Amazon.com Product Description -- January 8, 2008 Garmin's nuevi 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 nuevis, 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 nuevi 760 and 770 add integrated traffic receivers and Bluetooth capability for hands-free calling. The nuevi 770 adds maps for Europe. The nuevi 780 adds enhanced MSN direct content capability.

Garmin's nuevis pack top of the line features into a slim form factor.
Wider screen lets you see more of what's around. Compare these actual size views of a 3-inch (diagonal) screen
and a 4.3-inch diagonal widescreen
New Features -- Where Am I? Where's My Car? The nuevi 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 nuevi 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 nuevi 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

Great GPSDecember 1, 2008 THis unit is excellent...it has a very good signal and easy to use. I would recommend this to anyone.
good basic navigation, but many problemsNovember 27, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
i've owned the nuvi 750 for 8 or 9 months now. this review is applicable to the 750, 760, 770, and 780.
pros:
(1) once it's locked onto satellites, it is very accurate and stays locked.
(2) it picks good routes most of the time.
(3) the displayed and spoken directions work well.
in general, it implements the basic function of getting you from point A to point B well.
cons:
(1) horrible, horrible user interface when running on battery power and the power gets low. it beeps and fills the screen with a "battery low" message and waits for you to hit OK. this would be just fine if it did it once, but it just keeps doing it about every 10 seconds, no matter how many times you hit OK. the unit becomes very irritating and essentially unusable (since, most of the time, the screen is filled with the "battery low" dialog box). even worse, it goes into this routine LONG before the batteries actually run out, so this stupid behaviour greatly decreases the usable battery life of the unit (and continues to do it with firmware flashed on 11/26/2008).
you might think this doesn't concern you, since you'll keep your unit plugged in, however all of the following have happened to me: walking on foot in cities, driving in a rental vehicle with a non-working cigarette lighter socket, and having the end piece of the garmin car charging cable come unscrewed and get lost.
(2) the built-in database of restaurants, stores, etc. has major problems. i could forgive it being a little out of date, but it often takes me to random places, sometimes even remote deserted areas, where there obviously never has been a restaurant or store of any kind. this is incredibly frustrating, especially when you're in a hurry.
(3) start-up time is way too long. sometimes it feels like it's taking FOREVER to find satellites.
in summary, when it works it's great, but it has some serious design flaws, which would make me think twice about ever buying garmin again.
I don't get lost anymoreNovember 23, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This product is very easy to use. Right out of the box I was able to put it to use. What I like is it shows the cross streets so you know you are on the right path. Now I am relaxed when I am driving a new route. I know my GPS will alert me when my exit is approaching.
Perfect!November 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This GPS device is perfect. You'll never get lost again! The only thing that makes a GPS bad, is a low quality map. But this is not garmin's fault.
The only thing I think it must get better is the translation text for brazilian portuguese. Some words are translated to portuguese from portugal.
Portable ConvenienceNovember 19, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We're pleased with the Garmin 750 GPS. It's able to get you almost anywhere you want to go - except our house and a friend's house in a small rural community, but that's true of all GPS units. The sticky base no longer adheres to the dash, after just 2 days of high temperatures, but one of the friction bases should solve that problem. The portabilty is a money saver with 2 cars, alternately used for longer trips, and the larger screen is a plus for my husband who has large fingers and can't type on the smaller screens. I'd recommend this product, just don't throw away all your maps.
