Overview |

|
Hot on the heels of the revolutionary GPS II comes Garmin's
high-powered switchable handheld: the GPS II Plus. Featuring a
12 parallel channel receiver for quick satellite acquisition and
enhanced reception, the GPS II Plus is designed to track any
over-the-road journey and offroad adventure you have in mind.
This compact GPS features a state-of-the-art two-way screen
display for vertical or horizontal orientation - which makes it
easy to go from your vehicle to the hiking trail.
With an
external antenna for GPS reception, the GPS II Plus also boasts
dedicated zoom keys, waypoint symbols, diagonal panning, auto
start/stop trip timer, and average and maximum speed recordings.
Four AA batteries provide up to 24 hours of accurate tracking
and precise navigation.
Now the same pinpoint guidance
used by pilots the world over is conveniently available to
adventurers, regardless of their transportation means: 4x4, ATV,
bicycle, motorcycle, snowmobile, boat or on foot. |
