Magellan CrossoverGPS 3.50

Explain star rating

RRP

$1099.00

Review Date

Wednesday, 28th of November, 2007

What's Hot

Crossover unit means flexibility, solid build quality and rugged design, water resistant

What's Not

Can't enter addresses in walking mode, a little sluggish, user interface looks outdated, volume could be louder

The Final Word

Magellan's CrossoverGPS unit is a fair effort, but it's lacking in some areas. If you do your fair share of walking and boating though, this is definitely worth a look.
