| The Ultimate Travel Companion
Introducing the nüvi: A versatile travel assistant that’s approximately the
size of a deck of playing cards.
The nüvi is a portable GPS navigator, traveler’s reference, and digital
entertainment system, all in one. Combined with detailed maps, the nüvi provides
automatic routing, turn-by-turn voice directions, and finger-touchscreen
control—making it easy to find your way anywhere.
Travel Kit™
The nüvi also offers a travel kit of useful travel tools to help keep any
journey fun: MP3 player, audio book player from Audible.com, JPEG picture
viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement
converter, and calculator. In addition, optional software packages such as the
Language Guide and Travel Guide (sold separately on SD Data cards) can be added
for language and content support.
Language Guide™ software (optional)
Users can access an optional Garmin Language Guide, with data provided by
Oxford University Press. This software suite contains a multilingual word bank,
phrase bank, and five bilingual dictionaries. The multilingual word bank and
phrase bank supports nine languages and dialects, including American English,
British English, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, European
Portuguese, European Spanish, and Latin American Spanish. The Language Guide
lets travelers look up and translate more than 17,000 words or 20,000 phrases
per language. Through the unit’s text-to-speech interface (offered only on the
nüvi 350) , users can get a spoken pronunciation of each entry in the word
bank—along with gender and part-of-speech information.
Travel Guide™ software (optional)
The new Garmin Travel Guide is loaded with information provided by Marco
Polo. These guides put in-depth travel information—such as reviews and
recommendations for restaurants, tourist attractions, and more—at the user’s
fingertips.
Travelers can use the nüvi to navigate to an address or search points of
interest (POIs)—places like hotels, restaurants, shopping, and tourist
attractions. The nüvi automatically calculates the fastest route and provides
voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions along the way. Thanks to the nüvi’s
text-to-speech functionality, the unit audibly announces the name of upcoming
streets—letting drivers keep their eyes on the road while navigating through
busy traffic and tricky roadways. If users stray off course, the nüvi
automatically calculates the quickest way to get back on track.
The nüvi comes in two configurations:
