It even announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road.

Amazon.com Product Description This is a refurbished GPS. Refurbished generally means that the unit has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the navigator back to like new conditions. Some GPS may contain cosmetic blemishes.
Garmin's nüvi 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 nüvis, 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 nüvi 760 and 770 add integrated traffic receivers and Bluetooth capability for hands-free calling. The nüvi 770 adds maps for Europe. The nüvi 780 adds enhanced MSN direct content capability.. Which nüvi is Best for You?: Click here to see a quick, simple comparison of features for all Garmin nuvi GPS navigators  Garmin's nüvis 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 nüvi 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 nüvi 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 nüvi 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. Hands-Free Calling In more and more places, it is becoming illegal to use cell phones while driving without a hands-free kit. WIth Bluetooth capability, microphone and speaker, you can match your nüvi to any bluetooth-capable phone to make hands-free mobile phone calls. Simply dial the phone number with the nüvi's touch screen keypad to make a call on a compatible phone. To answer an incoming call, just tap the screen and speak into the built-in microphone. Making and taking calls on the road has never been easier, or safer. In addition, Garmin makes it a breeze to look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or even tap into your cell phone's call history log. Integrated FM Traffic Receiver 
| Steer clear of traffic with an integrated FM traffic receiver designed to receive alerts from TMC Clear Channel about traffic tie-ups and road construction that might lie ahead on your route. All you have to do is simply touch the screen to view traffic details and you'll be ready to detour around any problem area. And if you end up missing a turn, or you're forced into a detour that is not relayed through the traffic receiver, the nüvi's sophisticated automatic routing will get you back on track in no time. In most areas, TMC Clear Channel traffic broadcasts are continuous â there's no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. Because traffic broadcasts are received via a "silent" FM data channel, you can still listen to music or news programming on your car radio without interference from incoming FM traffic data transmissions.
A 3-month subscription to TMC Clear Channel's Total Traffic Network is included with purchase of this device. For more information on subscription fees, coverage in individual cities, and traffic data networks in the United Kingdom and Europe, check the Garmin website.

Garmin Nuvi GPS June 2, 2010 D. Andrew Johnson (San Diego) This is about the 5th Garmin I have bought through Amazon. I bought the Nuvi 760 because it is just like the ones I already have and it has all the 'features' I need. Why pay more for a newer model, when they are more expensive and don't have any new innovations that make the cost worth it.
I shop Amazon because they sell excellent products about the cheapest I can find anywhere. With free shipping and NO Sales Tax, it is impossible to beat the bottom line cost at Amazon.
Corrupted voice prompt March 10, 2010 D. Vuong The voice prompt is corrupted every now and then. The prompt is interrupted or hesitated like the unit is busy doing. The sound is interrupted similar to watching a movie online when it is not buffering fast enough.

Disappointed with this version December 9, 2009 D. Novakoff (Wilmington, DE) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had Garmin's in the past, and decided to upgrade to a larger screen and smaller unit with this purchase.
The first problem I noticed was that when the volume was set to 100%, the speaker clipped out. Maybe that's why it was a refurb? But if so they should have fixed it. It's very annoying and for the most part the volume needed to be 100% to hear it over the road noise and radio.
The FM Transmitter... useless. When using it, you can't listen to your radio. But worse than that, there's a lot of static no matter which station I tried.
Finally... it displays the speed limit, but this was highly inaccurate. Many roads I was on showed different posted speed limits so I'm not sure how useful this feature is.
I'm still giving 3 stars because the GPS functionality itself is good, including the text-to-speech. But this unit had issues and I returned it to look for a different model without the FM Transmitter and hopefully the speaker will be fine.
Garmin Nuvi 760 - 2nd buy - 'Nuff said December 5, 2009 Steven W. Shull (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the second Garmin Nuvi 760 my family has purchased. Of course that should clearly indicate my thoughts on this product. It has the necessary bells and whistles, bluetooth, FM radio connectivity, MP3, live trafic updates, etc . .
Before buying this refurbished model I looked for a newer Garmin at the local big boxes. What I found is that although the newer Garmins had a few more technical improvements (in the display in particular) they all had one common failing. For some reason Garmin has changed their mounting charger/FM receiver configuration. The 760 is perfect. That should have been the model for all future mounting systems. Instead theyu made some changes making the installation a little more cumbersome, just enough to make it inconvenient.
