Customer Review: XP drivers don’t work
Worked great under 2000 but not XP. Others say differently, so you’re on your own.
Customer Review: Garmin USB Data card programmer
It would be impracticale to buy a memory card larger than 32 meg without buying this product. I had the 32 meg memory card, and it took about 8 hours to load the maps in using a serial connection (cut the battery life in half while flashing). Now I flash a 128 meg card with the usb programmer, and the total time to load ~127 megs of maps (including indexing time) is about 13 minutes. This was on a 400 MHz Windows 2000 computer. If you have a faster computer, it may be able to index the maps faster. I highly recommend this product.

Like many people, you may be wondering how GPS coordinate map readings are used by your GPS vehicle tracking system to pinpoint your vehicle’s exact location at any given time.

The simplest way to represent a point on a two-dimensional map is by using two lines that cross. One line goes up and down while another goes from side to side. Where they converge is the point you’re interested in. It could be a campsite or lake or waterfall, or wherever you’re standing at any given point in time - or - the location of your car.

GARMIN NUVI250 PERSONAL - TRAVEL ASSISTANT - NAVIGATION - GPS-AUTOMOTIVE

Simple navigation at an affordable price - that’s n vi 250. This entry-level Personal Travel Assistant comes with preloaded maps for North America. For added flexibility, choose n vi 270 with preloaded maps for both continents or save more with n vi 200 which offers less map coverage at a lower price. Like all n vi 200-series members, the 250 features an easy-to-use colorful touchscreen and ultra-slim design - perfect for everyday navigation.

Navigate With Ease
n vi 250 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 n vi takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. In addition, n vi 250 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.

Go Beyond Navigation
Navigation is just the beginning. n vi 250 includes many travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. 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 travel guides and a savings program provide detailed data for attractions and information on nearby merchants offering discounts, so you can customize n vi for your travel needs.
