Garmin Nuvi 255w
The Garmin Nuvi 255w is a big improvement over the base 200-series, by adding features such as FM traffic updates or MSN Direct content to an entry-level line. The 255w adds maps for North America and Text-to-Speech, so you get turn by turn spoken directions with the real names of streets (e.g. "turn left in 100 feet on first court", rather than simply "turn left in 100 feet"). The 255w also has a wide 4.3-inch (diagonal) screen that displays 70% more of the road around you.
As in all of the 200 series the 255w will fit in your pocket of purse. All come with rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that make them very convenient for use. All of the models in the series include JPEG picture viewer, time zones with a world travel clock, currency converter, calculator and much more.

Automotive Navigation and how it Works
Automotive GPS navigation will lock in a signal from a number of satellites. The navigator will triangulate your location and apply it to the 2D or 3D map. Then provide very easy to understand directions to your chosen destination.
Garmin Nuvi Automotive GPS Features
Automotive travel in a place you have never been can be a pleasure with your personal navigator. When choosing the model that fits your needs all you need to know is what detail you require. To just go from A to B via address a low end model will suit your needs.
It you require lots of detail voice commands and jam packed with points of interest and software updates so you always have the latest information. Select a little higher end model.
The entry level models come loaded with features and are very high tech but very simple to operate. So you have no distractions while you are driving and the driving safety level goes up a notch or two. Because there are no problems knowing which way to go because the Garmin Nuvi prepares you for your direction changes in advance. So your stress level goes way down being more relaxed and confident in knowing your directions.
Here you can select from low end to high end models both new and use to suit your needs and budget.
