I already answered your laser post but I'll add more links on this post for you to check out. First off if you spend the money for a good radar detector they are not usless...You need to know that they are not cop detectors and only detect radar when a cop is operating it. Also when you detect an actuall laser shot from a police officer you are screwed Laser give you no advance warning so once it alerts hello ticket 99% of the time. You can by an active laser jammer like the Escort zr3 or Blinder M20 to combat laser but those are illegal in some states
This is a great website to check out radar detector results

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In cryptography, XTR is an algorithm for publickey encryption. XTR stands for ECSTR, which is an abbreviation for Efficient and Compact Subgroup Trace Representation. It is a novel method that makes use of traces to represent and calculate powers of elements of a subgroup of a finite field. It is based on the primitive underlying the very first public key cryptosystem, the DiffieHellman key agreement protocol. From a security point of view, XTR is a traditional discrete logarithm system: For its security it relies on the difficulty of solving discrete logarithm related problems in the multiplicative group of a finite field. Some advantages of XTR are its fast key generation (much faster than RSA), small key sizes (much smaller than RSA, comparable with ECC for current security settings), and speed (overall comparable with ECC for current security settings).

I am looking at 2 different radar detectors, both priced equally. One is the Whistler XTR-190, the other a Cobra XRS 9330. I have been told that the Whistler has POP coverage where the Cobra doesn't.. but I don't know which one actually preforms better or if the POP even matters.
Which one actually preforms better and should be bought? (If it helps at all, I live in Southern California)
If you are considering Whistler, I would personally recommend either their latest models: Whistler Pro-78 or Whsitler XTR-690. They are stellar performers for the money.
Below is a detailed review of them:

For Cobra, the R7 and R9G are the newest models, with the 9930 being the equivalent conventional windshield-mount version:
