 decent, but buggy as an ant farm November 10, 2008

I use this unit on the job where I have to go to multiple addresses, and need to find the most efficient route. This is why I chose this unit: it has a function (trip planner) that allows you to route multiple destinations in the most efficient way possible. This saves me so much time by preventing me from doubling back on myself, etc. You are also able to edit the saved route at any time. It also acquires satellites within seconds. The unit is great, overall, except for a few flaws that cost it two stars on this review. The first star was taken because it freezes up a-la Windows once a week. I don't know why I'm surprised at this, since it's run on Windows CE. There's no way to tell that it has frozen until you notice that it hasn't made any noise or moved its display in a while, at which time you've probably missed a turn or two. The display's refresh rate is pretty slow too, so it's not that noticeable when it freezes. The other star was yoinked because it will plot your route in a very indirect way. For instance, there may be a direct, straight-line route that you can plainly see on the display (if you zoom out a bit), but the unit will direct you in a circle around that straight line. WTF? I have found it prudent to check the route before departing by touching the lower left icon on the map screen so you can decide which directions you want to disregard. This has prevented a great deal of cussing and all around stress while using this GPS.

The Magellen RoadMate 1412 is very easy to operate and extremely accurate. A reliable product at an affordable price.
The good and not so good... October 12, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
After extensive review of lower end gps units with text to speech capability, I purchased this unit. I returned the unit less than one week later after extensive testing in locations I knew well.
It has numerous good points, a few are clear and loud voice, good visibility screen, adjustable voice from main screen, good window mount, prompt return email from customer service, maps remarkably tracked what were basically gravel trails and logging roads near and just off of the North Shore Drive of Minnesota, auto change to night mode on screen, ability to drag the map from the screen to see what's ahead in each direction without zooming out, favorites for locations.
A negative was the POI's were not available for stops that were present in the location of interest, ie, coffee shop in the area wouldn't show up even though there was one in the area. Though that's not what I purchased the unit for.
I obviously did purchase the unit for directions. That's where it repeatedly failed, regardless of which of the four options were chosen, fastest route, shortest route, etc. The unit failed most every time I used the device for navigation. It continually chose indirect, more time consuming and undesirable routes to destinations. I wanted to keep the unit. However, it's a somewhat expensive gps purchase not to be able to use the navigation feature. Maybe the 1412 would perform better in other areas of the country?
