Google Chrome OS unveiled, released to open source community

The Garmin Nuvi 200 was marketed (as the name alludes to) new users of GPS units. As an Garmin’s entry-level GPS, it has relatively simple features, and a price tag that started reasonably low and has dropped significantly since its release in 2007. The unit measures 3.8"W x 2.8"H x .8"D and affixes to the windshield with a suction cup. It can be oriented using the ball and socket joint.

I’ve been using the Nuvi for about a year, and the 3.5” touch screen display is exceptionally bright and is readable even in bright sunlight. Stated battery life is up to 5 hours, and the unit comes preloaded with Garmin’s regional maps. One noticeably absent feature is spoken street names. Instead, you hear only “left” or “right.”
