 GPS Purchase November 22, 2008
Amazon actually supplied more in this kit than was advertised. The unit and accessories all appeared brand new. I was able to get an extended warranty through SquareTrade. Overall this was an exceptional deal.
 magrllan gps November 22, 2008
The magelan 4250 gps is excellent. After learning how to use the machine, I had very little problems with programming the various destinations. The only negative aspect about the refurbished GPS is that the maps are out of date. They are approximately two years old. I contacted Magellan and they told me I would have to purchase an update at a cost of $79.95. My feelings were that since they refurbished the unit, it should have current maps.

Fair Price and Product November 21, 2008
I am first time user who read as many reviews as I could to see which one would fit both my need and finance. I have tried to compare and contrast and finally decided to pick Magellan 4250. Of course, the price was so attractive and placed the order. When it arrived, it was mailed a kind of brand new Magellan with all the accessories which I was not aware of it. Wow! That was cool. The accessories cost almost half of the price I paid for the Magellan. I opened it right away and found its friendly-use so good and hit the road without doing anything and found it works!!! Well, so far I have been using it and have no problem at all. For $129.00 this is a great buy. One minor problem I have so far is, it sometimes get confused when conversation takes place and reminds you to say a command when you actually did not even send a voice command. I just want to let you know that the voice command works great but it sometimes might make you speak a little louder; for $129.00 buy, let Magellan be a deaf once in a blue moon. I hope I don't mean to be generous to give 4 stars but, I am convinced it deserves.
My First GPS November 19, 2008
I purchased the referb Magellan Maestro 4250, great price. I read reviews of others and decided to go with the 4250. The unit worked great for a day then stopped !!! I checked the website and D/L the firmware upgrade and installed it, no problems with the upgrade install. The unit has performed very well. I have a 90 day free traffic alert but so far I havn't needed it. The routes it calculates are pretty good. You may know a quicker shortcut but this will get you where you want to go. Double check the ST address, the unit is so-so on left or right side of the street. It recalculates directions quickly if you miss a turn or change plans. The female voice pronounces st names better than I would. Over all I am very happy with it and recommend it. This is my 1st GPS and I use it more than I thought I would.
