Current maps available as of this review are spring 2009. You will also need to upgrade the firmware before loading the latest maps. Firmware updates are available for free download on the Magellan web site. My first trip from Las Vegas to SLC with the unit was trouble free. from Amazon.com Very good unit for the price. Size is great - easily fits in shirt pocket when not in use. Just hope I never need tech support from Magellan. from Amazon.com Bought the unit about one month ago. It is very easy to use. Also Magellan comes with the map guarantee that will upgrade the map. The map is pretty accurate. from Amazon.com I purchased this gps and at first it seemed great - but then discovered that the maps were not updated. Called Magellan and they graciously sent out the updated maps - free of charge (but only if you call in the first 30 days). I put the updated maps SD card in and it said that the unit could not process it. from Amazon.com I purchased this unit for a upcoming trip to South Carolina to see my 2 sons. Upon checking their address's into the unit, neither of the 2 showed up. I contacted Magellan to find out that the software is the early version on 2006. When asked about an upgrade I was told I would have to pay $89!! from Amazon.com The Magellan Maestro 4210 GPS does its job, this GPS has some problems with some addresses sometimes but don't they all? for the price I payed I can say I am very sastified, it has taken me pretty much where I wanted to go. from Amazon.com I purchased this unit because of the good price and because, while TomTom maps don't show my youngest son's new street, the navteq map that Magellan uses does - accoring to the navteq website. Unfortunately, the map on the unit I received is dated from 2005 - some 4 years old. from Amazon.com The Magellan Maestro 4210 is the perfect GPS if you are looking for one that will just help you find your way around without having to go past the menus for photos, mp3 music or other types of media files. I previously owned another brand of GPS that I had to use a lot of time and effort to get to the menu to just create a new route since I had to bypass all the other options I had no use for. from Amazon.com The Magellan Maestro 4210 is a decent, low cost GPS with just enough features to be functional for my basic needs. This GPS does not have a lot of the bells and whistles found on some of the higher-end units, but it isn't prices like them either. from Amazon.com If I were someone who didn't know where I was, then you could go very far astray believing in this route. However, if you ignore their directions and start driving the way you know you're supposed to go, it will eventually recalculate and pick up that you should be using that highway. This makes me question its reliability, so I still check Google maps before I get in the car for a long trip, just to make sure the Magellan doesn't come up with something crazy. The second issue is that when in downtown Chicago, the GPS gets completely messed up and confused and its almost impossible to use if you start a new route while in the downtown area. from Amazon.com
