This product is relatively similar to its 2007 predecessor, the Nuvi 200W. While the 205W retains the same form-factor and many of the same features, it does introduce several new technologies as seen throughout the majority of 2008’s Nuvi product line. The 205W can save a total of 1000 custom locations and waypoints, 500 more than its predecessor.<br /><br />This GPS also features free (ad-supported) lifetime FM traffic updates, as well as MSN Direct support for traffic and content services. The 205W can also find the closest essential services (hospitals, police and gas stations) as well as the nearest addresses and intersections.

While nearly identical to the Nuvi 250, the Nuvi 270 comes preloaded with maps for Europe as well as North America. Additional maps may be loaded to the device via SD Card or USB. This GPS also features voice prompts (“turn left in 500 ft.”), but does not feature spoken street names like in most higher-end receivers. With the ability to save 500 favorite locations as well as custom points of interest, most drivers looking for an entry-level GPS with a wide range of preloaded maps should find Garmin’s Nuvi 250 more ...<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OH26OM?ie=UTF8&tag=garmingps093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000OH26OM"><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">read more</span></span></a><br /><br /><div style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255); font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" align="right"><span style="font-size:130%;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OH26OM?ie=UTF8&tag=garmingps093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000OH26OM" class="style3"><span class="style19"><u>more product details and real reviews</u></span></a></span><span class="style17" style="font-size:130%;"> <span class="style8">>></span></span> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/657071736076472484-9048711657678836195?l=garminseries.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>DivineDnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657071736076472484.post-79224884778111536802009-03-02T08:53:00.001-08:002009-05-17T21:08:28.568-07:00Garmin nuvi 260 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000UU7ZPS?ie=UTF8&tag=garmingps093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000UU7ZPS"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 280px; height: 280px;" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51N5xZ7m6EL._SL500_AA280_.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">Technical Details</span></span><br /><ul face="verdana" style="list-style-type: disc; list-style-image: none; list-style-position: outside; padding-left: 25px; font-family: verdana;"><li class="MsoNormal" style="">3.5” touch screen color display, 320 x 240 resolution<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">voice prompts for hands-free navigation<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">spoken street name prompts<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">preloaded with maps for North America (U.S.A., Canada, Mexico)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">USB 2.0 connection for additional map updates<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">2D and 3D map interface</li></ul><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" class="style13" >Product Review</span><br /><br />The Garmin Nuvi 260 is an entry-level GPS receiver released in mid-2007. Designed as a low-cost alternative to its predecessor, late 2005’s $1000 Nuvi 350. While not as fully featured as the Nuvi 350, this GPS does include the essentials for the average driver’s traveling needs. The Nuvi 260 comes preloaded with maps for North America, including the United States, Canada and Mexico. Additional maps may be loaded to the device via SD Card or USB. This GPS also features voice prompts (“turn left in 500 ft.”), as well as spoken street names (“Turn right on Main Street in 500 ft.”) so the driver can keep his or her eyes on the road at all times. Aside from the spoken street names feature, this GPS is exactly the same as the Nuvi 250.

While very similar to the Nuvi 265T, this device features a 4.3” widescreen display, an SD Card slot (opposed to microSD), and the choice of a QWERTY or ABC keyboard. The device’s 2D and 3D mapping system is complimented by an integrated text-to-speech system, allowing motorists to keep their focus on the road instead of the GPS receiver. Released in late 2008, this GPS has been designed to improve upon the 200-series predecessors, by adding free (ad supported) real-time traffic updates as well as hands-free Bluetooth connectivity for compatible mobile phones. Compared to the earlier 200-series, the Nuvi 265WT also features faster satellite communication, and photo navigation so one can use landmarks for added confidence when...<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001ELJ9QK?ie=UTF8&tag=garmingps093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001ELJ9QK"><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">read more</span></span></a><br /><br /><div style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255); font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" align="right"><span style="font-size:130%;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001ELJ9QK?ie=UTF8&tag=garmingps093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001ELJ9QK" class="style3"><span class="style19"><u>more product details and real reviews</u></span></a></span><span class="style17" style="font-size:130%;"> <span class="style8">>></span></span> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/657071736076472484-7761711251193686475?l=garminseries.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>DivineDnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657071736076472484.post-77026804136115446522009-03-02T08:46:00.000-08:002009-05-17T21:16:01.031-07:00Garmin nüvi 360 3.5-Inch Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EXS1BS?ie=UTF8&tag=garmingps093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000EXS1BS"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 280px; height: 280px;" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51ZB7D2RGSL._SL500_AA280_.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">Technical Details</span></span><br /><ul face="verdana" style="list-style-type: disc; list-style-image: none; list-style-position: outside; padding-left: 25px; font-family: verdana;"><li>Bluetooth ready - receive calls on this GPS device<br /></li><li>Built in image viewr and MP3 player with sample songs and images.<br /></li><li>2D or 3D map views.

Preloaded on the Nuvi 760 is City Navigator street maps along with millions of POI’s (points of interest) which are all controlled through touch screen commands. This model does utilize voice prompts when directing the driver to their destination, but it also displays a 3-D map on its 4.3” WQVGA colour TFT with white backlight. What separates this model from the Nuvi 750, is the Bluetooth and FM Traffic features. Using Bluetooth with a compatible cell-phone, hands free calls can be made, and with the FM TMC receiver, the user has the ability to forecast traffic issues or delays. The Nuvi 760 also doubles as an entertainment tool, with MP3 Playback, JPEG picture viewing and FM transmitter. The battery life, though rechargeable, is 5 hours, and the unit weighs 6.2 ounces.
