Very Good Compared with Garmin eTrex Vista
| I purchased Magellan MAP 330X two years ago. That one was working really fine. But because its design was not as cute as I would expect, I sold it off eBay one year ago. Then I was searching for a replacement one, and it was found to be Garmin eTrex Vista. So I purchased it and used it during the 2002 Christmas vacation in California. To my much disappointment, it is really quite inferior to MAP330. The only reason I bought it was it it looks cute, easy to fit my pocket. However, on technically side, there are many problems. After making painfully decision, I decide to sell it and buy back the MAP300 again. |

Good unit
| My review is based on a trial period of less than one month. I ended up returning the GPS to buy another of Magellan's models. In retrospect, after a year of use with the newer model, I believe the size of the MAP 330 makes it better suited for some uses, such as carrying it in your jeans pocket. With this unit, Magellan has recessed the power button so that it cannot be easily depressed as it is with newer models. On the downside, the screen and button size is larger with other Magellan models, which may be important to some individuals. |

Excellent Unit, Limited use in SouthAmerica
| This is my second Magellan GPS (Map 315 before), I think it is an excellent unit, very useful for almost every situation, works good with your computer. Things that need some improvement: Software mapping in SouthAmerica (Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador), free software for jpg mapping conversion to upload to unit. Maps for outside USA. |
