Garmin - Nuvi 760

The Garmin Nuvi 760 continues the design and performance features that have taken this series to the top of the market. However, there are marked improvements on both these fronts making this model a very complete travel guide.

The Garmin Nuvi 760 comes with the same wide screen display that started with a previous model but the device surprisingly maintains its compact size, managing to look even more sleek. Further, there are better navigation and location tools supplemented with a digital entertainment system. The Garmin Nuvi 760 thus moves one step further to providing an ultra-portable, fully integrated travel device.

Features

The Garmin Nuvi 760 has one of the best displays with its wide screen allowing for more bright visuals even in sunlight and both images and text are seen clearly, irrespective of what direction they are seen from.

To begin using the Garmin Nuvi 760, just enter the address of your destination. The device immediately comes up with a detailed route aided by a database of street maps, covering all of North America and a database of a few million points of interest along these streets. The points of interest are locations that are most wanted by travelers especially when they are driving through unknown cities, like ATMs, fuel stations, hotels or restaurants. Some of these databases are further specialized offering a selection of restaurants based on cuisine type or ATMs of different banks. The Nuvi 760 will announce the directions by street name so that your eyes can always stay on the road; in fact, if you so prefer, the device will even forewarn you of a point of interest that is close by.

While obviously the Nuvi 760 makes traveling on the road easy, it even offers you the comfort of planning your trip before hand. Use the device to plan your trip via various routes and save them for later use. You are allowed to save up to 10 routes. You would like to see how a particular route works out and what the points of interest are along the way? No problem, use the simulation feature in the Nuvi 760 to see the turns along with the points of interest and the speed limits for various highways. Let us mention another useful feature of the Nuvi 760. How many times has it happened that you have parked your vehicle in a particular spot only to forget exactly where? And then spent hours trying to locate it? The Nuvi 760 will now remember where you parked your vehicle by automatically noting down the location of the vehicle when you remove it from its mount. This will help you return to your vehicle easily. You can appreciate how handy this tool can be especially when you are visiting crowded areas like shopping malls, concert halls or stadiums.

In addition to navigation features, the Nuvi 760 also allows you to talk on your Bluetooth mobile through an integrated Bluetooth technology. Use the speaker and microphone that are in-built with the device and all you have to worry about is the driving.

The Nuvi 760 thus offers you a safe and stress-free trip on the road.
