| This program is easy and works pretty good. Could be better with some better waypoint features. |
I find that it works.

In reading the other reviews it appears that most folks are having a problem with the MapSend software. I use V4.0 with my Meridian Color and while I find the track vs. road display could be improved, actual location of map generated waypoints to actual destinations is within about 50 to 100 ft. I've tried this at some 12 different and very specific road intersections where there could be no error in the location. Using the Lat/Lon numbers generated by the map, the GPS came within 0.008 of a degree. This equates to an error of some 100 ft or less. I find that the actual width of the road can contribute this amount of error.
The product is old and has been discontinued by the company. It was inexpensive but does work. I'm just not sure what others had expected. |
Biggest piece of DOG DOO DOO I've ever purchased!

My daughter bought a Magellan GPSr. The hardware's features were great! Since I own a Garmin V, I thought she might have out-skunked the old man. That was right up until we tried to find map software for this GPS. (The base map is ok if you like traveling interstate routes without street detail for cities.) So, what good is a GPS without map software? Generally USELESS! We bought MAPSEND Streets & Destinations USA. Thank the lord I only spend $39.00 on it. Good for the seller, bad for me. I should have recognize the clues when there was NOT a "Streets & Destinations USA" version for sale on the Magellan home page. (hint, hint, hint)
I HAVE VERSION V4.00F. THE MAPS ARE SO OUT OF DATE THEY CAN ONLY BE USED FOR BASIC STREET NAVIGATION. MANY POIs DON'T EXIST ANYMORE AND IN SOME CASES THE ACCURACY IS SO BAD STREET CROSSROADS ARE OFF BY HUNDREDS OF FEET.
Do not waste your money on Magellan products unless they get their mapping software FIXED and stop ripping off their customers.
