Magellan RoadMate 1412 Portable GPS

Here's what I like about the new Magellan RoadMate 1412 portable GPS navigator: everything. The 4.3" color screen is just the right size for a portable GPS, while the mounting system is both secure and easy to release. Despite the ultra-thin compact size, it contains maps of the entire U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico, along with 6 million POIs including food, fuel, lodging, ATMs, and hundreds of other businesses and services. The text-to-speech feature, which calls out street names for upcoming turns, can be really handy in congested urban areas. A QuickSpell feature speeds data entry, as does the fact that destinations can be designated by zip code as well as by spelling out cities.
