Garmin's nüvi 700 series brings two exciting new features -- multi-destination routing and, 'Where am I?/Where's my car?' -- to its popular pocket-sized GPS navigator lineup. As with all nüvis, you get Garmin reliability, the fast satellite lock of an integrated high-sensitivity receiver, a slim, pocket-sized design with a gorgeous display, an easy, intuitive interface, and detailed NAVTEQ maps for the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico with more than 6 million name-searchable points of interest. All of the 700-series navigators also feature a rich array of features including spoken directions in real street names, MP3 player and photo viewer, and an FM transmitter that will play voice prompts, MP3s, audio books, and more, directly through your vehicle's stereo system. The nüvi 760 and 770 add integrated traffic receivers and Bluetooth capability for hands-free calling. The nüvi 770 adds maps for Europe. The nüvi 780 adds enhanced MSN direct content capability.

New Features -- Where Am I? Where's My Car?
The nüvi 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 nüvi 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 nüvi 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.
Garmin Lock
Garmin's patent pending theft prevention system that disables the unit from performing any functions until the user types in a specific 4-digit PIN or takes the unit to a predetermined secure location
Easy To Use Interface
Garmin's interface is a key to their success and one of the things that makes their devices such a pleasure to use. Simple controls and sub-screens make it easy to enter or search for destinations and get data about your trip.
Beyond Navigation
Browse your stored pictures with an easy-to-use JPEG viewer. |  A handy MP3 player lets you play songs stored on SD memory cards. |  nüvi 250W accepts custom points of interest (POIs). View larger. |
Navigation is just the beginning. All nüvi 700s feature travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, MP3 player, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more.
They are also compatible with optional content plug-ins available via SD card, such as the Garmin Travel Guides and Garmin SaversGuide provide detailed data for attractions and information on nearby merchants offering discounts, so you can customize your nüvi for all your travel needs.
Garmin has also added the ability for customers to add custom points of interest (POI’s) from third parties such as school zones and safety cameras.

Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - An amazing machine
I've extensively tested this on two long trips in unfamiliar territory.It worked flawlessly.Acquiring satellites has a lot to do with where you are.In the city it takes a bit longer.But I'm never in that much of a hurry.In both highway and rural situations, I felt you got a long enough verbal warning of an upcoming turn.I had several situations where I was with a "local" and they scoffed at the directions saying there were turns shown that didn't exist, but they did exist.

This is a great product.It isn't 100% perfect but, very close to it.It is really hard to get lost when you use it to navigate.
Rating:  - garmin 750
this unit is pretty cool, i had the 350 and i loved it until it was stolen. the 750 has a few options that the 350 didnt have but honestly if i could go back in time i would have gotten the 350 again. however if you have to make like 10 stops then the trip planner of the 750 would be key. little advice, get theone with the live trific report. im kicking my self for not spending the extra 80 bucks.
Rating: - Great GPS for first-time user
Purchased this about a month ago.I am in sales and this has been a great addition when I'm on the road.It's easy to use and I love the Points of Interest feature - that is a lifesaver when traveling.I would definitely recommend this product if you're shopping for a GPS.
Rating: - Pretty solid
I've had this for a couple of days now along with my father who is technologically illiterate. He finds the unit very simple to use and that says something in itself. The screen is big, and I absolutely love it. I've noticed a lot of people saying that the it takes a while to acquire a satellite. Since I have a software upgrade OCD, I went to the garmin site to see if there are any other software that I could download for the device. Would you know there is a firmware upgrade for it that was recently ... Read More
