Can't get better for the money
Pros: Low Cost, window mount, light weight Cons: Non-updateable Maps, older maps, unable to choose male voice Other than the fact that my home built in 2004 and the surrounding streets are not listed on this model, I love it. It is small and easy

"This GPS unit is a piece of garbage!"
After owning two hand held Garmin GPS units that I was very happy with, I decided to buy a GPS unit for my car. And, like an idiot, I bought the Magellan Road Mate 2000 because it was on sale. Big mistake. This piece of trash has been nothing but
PROS: I have nothing good to say about this hunk of junk!
CONS: Junk! Reboots frequently. Easily confused. Slow .

"The technical support for this companty is terrible"

PROS: unit is ok-when working-but hope against all odds that you do not have to send it in for repair
CONS: I have waited 2 hrs on phone for tech support
