The Perfect Holiday Gift For The Traveller
Although the Nüvi 255 GPS System doesn’t have the very latest high-tech options (like built-in traffic alerts), owners report that it navigates expertly, with a hefty points of interest (POIs) database featuring hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs and more. Like the rest of Garmin’s Nüvi 2×5-series, the Nüvi 255 sports a sleek, thin design and fits nicely in your pocket or purse.

It even announces the name of exits and streets, so you don’t have to take your mind off driving. Just touch the intuitive screen to enter a destination, and Nüvi takes you there with helpful voice directions, 2-D or 3-D maps and smooth map redraw rates as you drive.
Are survellience cameras popping up in your neighborhood? The Nüvi 255 GPS System accepts custom Points of Interest like safety cameras and school zones, and warns you of upcoming POIs.
Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot. A “Where am I” feature tells you the closest intersection, gas station or hospital. Simply tap the screen to get your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and fuel stations.
- Accepts custom (POI), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts
- Auto re-route (fast off-route and detour recalculation)
- microSD™ card (not included)
- Rechargeable lithium-ion battery
- 3.5\\\” color touch screen display
GPS is just the beginning. The Nüvi 255 includes many extra tools including a JPEG picture viewer, international clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. With photo navigation, you can download Google™ Panoramio™ pictures via the Garmin Connect™ Photos website and navigate to them. The 255 is compatible with optional enhanced MSN® Direct content (subscription and receiver required) and the free Garmin Garage where you can download animated vehicles that show your location on the map. It also comes with Garmin Lock™, an anti-theft feature. Enhance your driving experience with optional plug-in microSD cards such as Garmin Travel Guides for extensive data on attractions.
So if you are looking for the perfect gift for a loved one this holiday season, without breaking the bank, it’s hard to beat the Garmin Nüvi 255.
