Magellan updates RoadMate USA with enhanced maps

The updated version of Magellan RoadMate (2.2) includes new features such as the most current maps available, red light camera and fixed speed camera alerts. The Junction View feature guides users through complicated freeway interchanges.

A premium upgrade via an in-app purchase gives you live camera feeds and warnings about dangerous curves and school zones. You can also purchase additional voices for turn-by-turn directions.

Magellan was an early provider of navigation software for the iPhone. The Magellan app has all the maps on board, so you will not use your data plan for basic navigation, although business searches and other special services will require an Internet connection.

The app is available from the App Store at US$39.99 for the USA version, and $49.99 for the USA/Canada version. All existing RoadMate App users will receive a FREE update to the new version.
