Jay,

I only know the 430, but with that unit, slewing to a map item to get
the info on it would be the worst way to do it, since there is a
dedicated waypoint page showing info for a desired waypoint - and a
page showing the info on the destination waypoint. I'd be surprised if
the 496 doesn't have that.

As a German saying goes: There are many roads going to Rome - but only
one is the shortest.
