Magellan RoadMate 3000T review

UPDATE: This model has been discontinued. For current recommendations, please refer to our auto GPS buyers guide or check out our other Magellan auto GPS reviews.

The Magellan RoadMate 3000T features built-in maps of the U.S. and Canada, a digital music player (MP3 and WMA compatible), a photo viewer and the SiRFstar III chipset. A built in li-ion rechargeable battery makes it easier to use these features away from your car. Stepping up to the Magellan
3050T adds Magellan TrafficKit™ (available as an add-on to the 3000T), which provides live traffic incident reports. A subscription is required, of course.
