Most suction-cup mounts for PNDs feature a single point of articulation (usually at the point where the neck meets the back of the device), are only about 2 to 3 inches long at best, and can only be mounted to nonporous surfaces like glass. You'll recall that I mentioned that this cradle's adjustability was key in bringing my opinion around on whether or not the RoadMate 9055-LM's 7-inch screen was too big for a normal-size car. The back surface of the unit is where you'll find the RoadMate 9055-LM's speaker and the grooves that are used to attach the unit to its mounting cradle. Check out the full review of that product for more details on how this works. The bottom edge of the unit is also home to a microSD card slot that can be used for installing map updates and a video input that is used in concert with Magellan's Wireless Back-Up Camera. The unit's power can also be automatically controlled by the USB power connection located on the bottom edge of the RoadMate 9055-LM unit - plugging in to power causes the unit to spring to life and disconnecting brings up an onscreen prompt that give users 10 seconds to decide to operate on battery power before automatically powering off. Along the top edge is a power switch that gives users manual control over activating and deactivating the unit. Look closely at the device's glossy black bezel and you'll find the pinhole opening for the device's microphone. Massive screen aside, the RoadMate 9055-LM isn't dramatically different from your standard Magellan navigator.

The Magellan RoadMate 9055-LM's screen is larger than the entire footprint of this 4.7-inch RoadMate 3065.
