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, together 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 locate 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 one time you've found the excellent router, the "Route Planning" aspect lets you save up to 10 different routes, Garmin touts the aspect for getting, "the much efficient route for errands, deliveries and sales calls." The aspect in addition makes this an instantaneous necessary accessory for anyone who shops garage sales (you recognize what we're talking concerning).

The super-bright, 4.3-inch (diagonal) touchscreen display provides is anti-glare for ease of viewing during the day and automatically changes its color profile for simple viewing at night or in dim light. It proposes 2d or 3D perspective views.

The widescreen format provides you 70% extra actual screen region than a 3.5-inch screen. Primarily this translates into a better view of the region throughout which you are driving. This is particularly useful in showing you what parks, restaurants, ATM, gas stations, etc. are nearby, or in letting you recognize whether a detour is a good idea. In addition, the device itself is big, meaning controls on the screen are extra widely spaced and somewhat easier to push.

First Rate Map Data
All nüvi 700s come preloaded together 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), counting hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. Garmin gets its map data from NAVTEQ, a world leader in premium-excellence mapping.

Hands-Free Calling

Together with Bluetooth ability, microphone and speaker, you can match your nüvi to any bluetooth-capable phone to do hands-free mobile phone calls. Just dial the phone number together with the nüvi's touch screen keypad to do a call on a compatible phone. To answer an incoming call, just tap the screen and talk into the built-in microphone. Making and taking calls on the road has never been easier, or safer. In addition, Garmin makes it a breeze to look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or even tap into your cell phone's call history log.

Included FM Traffic Receiver

All you have to do is just touch the screen to view traffic details and you'll be ready to detour all-around any problem region. And if you end up missing a turn, or you're forced into a detour this is not relayed throughout the traffic receiver, the nüvi's sophisticated automatic routing will get you back on track in no time.

In much areas, TMC Clear Channel traffic broadcasts are continuous — there's no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts.

Customer Reviews

Customer rating is 1 of 5  Broke down in less than six months.   2010-02-20
By E. W. Rajah (Brazil)
This unit is very easy to use, but after less than six months, it shut down. The unit will not power up anymore. I contacted customer support, and they gave me some tips on how to power it back up, it still did not work. I have re-contacted customer support and am waiting to hear what to do with it. It's a shame that it is not working. I was actually enjoying using it.

By wayneworld10 (PARSIPPANY, NEW JERSEY, US)
Most Garmin auto/mobile GPS units come highly recommended by reviewers. This unit for the most part satisfies. It has been accurate and trouble free in finding and giving directions, not so with other features. Now for the downside. Either the paid renewable subscription type or free traffic updates feature available on many GPS units is a joke. For the most part they are inaccurate and not current and do not give you real time road construction alerts. The next item is the cost of map updates after the first year. Garmin asks for $100.00 I believe. This to me is a little steep considering that the actual cost to Garmin and other providers is most likely a fraction of that. Ah yes marketing. A way to sell more new new units. I will be investigating manufacturers that offer real time traffic reports for a fixed monthly to yearly charge for what I hope is a superior service for not much more than a map update. Since they down sized from the Street Pilot line, the sound stinks. All for looks. The microphone reception in Bluetooth mode is also terrible. Most times you cannot make out what the Bluetooth user is saying.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Great GPS and More!   2010-02-10
By W. Flynn
This was my first GPS unit, and I am quite please. Great POI, maps, and very easy to use. Bought it with the '09 maps and have since upgraded to the '10 maps.

You can pair the 760 with your cell phone via Bluetooth for hands free talking. I believe Garmin has discontinued this model, but if you can find it, buy it.

The only con is that it does not come with a case.


Customer rating is 4 of 5  4 Star +   2010-02-08
By The One (Las Vegas)
Would have been 5 stars but the newer model has Lane Assist :) Works past my expectation.
Worked on move from NC to NV. Worked in rural MidWest and crowded Dallas & LA. Worked in & over the mountains of NV and southern Cali. Even worked at 41,000ft @ 495mph on Delta. I read the safety pamplet on the back of my seat, GPS' are not prohibited items :) Ever since those commercial pilots got "distracted" somebody needs to make sure they are going the right way. ;)
