Magellan Roadmate 3050T

Magellan besides the Roadmate 3000T, has also announced another model in the Roadmate series the Magellan Roadmate 3050T. The features of the Roadmate 3050T are similar with those of the 3000T and no major differences are reported in the press release. However, the 3050T will be a little more expensive than the 3000T (50$) since its expected retail price is 649$. Probably because of a bigger harddisk? Just speculating here.
Some of the features include:
3.5 inch color touchscreen
2-D or 3-D bird’s eye view
Preloaded maps of the USA
Music player
Photo viewer
SmartDetour(TM)
QuickSpell(TM)
Optional traffic module
The Magellan Roadmate 3050T is expected to start shipping in June with a price of 649$
[...] Magellan Roadmate 6000T has also been announced today along with the Roadmate 3000T and 3050T. The Roadmate 6000T will be the first in the Magellan line of GPS devices that will offer hands-free calling with Bluetooth enabled phones. It will have the same new design and similar features with the 3000T and 3050T like the integrated music player and photo viewer, but in addition to those it will also have a built-in real-time traffic receiver. It will also be able to “speak” the name of the road for upcoming maneuvers using Magellan’s SayWhere(TM) text-to-speech guidance. [...]
