None....at this price and with these features I have no complaints.

Author's Review
The Magellan Mastro 3100 GPS is well rounded, does everything well, and is a good value for the money. The unit itself is attractive and even stylish. The LCD screen is bright and easy to read in both daylight and night. It dims automatically when reduced light at dusk would make the too bright screen a distraction.
The controls and on screen touch menus are intuitive and easy to program and follow. Although it is not designed as a walk about, I have used it on foot and on a bicycle where it has proven durable, weather proof, and shock resistant. I was pleasantly surprized by how long the built in rechargeable battery lasted.
It comes standard with features you would expect such as: voice variety (male and female) as well as accent, most direct (shortest distance) or fastest, points of interest, and comes loaded with with information and directions for the 48 states. The Maestro can be customized and updated with a PC or laptop and USB cable using the Magellan website which is easy to navigate.
There are higher priced models with bigger screens, and more advanced bells and whistles, but the bottom line is that this is an accurate GPS loaded with standard features, that are very easy to access and use.
