been studying various units available to me (other namebrands and other Magellans), borrowing them from friends and squadron mates. I was very pleased that initial acquisition right out of the box took only about five minutes. Have had to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~195491827332 Wed, 7 Sep 2005 15:34:49 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_195491827332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_177896722052?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author howardbruin - Allow me to give some context. My family is not very outdoorsy. My father was a boyscout, and enjoyed the outdoors, but has not actually done much hiking in the last 25 years. My mother's idea of roughing it is going to a cheap hotel. My sole experience... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~177896722052 Sat, 26 Mar 2005 04:59:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_177896722052?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_173292686980?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jdcar_81 - It's mainly for outdoor use I think. It does have the main highways and some major roads on it. I wish it had more, but that might clutter the small screen. I'm not sure I'd want a bigger screen though, because I use it for hiking. It's pretty good... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~173292686980 Sun, 13 Feb 2005 22:21:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_173292686980?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_163435286148?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author chemetiger - I love this little GPS! My family wanted to get into geocaching, so I found one of these on Ebay for $80. OK, the base map is not perfect, updated nor complete, but I didn't buy it for road directions. It's good enough to follow me on major highways... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~163435286148 Thu, 2 Dec 2004 11:44:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_163435286148?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_159492640388?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gatewaylorrie - I recently became interested in geocaching, which requires a gps. So, I purchased this one because of the ability to put in a good number of waypoints(coordinates). There is a very basic map(only main routes), a compass, and comes in a colorful compact... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~159492640388 Mon, 25 Oct 2004 16:42:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_159492640388?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_157117025924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author medicamj - This is one of the best GPS units that I have had the pleasure of using. I have tried the Garmin E-trex series and they may have more features in them but the tracking is lousy. Magellan really put together a fantastic basic gps unit with wonderful... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~157117025924 Fri, 8 Oct 2004 16:19:53 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_157117025924?linkin_id=8003929
