    "Finally, a real all in one unit that is affordable"

    by GPS4ME on September 15, 2006

    Pros: Compact, size with large display, vehicle nav with Topo and more

    Cons: Lacks Bluetooth, MP4 and games

    Summary: This unit tested out great, brighter display screen and faster processor with the familiar Magellan user interface. Audio quality is great also.
    Most Magellan and Hertz customers along with first time GPS users will love this unit user interface.
    You can go hiking, snowmobiling, Geocaching, 4 wheeling if you are adventurous, and use it like a high dollar GPS vehicle navigation system during the week. This unit includes text to speech and NavTeq map software.
    This is about as good as it gets till the MRM 2500 is available, then you will be using it on a boat and more...
    I think this unit currently is the best value for a GPS unit that is under $500 price range. Nothing comes close to it, not the TomTom ONE nor the Garmin C330.
    Not saying the Garmin and TomTom is not as good, but for the money, the MRM 2200 size and processing speed along with the text to speech feature is just a little better.
    Yes, I been using and testing this MRM 2200 unit for a while now and I don't work for Magellan.

    I found this unit while researching my intended purchase: a Tom Tom. I had been with my friend navigating in Dallas with the Tom Tom and thought, "I need one of these".
    After reviewing technology and price I decided the Magellan 2200T would be best, and I'm glad I bought it.
    Even better, I purchased it on EBay without the box, but new for $299.00 including UPS ground shipping! Wow! What fun...
    Drawbacks: some newer streets (including my own) aren't listed.
    Benefits: I don't look like an idiot when I travel to other areas of the country.
    Bottom Line: buy some kind of GPS if you like to explore, buy this one if you don't win the lottery.
