    Garmin Nuvi 880 Portable GPS Device


    (Page 1 of 4 )

    If you're in the market for a GPS device, you can't afford to overlook the latest model in Garmin's Nuvi line. The Garmin Nuvi 880 will blow you away with features that are hard to find on other GPS devices. Keep reading to find out how this portable navigation device will make your travels easier and safer.

    Introduction

    Garmin's expansive line ofNuvi Deviceshave long been in good standing with techies the world over, but the popular company can now proudly add another successful product to their impressive roster. Garmin has hit a home run with its Nuvi 880 Portable GPS Device, which is being called the best and most accurate GPS device on the market. With each new product, the company has proven that you can expect more of the same, including solid features and an overall excellent performance. Not only will the Nuvi 880 blow your mind, but it will also blow other GPS devices out of the water.

    The most impressive aspect of the 880 is its voice recognition capabilities. If you've grown tired of GPS devices with limited capabilities, problems with accuracy and a voice recognition system that requires you to repeat the same thing over and over again, the new Nuvi 880 is for you. With an ease of use that's almost unheard of, this GPS device recognizes 30 voice commands with startling accuracy and is equipped with an impressive range of features that are compatible with other devices, such as Bluetooth.

    Many other devices have a less-than-stellar voice recognition system, which requires you to use the touch-screen while driving to perform the most trivial and common of tasks, and they also have a tendency to interrupt the proceedings. This is not the case with the new Nuvi 880. Impressed? You should be.

    Garmin's 880 is the first GPS navigation unit with afully-integratedvoice recognition system. This premium GPS device is the personification of cutting edge, state-of-the-art consumer electronics; there's nothing else like it, and the so-called competition doesn't even come close. Aside from having an extensive vocabulary, the system enables a driver to enter destinations and flip through menus without having to touch the device's screen, and even more amazing is the fact that it's capable of doing this in several different languages.
