Help Needed With Magellan Explorist 300

Iam so frustrated thatI can not get any one from Magellan that can speak
plain English to help me,they studder and stammer and are VERY ery hard
to understand.

I have this GPS and need very much to learn by OCT as we are going to
Colorado on a Elk Hunt.Could someone please help me or give me a link to
go to that will help me.I truly would appreciate it a lot.

I have no instruction manual as the onesthat came wit it ARE OF NO
VALUE.They do not give a STEP ONE~STEP two concept learning this GPS

Probably not. Larry is posting via WebTV......first clue that he doesn't
have a clue.

Where did you buy it, Larry?
Knowing that you need "extra help" figuring out technical things, you should
have asked about training up front.

Let me guess: You bought it over the Web ???

Hope not 'cause Magellan is not going to be much help........nor would
Garmin, Tomtom, etc. in your situation. You need to find a "hands on"
coach. Good luck with that.

No I actually got it as a gift.Why would such COMPANIES have a product
like a GPS and NO video,,Stupid STUPID managers and CEO's,butI assure
YOU ONCE I learn how to use it I WILL ffor fact get a COPYRIGHT and
produce a VIDEO on several GPS models on different companies.They are to
ignorant I guess on how to use there on prroduct or just dont care if we
can use them as lng as they "GET THEIR MONEY" whata shame,well the money
will be in my pocket cause I already have some buyers that want
videos,Larry

I doubt your videos would sell well. You're really making your process of
learning more trouble than it's worth. You'd still have to read the manual
to design a decent video. And these days, DVDs are preferred. Buy a real
computer and ISP connection.

webTV doesn't sound very functional. And while you're making your videos
the rest of us will be off and running.

PDFs if viewable are zoomable. Or does webTV not include that basic
feature?

You obviously don't have the nack to just start pushing buttons on it and
see what happens. From what I read it's super simple to use.

Did you do any searching for reviews and forums for your model or did you
just want us to be your secretary?
