You might want to consider a SporTrak Pro to replace your map model.  The 
Pro 9 meg of space for basemaps and 23 meg for street level maps compared 
to the 2 meg for basemap and 6 meg for street level maps that the SporTrak 
Map has.

I have a Pro and have been very happy with it.  I haven't loaded any topo 
maps yet, but I have loaded the entire state of Arizona at the street level 
and it took right at 15 meg.  I still have 32% of my detailed level map 
memory available for things like topos.

I agree with you about the Magellan GPS units.  This is my second, the 
first was a 315 which I still have, and I have been very happy with them.
