The wonderful entry-level device at affordable price.

Garmin Nuvi 1300 has a 3.5 inch touch-sensitive display. As many other Garmin navigators do, Nuvi 1300 gets information about traffic jams and makes a rout to a destination based on this information.
Also this device is equipped with a calculator, a currency converter and an image viewer shell.
The one of main advantages of Nuvi 1300 is Text-To-Speech function. This function uses a voice which will suggest you not only what way and in how many meters to turn, but it will pronounce names of streets!
This auto navigator will be the best choice for those people who appreciate simplicity of use and friendly menus.
You don’t have to do any special actions, since to set it in your car and switch on would be absolutely enough. It is fair to say that you may control your navigator by intuition even without using a manual.
There are following function the navigator possesses: ecoRoute function (optimal parameters for petrol consumption), "Where Am I?" (location of the nearest hospitals, refueling stations, police stations), Garmin Connect™ Photos (photo posting), Garmin Lock™ (protection against thieves), Garmin Garage (your own automobile icon running across a map), HotFix (fast start and satellites search).
You will never be alone in the big city with the Garmin Nuvi 1300 navigator!

Get a new wonderful driving experience and save your money with Nuvi 200W! Like all other nuvi devices, this portable navigator has a very friendly and easy interface.
Extensive features and a brilliant widescreen display await you in this inexpensive and easy-to-use portable navigator GPS Nuvi 265W.
Some time ago we couldn’t even dream of such benefits, as all we were suggested was just an options package for a large sum of money. Now the users are provided with a number of package offers, including the Garmin nuvi 260 portable gps navigator. It comprises Suction cup mount, Charger Cable, cradle and user instruction. 













Good navigator
Advantages: Perfect device. Has the map of Russia 5.18 and Europe 2010. Searches satellites for about 1-3 minutes (depends on how long it was working before). I took it with me in Europe (Germany, Italy). In Rome it led to the right place working in pedestrian mode without any errors of “100 meters”. As to Kaliningrad (living there) the navigator works well. Have no complaints upon it. A battery holds its charge for stated 4 hours (though, at minimum brightness). Maps are loading fast (look map settings).
Disadvantages: Maps don’t indicate roads of one-way traffic. This is of map producers’ competence. There is no a charging unit in the set. If you will buy this device, choose the one of 1 A (there has to be written on). I bought earlier of less nominal, so I could hardly charge it.
