The Garmin nuvi line is already known for being the easiest-to-use automotive navigation system available - now it's priced to fit any budget, as well!
Garmin International and Tiger GPS are pleased to announce the new nuvi 650 GPS navigator and personal travel assistant. This affordable widescreen GPS navigator includes many of the same exciting features found in the nuvi 660, but does not include Bluetooth wireless technology or an FM transmitter. Items such as the AC charger, carrying case and FM traffic receiver are sold separately.
The nuvi 650 comes preloaded with highly detailed City Navigator NT road maps for North America. This map database features nearly six million points of interest, including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs and attractions. The map data is provided by NAVTEQ, a world leader in premium-quality mapping. Like the original nuvi models, the 650 has unique traveler's reference tools like optional Garmin Travel Guide, Garmin Language Guide and SaversGuide.
