Amazon.com Product Description -- January 8, 2008 Garmin's nüvi 700 series brings two exciting new features -- multi-destination routing and, "Where am I?/Where's my car?" -- to its popular pocket-sized GPS navigator lineup. As with all nüvis, you get Garmin reliability, the fast satellite lock of an integrated high-sensitivity receiver, a slim, pocket-sized design with a gorgeous display, an easy, intuitive interface, and detailed NAVTEQ maps for the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico with more than 6 million name-searchable points of interest. All of the 700-series navigators also feature a rich array of features including spoken directions in real street names, MP3 player and photo viewer, and an FM transmitter that will play voice prompts, MP3s, audio books, and more, directly through your vehicle's stereo system. The nüvi 760 and 770 add integrated traffic receivers and Bluetooth capability for hands-free calling. The nüvi 770 adds maps for Europe. The nüvi 780 adds enhanced MSN direct content capability. Which nüvi is Best for You?: Click here to see a quick, simple comparison of features for all Garmin nuvi GPS navigators  Garmin's nüvis pack top of the line features into a slim form factor. | Wider screen lets you see more of what's around. Compare these actual size views of a 3-inch (diagonal) screen  and a 4.3-inch diagonal widescreen  | New Features -- Where Am I? Where's My Car? The nüvi 700 series is the first to answer two common questions: "Where am I?" and "Where's my car?" At any time, with a single tap of the screen, drivers can display their exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and gas stations. And to help drivers find their car in an unfamiliar spot or vast parking lot, all nüvi 700s automatically mark the position in which they were last removed from the mount. New Features -- Multi-Destination Routing This lets you enter several spots into the device (day care - supermarket-cleaners - office - day care, for example) and it will plot the fastest route. And once you've found the best router, the "Route Planning" feature lets you save up to 10 different routes, Garmin touts the feature for providing, "the most efficient route for errands, deliveries and sales calls." The feature also makes this an instant essential accessory for anyone who shops garage sales (you know what we're talking about). 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. See Better, See More The super-bright, 4.3-inch (diagonal) touchscreen display gives is anti-glare for ease of viewing during the day and automatically changes its color profile for easy viewing at night or in dim light. It offers 2d or 3D perspective views. The widescreen format 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. First Rate Map Data All nüvi 700s come preloaded with highly detailed City Navigator NT road maps for the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. This map database features nearly six million points of interest (POIs), including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. Garmin gets its map data from NAVTEQ, a world leader in premium-quality mapping. 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. 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 Easy To Use Interface Garmin's interface is a key to their success and one of the things that makes their devices such a pleasure to use. Simple controls and sub-screens make it easy to enter or search for destinations and get data about your trip.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT! July 23, 2008 I just recieved this navigation last night and I'm already in love! It's absolutely wonderful. It's completely user friendly and simple to use. The directions are clear and the text to speech is great.
The only complaints I have are small; 1. There is no lane directions. When you're on the freeway and there are 4 lanes going in 3 directions it doesn't show you which one to stay in like some other navi's do. 2. It does take a while at first to aquire the GPS connection. I think it took probably 5 minutes but that's when you turn it on for the first time. Otherwise when I started it this morning it took a few seconds to find the satellite. 3. This isn't really a problem anymore, but when I first started using the unit I was dissapointed to see that the "keyboard" was in ABC order, not QWERTY. But, I figured out that through Tools-Settings you can change it to QWERTY which is awesome.
Overall I think this is a great unit, especially for someone like me who's not looking for the bluetooth, MP3 player, etc. It does come with MP3 and an FM tuner but it's not a feature I'll ever use. I simply bought this model because it was the best model with a 4.3" screen.
Easy to use, does what I need it to July 17, 2008 This is my first GPS that wasn't strictly for pedestrian use (geocaching). I use a Mac (10.5.4), so I wanted something with compatible software. The software Garmin makes available for this device is excellent. This unit came with the 2008 maps preloaded but when I registered at garmin.com I received a free update to the 2009 maps (and a firmware update).
I've only had it two days now, but my favorite features so far:
- Voice notifications are common sense. The GPS isn't yelling out "Turn in 200 feet" while you're waiting at a stop light. Also, it tells you the street "Turn left on Main Street" versus "Turn left in 200 feet". - The Mac software works. Get Bobcat for sure. Find the mac software here: http://www8.garmin.com/macosx/. Their browser plugin, Garmin Connect works in Safari. Read that again... Garmin Connect works in Safari. - You can create a myGarmin account and have geocaches uploaded to the unit via USB. Pinpoint a location, select the surrounding caches, and Garmin Connect handles the upload. Too easy. - QWERTY keyboard. Or ABCDEF if you want. - Auto-routing. Garmin calls it something else, but there is an option for creating a "best route" from a bunch of points on your map - Auto correction. Take a detour during your trip and the nuvi can get you back on track.
I bought this for an upcoming move and house hunting trip. I was able to plot 30 homes and neighborhoods I wanted to look at on Google Maps. I used takitwithme.com to convert those points to a GPX file. I used Bobcat to import that GPX file to my nuvi 750. I used the nuvi to create an optimized route (with my house as the start and end point) automatically. So now, when I get to this new city I *should* be able to hit all 30 areas in a single day, without driving all over the place. I'll post an update after the move, but so far I've been pretty impressed with this GPS.
Good but not great July 14, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love the GPS unit!
not as pleased with the retailer, I did not see anywhere in the description that the unit was a refurb, they said it was new but it is a bit deceptive to infer "new" when it is a refurb.
Everything else about the seller was great!
This GPS makes me feel like riding a Batmobile. July 13, 2008 The sophisticate, accurate, smart and delicate features that this GPS offers is great. If money is available, I highly recommend this GPS to those who have hard time finding places on their own.
First opinion July 13, 2008 The shipment arrived promptly. After charging the Garmin it aquired the satellites far more rapidly than my Garmin V. Also it easily maintained contact when I moved into the house. I like the QWERTY keyboard option. The documentation supplied was only the rapid start type. For more information I had to download the manual from the internet. The directions were good. I especially liked the suggestion of moving to the right or left of the highway to ease the next turn.
