A Small Wonder in Car Navigation The StreetPilot i3 is the color version in the i-series StreetPilotsa new line of small, inexpensive automotive GPS navigators that make driving fun. No larger than a baseball and priced affordably, the StreetPilot i-series is destined to be a hit for commuters, college students, and corporate travelers who are looking to experience the ease and enjoyment of GPS satellite navigation for the first time. Dont let the size fool you: The StreetPilot i-series has many of the same powerful capabilities as our other premium automotive GPS navigators. The i-series features a unique and convenient click-to-enter scroll wheel and a back button which makes it easy to select a destination from the units menu-driven interface. The i2 and i3 provide voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions through a built-in speaker, and the unit easily moves from vehicle to vehicle with an integrated suction cup mount. The i-series will also automatically put drivers back on course if they miss a turn. The StreetPilot i2 and i3 come with a MapSource City Select North America NT v7 DVD, which contains mapping detail of the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Ricofeaturing nearly six million points of interest, including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. Users load the City Select data onto an included 128MB Transflash data card via a fast USB connection. Garmin has also added the ability for customers to augment the pre-loaded maps with Custom POIs from third parties, such as school zones and safety cameras. In addition, a proximity-alert feature is included to optionally notify the driver of upcoming Custom POIs. The i3 features a 32k-color, sunlight readable TFT display with backlight, while the i2 features a high-contrast backlit FSTN monochrome display. Motorists can choose from either a three-dimensional mapping perspective, or overhead birds eye view. For added convenience, drivers can power the unit with either two AA batteries (six hours, typical use) or the included 12-volt adapter cable.
