 My 3rd GPS and my favorite so far August 11, 2008

This is my 3rd GPS and I believe it's my favorite to date. It does give you the elevation of your location and the way you get to that is to tap on the "tow truck". I like that feature, especially since I live in the mountains. If you need to charge the battery while in your house, you can use the USB cable from your camera (I have a CANON). Once you connect the USB to your computer, hold the on/off button down and turn it off. It will charge the battery even when it's off. I like the way it recalculates my new route quickly. The speech is very clear for street names and turns. I get multiple satellites even in the house in a matter of seconds. My wife is hard of hearing and likes the chimes best of the 3 choices. She also likes the way it fills in while she's typing a street name or a city. Another feature she likes is how she can name a trip and make it a favorite. We couldn't do it with our Honda GPS and that aggravated her to no end. We did order a stylus for her because she has long nails and the stylus works just as well. We purchased a $5 camera bag from Big Lots and it fits the GPS perfectly. We stuck the stylus in the net pocket on the side of the camera bag. Fits fine. Hope this review helps.

This is an excellent GPS navigator for the money. I got mine for $149 with $50 coupon from Costco. Get it if you only want a simple operating naviagtion system without the frills such as Bluetooth, MP3, traffic, etc. It is very quick and excellent for getting you to where you want to go. It is also very easy to operate.
Got this one [...]...Love it!!! June 13, 2008

[...] The first piece I got, I was very frustrated with it. I couldn't get it to work...good thing it has the graphic display to show which/how many satellites are locked in. Mine didn't have any locked in to the GPS. I realized immediately that the product was defective and I got it replaced the next day.
I love the feature to set the GPS location manually (through "user options"). So sometimes when you turn it on, at far distant place from where you turned it off, the GPS will know approximately where you are so that it can lock in with the satellites quickly. It is a great feature.
I also like the screen size...the beep before each turn and the 6 million POIs. I also like the feature that when a bifurcation appears on freeway, it tells you to stay on the road with the name. I have used some GPS which just tells you to stay on the road (without the name) and it is confusing because I could have already jumped onto the lane which is about to merge onto some other freeway.
I haven't used the trip planner...I'll update my reviews someday when I use it.

I purchased a Roadmate 1412 just before fathers day at Costco. It was on of there weekly summer specials. My wife and I went on vacation in the White Mountains of Arizona and the Gila Mountains of New Mexico> As a 1st time used of a GPS Ms. Magellan as my wife and I call "her" was spectacular. She now only told where to turn on the highways and paved roads she also knew the forest roads and even the location my 4-Runner was relative to a FR location. I fell in love. Called my son and he went a purchase on before the sale was over. Now I am purchasing one for my wifes Subaru Outback. I rate this a 5 and it is a very inexpensive unit.
1412 Excellence July 8, 2008

Just installed the Magellan RM1412 and used it on a 725 mile round trip. Voice was excellent and instructions were right on, even in Chicago, where the new exways are really multiple! Could have listened to my human navigator but chose Magellan instead and it got me through the city and around the city, using two different routes. It worked flawlessley. Didn't even have the exact destination address and it got me to within sight of the house we were looking for in St. Charles, Il. I now have two of these 1412's. Also have a TomTom Rider I use on my motorcycle and it's a pain to use in the car. The 1412 car mounts(suction) work just fine. Well worth the money. Programming is somewhat time consuming (sound for POIs). Overall highly recommend.
