Magellan RoadMate 1424
The Magellan RoadMate 1424 is one of Magellan’s most popular 4.3” models, thanks to a bargain basement price. Despite the fact that this is an entry-level unit, it comes with preloaded maps of the entire US and Canada, as well as Magellan’s popular OneTouch feature.
Magellan RoadMate 3030-LM
The Magellan RoadMate 3030LM is one of Magellan’s most popular models as I write this, thanks to its low price, extra-wide 4.7” screen and lifetime maps updates.

The Magellan RoadMate 5045-LM is Magellan’s most popular model as I write this, and with good reason. It offers an ultra-wide 5” screen, along with lifetime traffic and lifetime map updates, all for a very reasonable price.

WiFi Magellan RoadMate 5175T-LM emerges
UPDATE: Read my hands on review of the Magellan RoadMate 5175T-LM. If Garmin won’t follow up on the success of their WiFi-enabled nuvi 295W, Magellan certainly will. That’s right, the new Magellan RoadMate 5175T-LM offers WiFi and a Web browser. Besides that, you’ll get the ability to switch between portrait and landscape modes, a 5” [...]
