This review is from: Magellan 730348 USB Serial Accessory Ada (Office Product)
Just bought a new laptop with no serial port, and wanted to still use my Magellan Meridian Marine to upload waypoints and also for auto navigation. Bought this adapter, and installed the device. XP told me the driver was not XP certified. Sure enough, it cause one crash after another. The only way I could get it to run was to connect the USB adapter before booting the laptop, then boot, then connect the gps, and only then it would give location info only to Delorme Streets. If I plugged the usb with gps running in while the laptop was running, it crashed the operating system or tried to reload the driver. Never could get it to download or upload waypoints with Delorme applications (Streets and Topo), so it was useless to me and I returned it. I spent an hour on the phone with Magellan tech help, who claimed they had never had this problem before, but I never could get it to work properly.

I agree with the previous reviewer. It causes Windows XP to shut down. Magellan was absolutely no help in solving the problem. I called on the phone several times and wrote emails several times. They don't seem to be able to communicate in English very well. I was trying to use the product with a SporTrak Color.
