Which Garmin Nuvi portable GPS should I buy for international travel: 370 or 670?
The Garmin Nuvi 370 is also a 3.5 inch screened unit that has added Bluetooth capability and comes pre-loaded with maps of the US and Europe. It has Bluetooth handsfree calling capabilities and will come with integrated TMC traffic capabilities. These services are usually free in Europe, but tend to cost $60 per year in the US. Expect the Nuvi 370 in Feb/March 2007; list price is $899. The Garmin Nuvi 670 is similar to the Nuvi 370, in that it comes with North American and European maps pre-loaded. It is Bluetooth handsfree and TMC traffic capable. It comes with the beautiful widescreen that is on the Nuvi 660. Which Nuvi to buy? Well you have to decide your budget. If you don’t have a Bluetooth Phone and don’t plan on getting one, then the handsfree capability is not helpful; look at the Nuvi 350. If you have some more bucks to spend, the Nuvi 660 and its wide screen is great. The three big advantages are the widescreen, the brightness of the screen and the traffic antenna included. S
