Discontinued Magellan GPS Units
Discontinued Magellan GPS units present a great bargain to the consumer. Just because they have been discontinued is no reason not to consider one. After all, these are units with hundreds or thousands of owners and have been proven over time. The manufacturer still supports the units and software, map updates and manuals are readily available. <> With the hoard of units coming on the market and most at new lower prices, the prices of the discontinued Magellan GPS units are driven even lower. There are some great deals out there. All you have to do is look. The chart below lists some of the most popular discontinued Magellan GPS units. We have listed the most popular features buyers look for and if you click on a particular model, you will be taken to a detail page for that unit. There you will be given a complete explanation of all the features of the unit in addition to reviews and comments by owners of that unit. Space restraints demand that we use some abbreviated words for the feature columns. The following list is an explanation of each column on the chart. - Model: The model number of the unit
- $: This is the Magellan GPS unit's suggested retail price. It should be noted that these prices are from when the unit was introduced and DO NOT reflect their discontinued status. Chances are very good you'll be able to purchase the unit for a substantially better price than that listed.
- Screen: This column lists the screen size of the unit measured diagonally. This is purely a matter of preference although the larger screen may be easier to read.
- Speak Street Names: This is a text to speech feature. With this feature the system will tell you to "in .5 miles turn left on Williams street". Without this feature the system would tell you to "in .5 miles turn left". This is a very desirable feature. With it you do not have to look at the map to confirm that you are on the correct street.
