Smart, Powerful Design
The nuevi 270 is built with a high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver for extreme accuracy, as well as an SD card slot for storing your media and additional navigation tools, and a USB interface for loading data. All this is wrapped up in a package that measures 3.8 x 2.8 x .8 inches (W x H x D) and weighs just 5.2 ounces. The nuevi 270's 3.5-inch (diagonal) display is touchscreen-enabled, making it a cinch to control the device with your fingertips. A rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to five hours of battery life depending on use.

Navigate with Ease
nuevi 270 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. Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nuevi takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. In addition, nuevi 270 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.

It also comes with Garmin Lock, an anti-theft feature, and configurable vehicle icons that let you select car-shaped graphics to show your location on the map. Optional plug-in SD cards for our line of Garmin Travel Guides and Garmin SaversGuide provide detailed data for attractions and information on nearby merchants offering discounts, so you can customize nuevi for your travel needs.

5 out of 5 stars Great for Europe   January 5, 2009

Served us well on a trip to Spain, Malaga and Cordoba areas, even Gibraltar. Not only showed us the roads and gave directions, even warned of location of "speed cameras."


4 out of 5 stars great in usa..not so great in Italy   January 5, 2009

I love the Garmen 270 in the usa. It is easy to read and I use it frequently. However it did not help in Venice, Italy or Florence, Italy. I could not get oriented in either city.

I bought one for my son and one for my father-in-law for christmas. It has been very easy to use for both. I was worried about giving it to my father-in-law because he is not very good with high tech gadgets but he has been able to use it with no troble. The price is also a great value.


5 out of 5 stars easy to start, easy to use   January 1, 2009

I live in Brazil and wanted to buy A GPS navigator that could be used both in the USA and in Europe. So far I did use it only in yhe USA and the experience has been a very good one. Since I will be using the product on rented/leased cars I bought also the portable dashbord support, that I fully approved too.
Resuming: very easy to install and excellent funcionality.
