Garmin nüvi 205W 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator
Brand New
Garmin's nüvi 2x5 models improveupon their 200-series predecessors by adding top-of-the-line features such as FM traffic updates or MSN Direct content capability to an entry-level line. But Garmin is also introducing some significant improvements with this new series, like a predictive technology that provides faster satellite lock, a redesigned screen with more information, terrain maps, and an exciting new photo navigation feature. The 205W also offers a wide 4.3-inch (diagonal) screen that displays 70% more of the road around you.
The nüvi 2x5 models sport the slim design that Garmin introduced with
the 200-series last year, so they all fit comfortably in your pocket or purse,
and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that makes them convenient for navigation
by car or foot.All of the models include useful travel tools like a JPEG picture
viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement
converter, calculator and more.
Important Product Information: This device features a "screen lock"
feature. This is a standard feature on all nüvi 2x5 and 7x5 Garmin units.
If you slide the "Power" key to the right, it will lock the screen
and prevent any accidental touches. Once the screen lock feature is engaged,
the screen will go black/gray after about 15 seconds to save power on the
device. To unlock the screen, just slide the "Power" key to the
center position. This feature is really targeted for "Pedestrian"
mode so that a user can put the device in his or her pocket/purse and quickly
unlock the screen instead of powering on/off continuously. For more information,
see page 5 of the product manual.
