Amazon.com Product Description -- November 13, 2007
We've been big fans of Magellan's Maestro line since it came out in early 2006. The Maestro interface is incredibly easy to use, even for those who are not completely comfortable with electronics. At the same time, Magellan was ahead of the industry with useful innovations like multi-destination routing and pre-loaded reviews for points of interest like hotels and restaurants (from AAA). With it's 3200 and 4200 series, Magellan has improved the Maestro line giving them a SirfStar III chipset that provides super-fast. satellite lock and making them thinner. In fact, at .7 inches, these are -- at the time of this writing (November 2007), the thinnest portable GPS navigators available.
Distingushing between models is also fairly easy. The 3200-series navigators feature a 3.5-inch screen, while the 4200s have a 4.3-inch widescreen display. The 3200 and 4200 offer great, basic navigation with turn-by-turn spoken directions, pre-loade maps of the 48 contiguous United States, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, and 1.3 million POIs. The 3210 and 4210, add maps for Canada and Alaska, AAA travel information (see details below) and bump you up to 6 million POIs. The 3220 and 4220 add maps of Mexico. The top-of-the-line 3250 and 4250 add a host of other features, including text-to-speech directions that give real street names, bluetooth for hands-free phone calls, integrated traffic (with a free 3-month subscription), and voice command.
What Makes the Maestro 3200 Exceptional?

Use the big icons on the 3.5-inch touch screen to search for your destination by address, intersection, or any of 1.3 million points of interest (POIs), including restaurants, hotels, airports, gas stations, and more. You can even touch an onscreen icon for a nearby destination, see name and address, and get an instant route. Turn by turn visual and spoken directions guide you every step of the way.
Auto re-route gets you quickly back on track whenever you make a detour or miss a turn. QuickSpell feature intelligently searches and checks spelling when you enter addresses.

 Very basic, very good August 8, 2008
X. Cheng
I bought the Magellan 3200 a couple of months ago and I'm happy to say that I'm very satisfied with its performance. I owned a Garmin c340 prior to buying the Magellan and the Magellan simply outperforms the Garmin in many aspects.
PROS:
1) Startup Time - The 3200 starts up in under 10 seconds. The initial satellite lock-on time is under a minute. Most of times, if you're at the same place you turned off the unit, the lock-on time is under 30 seconds. However, if you turned the unit off and took a plane across the country, it takes a bit longer to get the initial lock-on.
2) Signal Strength - I have never lost reception with the 3200. Although to be fair, I've also never driven into a tunnel or deep into an underground parking garage.
3) Recalculation time - I have missed my turns lots of times, either on purpose or by accident. The 3200 can handle most of them pretty well. I've only experienced one time where the unit told me to make a u-turn because it can't figure out any other way to get to my destination.
4) GUI - The UI is very clean. The type to display response time is very good (<1 second). I love the way 3200 takes away the letters as you type and suggests the city/street before you finish typing the whole thing.
CONS:
1) Calculated Route - Sometimes you need to double check what it gives you. I would say 95% of the time, the route is probably good enough. It doesn't have traffic capability, so you might use some common sense when it gets to rush hour. However the other 5% of the time, you'll get a route that blows you out of the water. It'll add an extra 100 mile onto your route when you're just driving to the next city for some dinner. I don't know what prompts these errors, but usually you can spot it.
5) "North" & "South" - I don't know if this is Magellan's way of getting you to pay for the more expensive units, but half the time, the unit won't tell you if you're suppose to get onto the freeway in the NORTH or SOUTH direction via text-to-speech. The screen still displays the N/S, but it just won't pronounce it. So whenever you're getting onto the freeway, you have to sneak a peek at the display to figure it out.
Overall, I would highly recommend this product if you're looking for an entry level GPS unit with text-to-speech function. It lacks some bells and whistles that the other more expensive units have, but hey, as long as I get to where I need to be, I'm a happy camper.

Good product but the battery life sucks. If you don't have a power outlet in your car/truck it's not worth it.
So easy a kid can do it August 7, 2008

This product is so easy to use, my kids program it and help me navigate
our road trips. My 11yr old daughter has preprogramed it already for our
trip to San Diego in a few weeks. I was really happy to have it recently when i was upstate on a back road and unsure of the local back way to my sons camp, he was able to plug us in and get directions, and it was very
accurate. Very good product for the money.
 Good price. great product July 21, 2008

I bought this unit a few weeks ago because I was going to a wedding on the other side of the state,and I have no sense of direction.I was concerned that I would get lost in the middle of nowhere.
So,never having used a GPS device before,I read reviews and decided on this one.
I'm very glad I got it.I got to and from the wedding worry-free.
The screen is very bright and colorful,and the"voice" is clear and loud enough to hear with the top down on my Jeep.
The set-up took about two minutes.After the co-ordinates were established from my house,I programmed the address of the wedding,and it mapped out the route clearly and easily.
I have since used it to see if it ever messes up,but so far it has not.
I really like this thing.I love all things electronic,but,living on a retirees budget,I had to get the best I could for the money I could spend.And I did,and I love it!!

Magellan Maestro 3200 is a great GPS. It worked right out of the box and had less menus to get through to tell it where you want to go. Just need to trust the little system and listen to the directions. Very easy. Also easy to adjust to shortest distance, fastest time, or no highways or no toll boths. really easy to work with and see what is coming up.
Would recommend to a beginner for a GPS. Points of Interest were really fun as well! Can search by name or category.. never failed on our trip to NC then on to Myrtle Beach.
