The Nüvi 780’s Enhanced Features
Garmin has strategically partnered with Microsoft’s MSN Direct so that it is able to provide its users with various services based on current location. Because of this great move, you can now view locations, send and receive reports, and find latest Points of Interest with just the touch of the screen. You can now plan out the route to your destination the fastest and easiest way possible because you are constantly informed about the traffic situation.
When you view the map screen, you can see the speed limit and the estimated arrival time. New to the 700-series is the speed limit indicator so that you avoid run-in with the law. Plus, you can pair it with your cell phone via the Bluetooth upon set up. Now, calling and driving can be done simultaneously. Just synch the device with your phone so that you can view your menu on the wide screen. Plus, the screen also doubles as a dial pad when calling someone.
Garmin’s map screen is very well implemented and carefully designed. Everything is easy to understand. It does an amazing job displaying key information minus the clutter and confusion. If you need to search for an establishment, for instance, just tap on a category from the menu so you can choose the available places nearest you. A few of the featured categories are: food, lodging, recreation, attraction, ATM, and other services you may need during your drive.
With Garmin’s latest installment, you can now successfully work side by side with the nüvi 780.
