Garmin Nuvi 1450

Garmin International is pleased to announce the nuvi 1450 GPS navigator. This model features a large 5-inch screen and an ultra-thin design, as well as popular features like lane assist with junction view and spoken street names. The 1450 includes an enhanced user interface with improved graphics and a new slide control for menu operation. There are even two features to help the environment: ecoRoute™ suggests fuel-efficient routes to help save money and fuel while driving; and Garmin’s new enhanced pedestrian mode allows for better navigation on bus, metro and suburban rail systems. Note: nüvi 1450 includes all of the features that come standard with the popular nüvi 1490T, except Bluetooth® hands-free calling and FM traffic receiver (optional accessory).
