I am very pleased with the Magellan Crossover GPS system. It works as well as reasonably expected. On major highways, the spoken directions are clear once you become familiar with its maneuvering instruction set. The vocal directions read exactly the language on the signs where there are forks in the road to guide you timely and exactly in the right direction. Of course there are places where there are several quick change sequences that may be confusing to follow and execute, but that is an inherent problem due to the design of the roads and how quickly drivers can follow directions.
Satellite coverage is great with 20 channels, though it still takes about 2-4 minutes for location detection. Maps are relatively new and accurate at least for S. California, though not perfect. One con is the need to hold the "on" button for at least 10 seconds for a good boot (the Magellan tech said to press it for 20 seconds which is a bit much). Download the latest firmware 2.14 as of July 30, 2007 for a new interface that I think works a lot better than the old one.
