Garmin Nuvi 260W GPS
Go wide with the ultra-cool nüvi 260W that speaks street names. This widescreen navigator is attractively-priced and simple to use. Like the rest of the nüvi 200-series, you're just a few screen taps away from anywhere.

Navigate With Ease
nüvi 260W comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator NT street maps, including a hefty points of interest (POIs) database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. It even announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road. Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there with 2-D or 3-D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. In addition, nüvi 260W accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs.

Take It With YouLike the rest of the nüvi 200-series, nüvi 260W sports a sleek, slim design and fits comfortably in your pocket or purse. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.

It also comes with Garmin Lock, an anti-theft feature, and is compatible with our free Garmin Garage where you can download custom vehicles that show your location on the map. Optional plug-in SD cards let you add additional features. Purchase Garmin Travel Guides for detailed data on attractions and our SaversGuide for information on nearby merchants offering discounts to customize nüvi for your travel needs.

Garmin Nuvi 260W GPS Reviews

REVIEW BY: Reviewed Aug 05, 2008

BEST UNIT I OWNED!!!Precision and speed of signal is greatly improved in expense of some unwanted futures like playing games (driving and playing?) or listening to MP3s (but don't u have radio and CD player in the car?). No bluetooth (but I have one in my ear instead and it goes with me when I leave the car). I chose Garmin Nuvi 260W GPS over 200W (less POI's) or 250W for TTS text-to-speech. It works great with spoken names of the streets. Lookup of POIs works great even with NEAR future showing you POI closest to you and rest of the chocies behind on the list. My previous GPS from Magellan was so much slower. I would buy 260W again if given the choice. Great for NAVIGATION, less for PLAYING.
