Garmin nüvi 360 Sets to Revolutionize Navigation

Garmin is set to revolutionize the navigation system with its features packed nuvi 360. It is simple in design and offers a pretty small footprint while still offering a good 3.5-inch screen.

Nuvi 360 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator® NT street maps, including hefty points of interest database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply touch the color sunlight-readable screen to enter a destination, and nuvi takes you there with 2-D or 3-D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. It even announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road.

In addition, nuvi 360 accepts custom points of interest, such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. The European version even includes a preloaded safety camera database containing the location of safety cameras for parts of Europe.

Avoid traffic jams with the addition of an optional FM TMC traffic receiver and traffic services. By adding these to your nuvi, you are notified of accidents or road construction ahead on your route. Simply touch the screen to view traffic details or recalculate your route to avoid traffic. Select nuvi 360 models also include an integrated traffic receiver and services.

It has a Bluetooth wireless technology with a built-in microphone and speaker, so you can pair it with your compatible Bluetooth phone. Then talk hands-free through the 360 while staying focused on the road. Simply dial numbers with nuvi's touch screen keypad to make a call. To answer calls, just tap nuvi's screen and speak directly into its built-in microphone. You can also easily look up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or from your phone's call history log.
