Garmin 200W now official
Jun 16, 2007 garmin, gps navigation
Garmin made their new wide screen nuvi 200W model official last week – couple weeks after we talked about them here at Navigadget (wider Nuvi).
With a suggested retail price of $535, the new Nuvi 200W, still claims to be an affordable, budget, entry level GPS navigation system. The most obvious feature of the 200W is its 4.3″ touch screen display with white backlight that is easy to read from any direction.
nüvi 200W comes preloaded with City Navigator NT street maps, including plenty of POI’s. Additionally, nüvi 200W accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs.
Garmin does not mention details of the Li-Ion rechargeable battery, but they say it should last up to 5 hours, which is really impressive. Some other software features are JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, and calculator.
If you can’t keep track of all these nuvi models check out our nuvi guide.

I just bought a 200w and much to my surprise it does not contain a manual in english. The only manual was in french and the salespeople at Circuit City told me no such manual was available. I would need to go on-line to download and copy information. Is that really the case?

I just got a 200w. There is no mention of how long it takes to fully charge the battery from the time it goes into low battery mode. Does anyone know?

I just bought the 200w, my first GPS, last month. I love how easy it is to use. However, on a trip from Myrtle Beach to Roanoke, a distance of approximately 320 miles, I drove on three sections of four lane highways that were not on the Nuni map. Does anyone know when to expect updated maps? Is this normal? Should I trade this in for another? Thanks for any guidence.
