The R600 is a solid, but not outstanding GPS unit. Its large display and simple user interface are positives, but the large, bulky size, combined with a lack of text-to-speech technology are downsides.

Magellan’s Maestro 4250 provides an alternative to the more expensive, high-end TomTom and Garmin devices. Although it doesn’t provide the same level of polish as some of the better known brands, its features are functional and it provides everyday users with a viable GPS option.

Navigon’s 2110max is a reasonably low priced GPS, but the lack of text-to-speech and Bluetooth capabilities may be a deal breaker for some.

The Oregon 200 is a stripped-down version of the Oregon 300. It has many of the same benefits and flaws of the more expensive model. If you want to save money and don’t need wireless sharing or relief shading, go for the Oregon 200.
