New Features — Where Am I? Where’s My Car?
The n?vi 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 n?vi 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 n?vi 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.
Hands-Free Calling
In more and more places, it is becoming illegal to use cell phones while driving without a hands-free kit. WIth Bluetooth capability, microphone and speaker, you can match your n?vi to any bluetooth-capable phone to make hands-free mobile phone calls. Simply dial the phone number with the n?vi’s touch screen keypad to make a call on a compatible phone. To answer an incoming call, just tap the screen and speak 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.
Integrated FM Traffic Receiver
 |
Steer clear of traffic with an integrated FM traffic receiver designed to receive alerts from TMC Clear Channel about traffic tie-ups and road construction that might lie ahead on your route. All you have to do is simply touch the screen to view traffic details and you’ll be ready to detour around any problem area. And if you end up missing a turn, or you’re forced into a detour that is not relayed through the traffic receiver, the n?vi’s sophisticated automatic routing will get you back on track in no time.
In most areas, TMC Clear Channel traffic broadcasts are continuous — there’s no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. Because traffic broadcasts are received via a “silent” FM data channel, you can still listen to music or news programming on your car radio without interference from incoming FM traffic data transmissions.
A 3-month subscription to TMC Clear Channel’s Total Traffic Network is included with purchase of this device. For more information on subscription fees, coverage in individual cities, and traffic data networks in the United Kingdom and Europe, check the Garmin website.

Customer Review: Great GPS
I just received this product from Amazon yesterday. I was a little leary to purchase this through Amazon due to the reviews/comments regarding updating the maps and such. I have bought numerous items from Amazon.com. I have never had any problems. And this time wasn’t any different. The update for the maps was smooth, took forever, but no problems whatsoever. We haven’t traveled on a trip yet but we used it to “navigate” to work today and we LOVE it! It has wonderful features. I researched which model met our needs and this is everything I expected it to be and needed it to be. So don’t let the negative feedback about Amazon.com sway you from buying this from them. It is a great savings to get it from them and the Garmin website is easy to navigate and register and update the product.
Customer Review: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
I am extremely happy with the performance and functionality of nuvi 760,is my choice #1

Customer Review: I love love it
I love this product…..I am on a budget with this baby and needed something to orginize the nursery and baby clothing. Despite the reviews when I ordered this product, I bought it anayways. I know how picky people can be!!!. I hate to put things together and I did put this together prefectly in about 20-30 mins and it is sturdy for me!!! I would Buy again!!!! Mommyof3iniowa
Customer Review: Great for cloth diaper storage!
Cloth diapers and all the accessories can get pretty bulky and storage was a big issue for me until I got this cart. It was a complete pain to put together, yes. It’s not terribly sturdy either, this is true. And on mine at least, the wheels don’t snap in, they just sort of sit inside the legs and fall out if you move it. Having said that, if the cart is going to sit still and be what it’s supposed to be - lightweight baby storage, it’s perfect! It holds all my diapers, keeps everything at my fingers for easy access and makes it really easy for me to put things away, since I don’t have to open and stuff drawers full. I LOVE this cart for what it is. For the price, don’t expect something your kids can climb all over…you get what you pay for I think.
Super Dodge Ball Advance
As the most malicious playground game ever (well, next to the social anxiety of musical chairs), dodge ball gets its proper, playful venue on the Game Boy Advance with Super Dodge Ball Advance. The game, based on the NES classic, takes place in the not-so-distant future when the sport of preteens has become the sport of kings and national pride hangs on the home team’s ability to triumph in the number-one worldwide sport. Gamers choose a national team and compete against eight other countries in tournament-style bouts. You can knock the competition woozy with all sorts of different moves (that slam-a-jam jump-throw is our favorite), customize your team by defining the attributes of your players, and play head-to-head against a friend’s Game Boy Advance with the separately sold communication cable.
Used Price: $12.11
Customer Review: Awesome Game
Super Dodge Ball Advanced is a great game. In my opinion, its got lots of replay value. Sure, you can beat it in a half hour or less, but its a sports game, so you can keep playing. The graphics are average, but how good graphics do you need to play a dodge ball game anyway. The music is alright, but a little repetitive. The game can be either really hard or really easy and anything in between with the five difficulty settings and other settings too such as, how tough it is to throw a super throw. You can link up, but I never have so I couldn’t tell you how fun that is. To sum it up here is a list of pros and cons. PROS- 1. Good replay value 2. Multiple diffuclty settings 3. Average graphics 4. Appropriate for all ages, but then again, what isn’t 5. Its dodgeball 6. Game Link compatible 7. You can name characters and teams even not your own CONS- 1. Repetative music 2. Unlike the NES game, there isn’t a bean ball mode(mode that pits you individually against your teammates on a field) 3. Also unlike the classic, there aren’t any River City Ransom Graphics, instead people don’t even have noses. If you never played River City Ransom, the old dodgeball game or World Cup just forget that con 4. There is no team creator, which really, really sucks. That also ruins the whole point of versus mode too because you both have the same premade teams with just possible name differences. 5. Too short of a game, needs more teams or something.
Customer Review: Fun but shallow
This game is a blast but I must say its extremly shawdow. Fans of the old dodge ball game from an older nintendo system will probly love this game, I did but then I unlocked everything in a hour or so, sure there is more matches to play but its just a bunch of the same, I wore this game out in a day or two which is a shame because its a great game…just not enough substance. Get it if you pay $$$ or less definatly, think about it strongly otherwise.
The miniature transformation giant is what the manufacturer calls this, and we agree! Most shopping trolleys take up a lot of space and storage, especially for city dwellers with small living spaces. However a trolley is practical and this one here is the perfect solution to a dilemma. The storage is built in! It can be folded three times and stowed away in its’ own outside pocket! This is possible by means of the special design of the wheels which can be flattened thanks to a spring mechanism. So your large shopping assistant turns into a small package neatly stowable anywhere. Made in Germany. Folded: 9.45 x 12.6 x 2 in. Open: 28.75 x 13 x 9 in.
