MAGELLAN Explorist 300 GPS Handheld System - The eXplorist 300 adds a trio of advanced tools to the built-in nationwide background map for easier navigation: a barometer, an altimeter and an electronic compass, which eliminates the need to be in motion to get a direction to a destination. Like the eXplorist 200, the eXplorist 300 contains a background map with roads, parks, waterways, airports and more, plus three navigation screens and the ability to save five track-log files with up to 2000 points each. The ideal choice for outdoor adventures, the blue-cased eXplorist 300 is a robust GPS Receiver delivering all of these major features, at a most-affordable price. Less

Good if you want the basics

by darogers , Jun 12, 2006
Pros: Uses AA batteries (you can carry a extra) Uses barometric pressure for determining altitude
Cons: No computer interface. It takes forever to manually input all of your waypoints.
The Bottom Line: Not a bad unit for the intro user. A bit pricey for the features though. I would consider Garmin for my next purchase.

Review: The unit is very easy to operate. Magellan has definitely improved the details in the manual since their earlier models. This unit is great for the novice user. If you're a hiker, fisherman, or biker this has most of what you need. The internal...

I Can Find Anywhere Now (I Think!)

Cons: No AC charger included. Full Manual is available only on line.
The Bottom Line: A VERY handy thing to have in the car. AC recharger is available at extra cost. A nice convenience for those of us who tend to get lost.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: An unexpected pre-Christmas surprise: This DUAL portable GPS navigation system. Something I might never have bought myself - but a marvelous piece of technology - both a useful device to have, especially when traveling in unfamiliar areas - as well...
