It is a small, convenient, portable and easy to use automotive GPS navigator. It has three-dimensional map graphics, is voice-prompted and tells you turn-by-turn directions through a built-in speaker. Gives confidence to people like me with zero sense of direction! And for those that never get lost, have the joy of knowing that if the unthinkable should ever happen you’ll have the directions to get back to where you were. Makes a great gift for the man in your life that refuses to stop at the gas station to get directions on the way to the campsite. (not that I know anyone like that….)
Great for driving alone or with the kids in the car, as the “voice” tells you if you need to make a left or a right, get on the freeway or which exit to take. It also tells you the distance and the estimated time of arrival. No need to fumble with a map or sheet of paper that has directions printed on it. You can focus on paying attention to the road the whole time. No worries if you have multiple vehicles this cool little gadget is portable, you can move it from one car to the other with no hassles. Simply un-mount it from the windshield of the one car and mount it onto the other car – so easy!
The driver can choose from either a three-dimensional mapping perspective or the standard overhead bird’s-eye view. It has a neat touch-screen which allows for quick access to features such as addresses, recent locations, food, and lodging and it automatically puts you back on course when you make a wrong turn or run into traffic problems. It even includes a SD card slot and 128 SD card and Map Source City Select street data on CD-ROM. You can upload detailed maps using your computer and the Map Source City Select street data on CD-ROM.
Navigator can be charged too because it has an internal lithium-ion battery. It also includes the vehicle suction cup mount w/integrated power cable and PC/USB interface cable.
