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.

3200 and 4200 Family of Navigators
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.

Sorry that it doesn't say the name of the street or hwy you are turning on to - sometimes it seems to get confused

Rating: - Comes with 2007 maps
Pros:
Beautiful screen
Easy to use
Big screen
Lots of POI (I like the AAA info that comes with it)

Cons:
Comes with 2007 maps. Even though I purchased it in Aug 2008, Magellan still wanted another $80 to update to 2008/2009 maps.

Does not offer street name announcements (important for me when using it on my motorcycle).

Short battery life of about 3 hours (again, important for motorcycle)

Conclusion:

We just bought the 4210 Magellan GPS a few weeks ago. It is Fantastic. It arrived just in time because we were going on vacation so we used it right away. It took us right to the place we wanted to go and we arrived at our destination at the exact time it said we would. I would recommend a GPS to everyone. Thank You.
