 Magellan support is non-existent December 6, 2008
Purchased (not from Amazon) with key. Key doesn't work. Magellan support is unresponsive and utterly useless. Go with a Garmin product..or anything else.

I purchased the Explorist XL directly from Magellan and this software from Amazon. My plans were to use this unit while camping and hiking in Michigan's UP in mid-August. When I installed the software it took me through a "Unlocking" step to activate it. I was unable to complete this step because Magellan has taken there Ecommerce site down for an upgrade. I spent most of an hour online with various individuals and on hold. I went through a tortuous phone tree and then was asked for the same information I had just pressed various numbers to input. I also endured repeated requests for my name, email address and telephone number. This effort was of no use. They are totally unable to help me. They are very sorry but I am unable to use the software until after the 15th. I noticed that Magellan wasn't willing to delay charging my card until I had a usable product. If this is their idea of customer support I'm not certain that I want to continue being a customer. I was seriously considering purchasing one of their Maestro units but after this experience any of their competitors is preferable.
 Mapsend Software July 14, 2007
The mapsend software loaded great and I as able to download selected regions to the GPS unit but when we used it during a recent trip to Seattle we finally put it away and went back to maps as it created very strange routes that took us way out of the way. This was the first time we used it so there might have been "user" issues as well. I would make sure you are very comfortable with the process before I relied heavily on it.
Buyer Beware July 3, 2007
I bought the software for a handheld Magellan GPS that I recently purchased. I did not realize the software comes on a DVD format. I did not have a DVD drive on my computer. When I tried to return it, the company I bought it from, "ANTONLINE" would not allow me to return it despite the fact that I had just purchased it and I did not install it. I ended up installing a DVD drive in my Computer. The software does work as promised but it is very tedious to install and the directions are not that self explainatory. When I complained to Amazon, they did not respond to my complaint....very disappointing performance from Amazon. If I were you I would not buy from ANTONLINE. I would buy the software elsewhere.

Program works as it should in generating the detailed maps. I will only be able to test the maps when we go to the US in a couple of months.
