The 3000T features a sleek and compact design for optimum portability. A large touch screen and buttons offer access to key features and the universal configuration gives easier access to buttons whether you're right or left handed. The unit tracks up to 12 GPS satellites simultaneously and uses the high performance SiRF Star III solution for optimal signal acquisition. It's also WAAS enabled, further enhancing positioning accuracy.
Lightweight and completely portable, the 3000T is easily transferred from one vehicle to another, so you can take it with you wherever you go. The built-in rechargeable battery lets you continue routing or listen to music or view pictures when unplugged, and its compact size and light weight enable you to easily take it with you on business trips or vacations. Vehicle installation couldn't be easier; choose from a selection of mounting accessories, plug in the power cord, and you are ready to turn it on and go.
The Magellan RoadMate 2200T features a SiRF Star III GPS chipset and comes preloaded with maps of the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. To start navigation, you can enter a specific street address, an intersection, or a POI or select an entry from the Address Book. The latter holds up to 250 addresses and can include a street address, a point on the map, a POI, or an intersection. Like much of the RoadMate series, the 2200T has the QuickSpell feature, which helps speed up the process of text entry. As you start to punch the numbers and letters of an address into the virtual keyboard, QuickSpell dims out any characters that don't match any of the city or streets located in the system's database. It's really handy and worked well during our test period.

Meanwhile, the TrueView 3D function offers a detailed, enlarged view of the road layout for upcoming turns and information about intersection maneuvers.

Route optimization is a breeze with the 3000T. Let the unit guide you on an optimized trip with several destinations. First, use the Trip Planner to enter addresses or select points of interest (POI). You choose the order or let Route Optimization feature calculate the quickest route between each point from your present location. Add and subtract destinations as you go, and save your Trip to repeat the same route again.
When traffic slows or stops on the freeway, SmartDetour will automatically calculate a detour and ask you if you'd like to route around the congestion. You can turn the feature on and off, or personalize the settings for the maximum distance you'd like to detour. You may also choose to detour anytime by touching the enter button while you are in an active route, even on city streets to route around road work, closed roads, flooded streets or stopped traffic. Whenever you decide to take a detour or go off course, your Magellan RoadMate automatically calculates a new route as you drive.
Add the Magellan TrafficKit to receive live traffic incident reports that appear on the dynamic touch screen map. Touch an onscreen icon to view detailed information about the incident. You can also automatically reroute around accidents, slow-downs, road work, severe weather conditions and more. The TrafficKit service will be available in the Summer of 2006 and it will require a subscription. And last but not least, a touch of a button shows the information about your present location so you can easily direct emergency services and roadside assistance to you. Or, save this location to your address book to easily route back to it later.
