Just like the Pharohs of Alexandria guided mariners safely into port, the PDR250 from Pharos GPS will route you to your destination with ease. The ultra sensitive 20-channel SiRFstarIII GPS receiver pinpoints your location to within 5 meters and tracks your velocity to 0.1 meter per second for fast, accurate positioning. Satellite acquisition times from 8 (hot) to 45 (cold) seconds get you on the way quickly.
With the built-in US and Canadian maps and NAVTEQ On Board, you can travel with confidence wherever you go. Millions of built-in points of interest make it easy to find a gas station, restaurant or some bit of local color to help you enjoy the journey, not just the destination. Directions are displayed on a 4.3" TFT screen with a 480x272 resolution for great detail.
In addition to the 12V power cable that plugs into your car to keep you going on long trips there is also an AC adapter so you can charge the PDR250 at home or in your hotel overnight. A USB cable is included for easy updates. So, mount it on your dash and drive!
