Magellan, the fastest growing GPS brand in North America, announced today a second generation of its Maestro series of portable vehicle navigation devices that will feature the thinnest GPS units in the industry. Designed to be pocket-sized for easier portability, Magellan’s new Maestro 4200 and Maestro 3200 series of GPS navigation devices reflect a wide range of user benefits and price points. The device feature a streamlined look and functionality built into a new, sleeker industrial design. At only 17.8 mm thick and just 82.5 mm tall, the new Maestro packs dozens of advanced mapping features and bright 4.3-inch or 3.5-inch QVGA screens into the industry’s most compact, portable auto navigation units.

The Maestro 4200 and 3200 series provides full navigation capability with built-in maps of the 48 contiguous United States and 1.3 million preprogrammed points of interest. The 4.3" color touch screen and simple menu make it easy to find virtually any address and navigate to restaurants, gas stations, ATMs and more as you drive locally or across the country.

In addition, the Maestro 4250 and 3250 units deliver Bluetooth hands-free calling. Pre-loaded maps of North America and Puerto Rico and more than 6 million searchable points of interest, including AAA TourBook information, provide drivers with the most detailed mapping information available.

All new Maestro 4200 and 3200 series models feature:

* SiRF Star III GPS chips to provide the fastest GPS position acquisition in the industry
* QuickSpell® for fast data entry by reducing keystrokes as it checks spelling
* SmartDetour™ feature to help drivers route around freeway traffic
* Searchable points of interest (POI) database for finding and routing to businesses and services like gas stations, ATMs, hotels, restaurants, airports and more. Listings include a phone number, address and the travel distance

* Exit POIs conveniently list gas stations, lodging and restaurants at freeway exits to help drivers plan stops in advance
* Night View to optimize display viewing based on time of day
