The
features of the Magellan RoadMate 300 give you all of the great
advantages of GPS auto navigation in a complete yet simple, compact,
lightweight, portable package:
Easy to use
Intuitive design and friendly technology are combined with an extra
large bright color touch screen and dynamic backlit keypad for easy
operation.
Turn-by-turn guidance with voice prompting
Dynamic turn-by-turn guidance with TrueView® 3D navigation and friendly
voice prompting clearly indicates when to make your next turn. The
voice prompt tells you when to turn and you can confirm the direction
at a glance. There's no need to watch the screen as you follow your
route with confidence.
Mapping data for the U.S. and Canada
The Magellan RoadMate 300 comes with pre-loaded maps of the major
roads in North America. CD-ROMs, containing advanced detailed mapping
of the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada are also included.
From these CD-ROMs you can easily download from your PC the regions
you travel in to the internal memory and add new maps when traveling
in different regions (unlimited downloading). Extend your detailed
map coverage further with Secure Digital memory cards (not included).
NOTE: ONLY maps from the CDs included with the unit can be downloaded
to the RoadMate 300. Regional
pre-loaded, pre-authorized SD cards are also available if you
do not wish to use a computer to load maps.
Magellan Trip Planner
The new Magellan Trip Planner makes navigating multiple destination
journeys easier than ever. Regardless of what town you're in you
can get gas, visit the ATM, pick up a relative and stop by the florist
before meeting the family at the restaurant to celebrate mom's birthday;
all without re-entering destination points while on the journey.
True mobility
Lightweight and truly portable, the Magellan RoadMate 300 is easily
transferred from car to car, so you can take it with you wherever
you go. Its compact size and light weight enable you to easily take
it with you on business trips or whenever you change vehicles. [NOTE:
The RoadMate 300 is intended for use in a closed vehicle and is
not rated for waterproofness.]
Exceptional GPS Accuracy and Reliability
Tracking up to 14 GPS satellites simultaneously, assisted by the
Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), the Magellan RoadMate is accurate
to within 3 meters or better so that you can rest assured that you
know where you are and where you're going.
Advanced points of interest database
The POI database provides extensive listings in your downloaded
region, including businesses, banks, hotels, airports, gas stations,
ATMs, restaurants, and more! You can easily select your destination
by name or category to find the nearest amenity along your planned
route. Sub-categories provide even easier access by allowing you
to choose the specific type of restaurant, service or amenity you
want.
