Garmin nuvi Entry-Level GPS Navigators Like Getting Touched

You won’t find any messy buttons on the new Garmin nuvi 200, 250, and 270 because all three of these new portable GPS navigators come with 3.5-inch QVGA touchscreen displays. To add to the sleek and the neat appearance, the antenna on these direction-giving puppies is completely internal.

Looking up and down the rest of the feature list, you’ll discover an SD card slot, rechargeable lithium-ion battery, turn-by-turn guidance with voice prompts, Garmin Lock theft prevention, and preloaded maps for your area of choice. The three units are functionally identical, except that the 200, 250, and 270 come pre-loaded with info for Germany, Europe, and Europe/USA, respectively.

No word on price, but we’re expecting a May launch.
