After some time I decided to buy a satellite navigator. In truth was to be a gift, but I anticipated, went into a big shopping mall, and after several wander for electronics stores, I found what struck me.

In recent weeks had seen various models, but the choice (even for the Board of committed) has fallen on one of the many Garmin.
>>>>> Why I chose:
size, convenience, functions, excellent value for money, seemed more nice compared to the other exposed.

The name of Garmin has convinced me, and I believe that in recent times has exceeded its famous + competitor.
After a wander among the showcase where they were exposed boaters, and after a careful reading of characteristics, I decided: Garmin Nuvi 200 ...
****** Features:
I chose because it was one of the few in which they are loaded not only maps of Italy but across Europe.
>>> Display
touchscreen size of 2.8x2.1 inches, very clear and with a good contrast, even changing the brightness by good results (the variation increases or decreases of 10%).

>>> Installation
very simple, in the package is the support windy with easy assembly (2 pieces to fit in)
recharges directly by cigar-lighter, and then with a voltage 12V.
On the left side you can insert the memory card

It works by jpeg viewer. In fact already are loaded by default certain backgrounds that can be viewed as ignition or when things are going in stand-by
Lights up with a snap button in the upper right after the ignition is the first screen where you can enter your destination or see the entire map; map that can be enlarged and / or moved with a simple touch of the finger.
Research is intuitive,
you can load default positions (eg.: housing, points of interest, etc. etc.)
itineraries can be customized by entering stops, rerouting or simply choosing the most appropriate route to our needs (short, fast, economic)

Pre-charged, together with maps, you also have positions Safety (which still have to use ...)
The customization also allows inserting a pin 4 digits, keep locked in our unit, finally, but I think it is something logical and common to all apparatus of this kind, adjusting the volume of voice and zoom the map.
> Display
There are various models of display:
map standard
travel information, where displays all the information relating to travel speed, wind, time remaining to destination, temperature, etc. ....
a list of all the turns and distances to be travelled;
and a mixed display.

What is very nice how Pedestrian and Bicycle, where our small unit guides us into paths and pre-affixed created if we do 2 steps, or make a race on 2 wheels.
For further changes, such as: change the machine model, change background, upload information about festivals, special events, we must connect at the site of Garmin, which I will describe and implementing the opinion.

> Extra Features
there are also other functions, as hour global currency converter and measures, calculator ...
In short, I bought only a few days ago but I am already very pleased, especially for the ease of use, the wealth of settings, ease of use in general thanks to a simple and intuitive.

Its price is € 169 (270 dollars about), but with an additional 10.90 € (17 dollars) the shoppers have given me the extended warranty for another 4 years.
Perhaps the only defect is the female voice, not very sensual ... ;)

Condition Guarantee important is that by the Garmin:
in the first 10 days is total, that covers 100% theft damage or malfunction.
As council said at the purchase especially for the excellent value for money.
