Sleek and compact, Magellan Roadmate 1412 takes the fear out of traveling on your own in the big city. Why, because this GPS is loaded with great features that amaze even the seasoned traveler.

Roadmate 1412, for one, has over 6 million Points of Interest (POIs). Whether it’s a gasoline station, a restaurant, a hotel, an ATM, a business establishment or something else, that you want to look for, you can quickly search for it using the built-in POI database. It also comes with expanded NAVTEQ™ maps of the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada that appear in brilliant colors on the screen.

If you are taking a car down the road, select the SayWhere™ text-to-speech feature and listen to the voice calling out streets by name, and giving you turn by turn directions. This enables you to focus your eyes on the road and safely reach your destination.

Activate SmartDetour™, a free service that alerts you of huge traffic jams up ahead. Not only that, this service also lets you know which detour to take in order to get to your destination quickly. In case you miss a turn, you will be able to get right back on track with the Auto-detour feature.

Magellan Roadmate 1412 also has a multi-destination routing feature. By this, you get to choose up to 20 destinations and organize your itinerary well ahead of time.

Traveling at night? That shouldn’t be a cause for concern as Roadmate 1412 has Auto NightView™ capabilities. Colors and contrasts adjust automatically so that you’ll still be able to view stuff clearly on your gadget even at night time.

Magellan Roadmate 1412 appears on a wide 4.3” WQVGA color touch screen, and allows you to view your surroundings in 2D or 3D mode.

For its price of $139.99, Magellan Roadmate 1412 is definitely worth having!
