Manufacturer description

Designed for simple, efficient and reliable vehicle navigation, the affordable Magellan RoadMate 1200 series offers full navigation function and an amazingly easy and uncluttered interface. Unlike other navigation devices with complicated lists that require scrolling through menus you can find virtually anywhere in seconds without reading the instructions. The 3.5" color touch screen provides instant access to navigation features. Exclusive QuickSpell technology searches available destinations and corrects spelling so you can enter addresses and select points of interest with just a few touches of the screen. Sleek, thin, rugged and compact, it's easy to take your Magellan RoadMate 1200 series with you wherever you travel. The integrated rechargeable battery provides up to 3 hours of navigation when power is unavailable. Maps of the 48 contiguous United States, Puerto Rico and Hawaii are included on a pre-loaded SD memory card. 1.3 million pre-programmed points of interest make it easy to select gas stations, restaurants, ATM's, hotels and more, and get an instant route. Turn-by-turn voice directions and customizable routing methods guide you on the most direct or quickest route to any destination. Choose to travel by least or most freeways, avoid toll roads, or exclude streets from your route. The convenient tow truck icon gives you your precise position for easy communication when in need of rescue. Travel around town or to unfamiliar cities without the need to call for directions and be where you want to be when you want to Be There.
