Explore Garmin’s Slim Portable 1300 Series

January 14, 2010 by  

The ultra- slender nüvi 1300 has a widescreen monitor, yet it’s lean and light enough to take along on all your travels. It is a relatively low- end unit in Garmin’s newest nuvi series. This low-priced GPS is included with regional mapping, announces streets by name, provides pedestrian navigation choices and calculates a more fuel- efficient route with ecoRoute.

Twenty- five percent more compact than other nüvis, you’ll be able to take the ultra- thin Garmin nuvi 1300 anywhere. It without difficulty fits in your pocket or purse, and its rechargeable lithium- ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.

View detail, driving directions, photos and more in bright, brilliant color. Its sunlight- readable, 4. 3- inch monitor is hassle-free to read — from any direction.

nüvi 1300′s user-friendly interface greets you with two simple questions: “Where To? ” and “View. ” Touch the color screen to without difficulty lookup addresses and services and get voice- prompted, turn- by- turn directions that speak street names to your destination. It comes preloaded with City Navigator NT street maps for the continental U. S. , Hawaii and Puerto Rico or one European region or country(click versions tab to view all) , millions of points of interest(POIs) , and 2- D or 3- D maps. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. With the 1300′s enhanced user interface, you are able to slide your finger to conveniently scroll between screens. You can also upload POIs. And with HotFix satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your position greater to get you there quicker.

Direction-finding is just the beginning. nüvi 1300 saves you gas and money with ecoRoute — a green feature that calculates the most fuel- efficient route, tracks fuel usage and more. The 1300 includes many travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. With photo navigation, it is possible to download pictures from Garmin Connect Photos and navigate to them. It’s also agreeable with lifetime traffic alerts or MSN Direct(receiver purchase required for either option) . With its “Where Am I? ” emergency locator, you always know your location. Simply tap the screen to get your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, additionally, the closest hospitals, police stations and fuel stations. The 1300 sports Garmin Lock, an anti- theft feature, and is compatible with our free Garmin Garage where it is possible to download custom custom voices and vehicles. Boost your travel experience with optional plug- in microSD cards.

What models apart the Garmin nuvi 1350 from the Garmin nuvi 1300 is that the widescreen nüvi 1350 redefines portable, low cost navigation. This really- thin GPS has preloaded maps for North America or Europe, announces streets by name, guides you to the proper lane for navigation, presents pedestrian navigation options and calculates a more fuel- efficient route with ecoRoute.

On top of that the better edition of the nuvi 1350, that is the widescreen Garmin nüvi 1350T adds free traffic alerts to the nuvi 1350. In addition, this ultra- thin GPS has preloaded maps for North America or Europe, announces streets by name, guides you to the proper lane for navigation, includes pedestrian navigation alternatives and calculates a more fuel- efficient route with ecoRoute.

    Did you try to turn off the GPS to see if it still happened? Is your opener wired into the car or is it a simple hand held one? Is your GPS wired into the car or is it an after market one?

    Whether same-sex civil unions become legal in Hawaii is now up to Republican Gov. Linda Lingle, whose office was flooded Friday with phone calls and e-mails from gay rights and religious groups after the bill won approval in the waning moments of the legislative session.

    Bashing Libya seems the easy way for some people, Well you know how the proverb goes “the empty vessel makes the most noise”. Adam, it sounds like you had a nice trip and a very good experience in Libya, living it as it is. If every country in the world had the same setup and the donalds and comfort, people would not take the time to travel to experience. Best to all

    Well time a clocks is a great subject. We have lots of clocks in the house. Well not alot. Just about 10 in total. Out of all those I have the computer and a tiny travel clock and one next to my bed that works. All the rest don't work or need batteries. We have some beautiful wood burl clocks my husband made. But our main clock we use in the main living area is a tiny travel clock. Keeping time has never been very important for me. I have one watch and only wear it when going to town to make sure I get to everything before it closes. Hope you are having the time of your life… Hugs Carrie

    Hello, Marcus. We're a nonprofit bicycle advocacy group in Puerto Rico. We'd be interested in showing Pushing North to audiences in Puerto Rico, free of charge and strictly for educational purposes. Our objective is to motivate more people to ride their bicycles in Puerto Rico, especially in an urban environment and as a form of transport. We also want to show people in Puerto Rico what people in other parts of the globe are doing with their bicycles. By doing this, we hope to help develop a bicycle lifestyle and culture in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico has one of the highest concentration of cars and roads, per square mile, on Earth. We would like to see more bicycles here, and less cars. Would you be interested in helping us?

    Thanks for your consideration,
