| Stay ahead of the curve and connected with nüvi 785T, featuring lane assist
and MSN Direct® content. The 785T guides you to the proper lane for navigation
while delivering real-time local weather, traffic, movie times, stock
information, gas prices, news and local events. It also includes hands-free
calling, preloaded maps and turn-by-turn directions that call out street names.
Like the rest of the nüvi 705-series, this advanced navigator comes with premium
features including 3-D building view, photo navigation, faster screen redraws,
route planning, emergency and car locators and much more.
Know the Lane Before It’s Too Late
nüvi 785T takes navigation to the next level with lane assist. No more
guessing which lane you need to be in to make an upcoming turn. Lane assist
guides you to the correct lane for an approaching turn or exit, making
unfamiliar intersections and exits easy to navigate. It realistically displays
road signs and junctions on your route along with arrows that indicate the
proper lane for navigation.
Get Enhanced MSN Direct
With next-generation dynamic content from
MSN Direct, nüvi 785T
is one resourceful personal travel assistant. Using the included receiver and
free trial service to MSN Direct, you can check the weather, avoid traffic
backups, compare local gas prices, get enhanced movie listings, stock
information, news and local events when you travel with your unit. Even plan
trips from the convenience of your computer, via Windows Live Local, and
wirelessly send locations to nüvi 785T.
Get Turn-by-Turn Directions
nüvi 785T's intuitive interface greets you with two simple questions: "Where
to?" and "View Map." Touch the color screen to easily look up addresses and
services and get voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions that speak street names
to your destination. It comes preloaded with detailed City Navigator® NT street
maps for North America, over 6 million points of interest (POIs) and features
digital elevation maps and 3-D building view in some areas to help you orient
yourself with your surroundings. You can also upload
custom points of
interest (POIs). With HotFix™ satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your
position faster to get you there quicker, and its ultra-fast map redraw ensures
a smooth user interface.
Make Hands-free Calls
For hands-free calling, nüvi 785T integrates A2DP Bluetooth® wireless
technology with a built-in microphone and speaker. Just pair it with your
compatible Bluetooth phone
and talk hands-free through the 785T while staying focused on the road. Simply
dial numbers with nüvi's touchscreen keypad to make a call. To answer calls,
just tap the screen and speak into its built-in microphone. Enjoy convenient
one-touch dialing for contacts and points of interest. Even listen to
high-quality stereo music on your headset with A2DP Bluetooth technology.
Find Yourself, Your Car
Keep track of yourself and your car with nüvi 785T. Just tap the "Where Am
I?" emergency locator to find the closest hospitals, police stations, fuel
stations, nearest address and intersection. Also see your exact latitude and
longitude coordinates. nüvi 785T even remembers where you parked. It
automatically marks your position when you remove it from the windshield mount,
so you can navigate with nüvi on foot and find your way back to your vehicle.
Perfect for unfamiliar spots and crowded lots such as amusement parks, stadiums
and malls.
Plan Ahead
nüvi 785T includes advanced navigation features to take the worry out of
traveling. With route planning you can save 10 routes, specify via points and
preview simulated turns on the 785T's wide screen. In addition, nüvi 785T
automatically sorts multiple destinations to provide an efficient route for
errands, deliveries or sales calls. It also displays speed limits for highways
and Interstates. A trip log provides an electronic bread crumb trail of up to
10,000 points, so you can see where you've been on the map.

With nüvi 785T's widescreen display, you'll always get the big picture. View
map detail, driving directions, photos and more in bright, brilliant color. Its
sunlight-readable, 4.3-inch display is easy to read — from any direction.
Take It With You
Like the rest of the nüvi 705-series, nüvi 785T sports a sleek, slim design
and fits comfortably in your pocket or purse. Its rechargeable lithium-ion
battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.

entertainment and travel tools including MP3 player, audio book player
(subscription to Audible.com required), world travel clock, automatic time zone
transition, currency converter, unit converter, calculator and more. With nüvi
785T's wireless FM transmitter¹ you can hear audio, including voice prompts,
