The StreetPilot 2610 - 3 Deluxe Review

StreetPilot® 2610

Now you can have the best in automotive navigation right at your fingertips - the StreetPilot 2610 with touch-screen and remote control. Even back seat drivers can look up a destination and direct StreetPilot to route to it
using the remote control. Turn-by-turn directions and voice prompts clearly guide you along the way. The 2610 comes with mounts, MapSource® City Navigator(tm) CD with detailed coverage of Europe and a 256 MB CF card for storing maps. With downloaded maps, you can look up addresses and search for the nearest hotels and other services. And since it's portable, you can use the 2610 in multiple vehicles and take it on trips and use it in rental
cars.

Garmin has raised the bar for portable automotive navigation with two new products: the StreetPilot 2610

Just choose your destination using StreetPilot’s touch screen or remote control to be automatically guided with turn-by-turn directions and voice prompts. Both the 2610 and 2650 feature color displays, built-in maps, and everything needed to download additional map detail and look up points of interest and addresses in seconds. Select maps and transfer data directly to the unit through a USB connection and onto a standard CompactFlash® memory card. These products are powered using the external speaker with 12/24-volt adapter cable or A/C power adapter (both are included in the purchase).

The StreetPilot 2650 also has dead reckoning capabilities, so you’ll continue to get navigation guidance even if you lose GPS reception, such as in intense urban environments with tall buildings and tunnels. To achieve dead reckoning, the 2650 features an internal angular rate sensor, an external speed sensor input, and an external reverse light sensor input. (Please note: The StreetPilot 2650 can only be purchased through authorized installation dealers because the product requires a connection to a vehicle's speedometer and backup lights. Customers will not be able to buy this product over the counter or install it themselves.)
