New Review: Magellan RoadMate 6000T
There's a review of the Magellan 6000T coming out of the UK that takes a look at the new high end Magellan market entry that includes things like Traffic and Bluetooth handsfree calling. In a previous review by Pocket Lint, they thought that the Magellan 6000T was "disappointing". The review wades through some pluses and minuses of the unit, like the fact that the bluetooth calling was solid, and the navigation was good. The issues are mainly with the product design (10 buttons surrounding a touchscreen makes for a repetitive and a bit unnecessary design) and the software interface. This is troubling as I am finding that software issues in other units that I use can weigh on you daily as you try to go through normal tasks.
Their summary says "Looking at specs alone the Magellan Roadmate 6000t is a tempting proposition and the core functions such as Bluetooth and, essentially, address finding are pretty good. However, some poor physical and software design decisions threaten to undermine that good work and over complicate what should really be straight forward tasks. However, you can pick one up for a little under £300 if shop around, so there is a silver lining at least."
