Not happy
I bought Magellan RoadMate 700 Vehicle GPS 2 months back and its not working as expected. its very poor in locating the the place and sometimes don't even work. Many times this sytem got hung and power off and on again is the solution to get it work again.Might this product is very good in market, but I got the bad piece.
Great (when it is working)
I had the garmin 2610 and the magellan 700, The 700 is very easy to use and much easier to veiw. With the 2610 it will sometimes lead you the wrong way. The 700 gives you the right directions 99.8% of the time. I liked it very much, but after going through two of them, I returned it and got 2610, Which I have had no problems. Both of the magellan unit failed, one about a day after I got it. The other one lasted about two weeks, I gave up and got a 2610. The more I use it, the more I like it.
Dud
I spent days trying to get the system to find the satellite signal and it would not work. Contacting technical support was difficult but I spoke with 2 different people-the second one finally told me it was non-functional and send it back. It was a great disappointment as it was the X-Mas gift for my wife and now she dowsn't want anything to do with one of these duds.John
If you want this buy from someone else
We purchased the Magellan 700 GPS but because of one attempted, and failed, delivery by UPS Amazon canceled our order. Amazon suggested we place another order but in the meantime Amazon jacked the price up $50. Go elsewhere on the web to purchase, don't use Amazon.
Lost Berlin a Great Find
Wonderful photographs and narrative; this book captures the life and spirit of Berlin during its heyday. The final few pages address the emergence of the Nazi influence; other books thus are left to relate the ensuing horror that befell Berlin. One of my favourite Berlin books. Also worth a read are "Before the Deluge" and "Faust's Metropolis", two excellent books which cover Berlin in the 20's and 30's.
The vendor was awesome to deal with. The product however, was terrible.
The quality of the unit was poor, wouldn't read discs properly.Accessories missing from a sealed box, very bad reviews.I should of researched further before buying.
