Articles and Reviews

•   Garmin nuvi 260 review    
  • "The Garmin nuvi 260 is the nicest of Garmin's budget-line nuvi 200 series. This is a basic, no frills unit, but it has Garmin's intuitive interface and something the other 200 series units don't -- the ability to call out street names. That way you'll get "turn left on Highway 128 in 200 feet", rather than just "turn left in 200 feet." Other than that, it's identical to the nuvi 250. Both units have a 3.5" color touch screen, six million points of interest (POIs), and preloaded maps of the U.S. and Canada. The nuvi 260W has the same feature set as the 260, but adds a wider, 4.3" screen."
