| Garmin nuvi 200W 4.3" Widescreen GPS System
Garmin's nüvi 200W combines the thin profile and attractive price point
of other nüvi 200-series GPS with and a beautiful 4.3-inch (diagonally)
wide touchscreen that lets you see more of what's around you as you
drive. As with all nüvis, you get Garmin reliability, the fast
satellite lock of a high-sensitivity integrated receiver, a slim,
pocket-sized navigator with a gorgeous display, detailed NAVTEQ maps
that lets you search by name for more than 6 million points of
interest like stores, restaurants or hospitals, and an easy, intuitive
interface.
See More of What's Around
The 4.3-inch backlit widescreen touchscreen gives you 70% more actual
screen area than a 3.5-inch screen. Primarily this translates into a
better view of the area through which you are driving. This is
especially useful in showing you what parks, restaurants, ATM, gas
stations, etc. are nearby, or in letting you know whether a detour is a
good idea. Also, the device itself is larger, meaning controls on the
screen are more widely spaced and somewhat easier to push.
Smart, Powerful Design nüvi is built with a
high-sensitivity GPS receiver for extreme accuracy, as well as an SD
card slot for storing your media and additional navigation tools, and a
USB interface for loading data. All this is wrapped up in a package
that measures 4.8 x 2.9 x 0.8 inches (W x H x D) and weighs just 6.6
ounces. The nüvi display is touchscreen-enabled, making it a cinch to
control the device with your fingertips. A rechargeable lithium-ion
battery provides up to five hours of battery life depending on use. Garmin Lock
Garmin's patent pending theft prevention system that disables the unit
from performing any functions until the user types in a specific
4-digit PIN or takes the unit to a predetermined secure location First Rate Map Data
nüvi comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City
Navigator NT street maps for the continental United States, Hawaii, and
Puerto Rico, including a hefty database of more than 6 milliong points
of interest (POIs), such as hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more,
that are searchable by name or category. Simply touch the color screen
to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and
turn-by-turn voice directions. Garmin gets its map data from NAVTEQ, a
world leader in premium-quality mapping. In addition, the nüvi accepts
custom (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set
proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs Important note about map updates:
Due to our high volume of sales, almost every Garmin portable GPS
navigator sold by Amazon.com will come with the most recent map
version. If you ever do need a map update, you can purchase one from
Amazon.com at our Garmin Store. Easy To Use Interface Garmin's
interface is a key to their success and one of the things that makes

your trip. Beyond Navigation

icons that let you select car-shaped graphics to show your location on
the map. This device is compatible with optional content plug-ins available via SD card, such as the Garmin Travel Guides and Garmin SaversGuide
