The pocket-sized Garmin nüvi 255 gives you turn-by-turn voice directions with spoken street names and a touch-sensitive, full-color 3.5" screen, so it’s easy to stay on course! The nüvi mounts quickly with the included suction cup mount and dash disk, and pops off with a gentle tug, so you can take it with you. The Li-ion battery lets you use nüvi to navigate on foot for up to 4 hours between charges, so you can let it lead the charge when you’re making sales calls or out for a day of shopping conquests.
The unit ships with preloaded regional maps and includes a huge database of Points of Interest (POI), like gas stations, restaurants, attractions and parks, and shopping. You can also use the Garmin POI Loader software (free download) to install custom POI, like traffic camera locations and school zones, and then set proximity alerts to warn you when you’re approaching one.
It also supports an FM traffic receiver (receiver and subscription sold separately) to help you avoid sitting in traffic jams. The Garmin nüvi 255 is a slick entry into the auto GPS market with a great price!
