Review of Magellan Roadmate 760 Traffic Kit

March 13th, 2010 No comments

Magellan Roadmate 760 Traffic KitThis unit was easy to install. Now, my Roadmate 760 gets live traffic updates. In addition to being able to see roadwork, accidents, and other impediments on the map, the routing will adjust for them. It seems that the estimated travel time is more accurate now as well.

An unexpected benefit of this kit was the software upgrade that came with it. Several roads near us were always spoken by their less common names (e.g. “V-62″) instead of the primary names (e.g. “Quentin Road”). Now, the unit speaks the more common names of these roads. Maps were not updated, though. They are still quite old.

Product Description
The Magellan TrafficKit uses an FM receiver that connects to Navteq NavTraffic and sends real-time reports directly to your Magellan RoadMate 7001 or 760. Your Magellan RoadMate uses this information to make advanced calculations and adjust the time and distance to destination, shown on the color touch screen. The Magellan RoadMate automatically routes around traffic incidents when a quicker way is available.

Review of Magellan 980795 Clip Case

March 12th, 2010 No comments

Magellan 980795 Clip CaseIf you are wondering what they mean by “clip case,” they are talking about it having a clip like one you would find on a cell phone holster that you could hook onto a pocket.I ordered this item without being sure if they meant that or if it had some kind of loop that I could clip things onto (like a caribiner).

The case itself is fine, and my eXplorist 300 fits perfectly inside it.The padding is thin, but there is some.The clip on it is strong plastic attached to the case securely.You can still hook this onto a belt as the clip is quite large (about 2.5 inches long).For $9, if you’re looking for a case, this one isn’t bad, and I think it is more versatile than the belt loop case that Magellan offers.

Product Description
With the Magellan 980795 Clip Case you can keep your Magellan eXplorist GPS secure and right where you need it. Featuring an efficient flex-clip design, the Magellan Clip Case provides secure storage and convenient access to your eXplorist GPS handheld. The Clip Case is sturdy and durable, keeping your GPS in place wherever your adventure takes you
