The Magellan Maestro is a line of GPS devices that features one-touch navigational menus, 3D landmarks, Bluetooth, live traffic news and FM radio transmission compatibility. If you own a Magellan Maestro, you will want to keep the device updated in order to ensure you have the latest software and maps.
