 | Magellan Meridian 16 MB GPS with 16-Color LCD Display | |
 | "Serious Navigation Tool" | 2007-02-20 |
| This is the best hand-held GPS. It is upgradable with new maps which you won't find on some others. The color screen is easy to read, bright and dims easily to save power. All in all, it fits the bill for the serious traveler. This powerful tool actually asists you in navigating your own route, far prefereable for my liking than others which tell you which way to go. I like to make choices, and I have experienced more direct routes and discovered many roads and foot routes less traveled all over the US and Europe with the assistance of this wonderful device. I have discovered marvelous places with my Magellan -- places only the locals know. I have used my Magellan Meridian Color GPS for three years, and I can't imagine how it can be improved upon. I consider it indespensible for traveling. Works great in the car, and then you can take it with you on foot, train or bus. If you apply yourself to learning how to use this device it will increase your satisfaction in traveling and knowledge of your surroundings. | ||

 | "Great Products -- Customer Support Stinks!" | 2006-03-08 |
| I am very happy with my Meridian Color and the other mapsend products I have purchased, however, at first I couldnt get this product to work. I had no problem getting this software to run with XP (even without the patch), however I couldnt view the basemap I had loaded onto my Magellan. I tried to address this with the company. It has been three days now and they have not even returned my emails. Customer service for this product is nonexistant. I joined the Yahoo message board and got a simple answer to my question in about four hours someone posted the answer. Turns out I just had to go to the Menu -- Card Utilities and maunually select the basemap. I did not know that basemaps dont change automaticaly like the detailed maps do. I cannt say enough great things about my experience with my magellan meridian color though. Navigating through Hungary like a pro, I didnt miss a single turn. I would never recommend any of their products to someone who isnt willing or doesnt have the aptitude to learn about it. The Magellan Meridian series is in my opinion the finest product on the market for what it does, portability it provides and is 100 percent upgradable with new software and new maps. Get you head out of your a__ Thales. You have some great products, but you are blowing your customer support base with non existant customer support. I recommend anyone with a question about softward or the GPS join the yahoo groups and post the question there. Dont waste your time with customer support. | ||

 | "Check out Magellan Meridian Color" | 2004-12-06 |
| I was shopping for a GPS last year. I did a lot of research and considered this one, but ultimately decided upon the Meridian Color by Magellan. In my opinion the Meridian Color is a superior product with superior software, and it retails for about half the cost of the Garmin. I have used the Meridian Color in the US and in Europe and am very happy with my purchase. I would urge you to at least check out the Meridian Color before buying the Garmin. | ||
