This model does utilize voice prompts when directing the driver to their destination, but it also displays a 3-D map on its 4.3” WQVGA colour TFT with white backlight. The built-in memory is solid state while it may also accept SD data cards, allowing for the more maps to be added if need be. The Nuvi 750 also doubles as an entertainment tool, with MP3 Playback, JPEG picture viewing and FM transmitter. The battery life, though rechargeable, is 5 hours, and the unit weighs 6.2 ounces. Lastly, for security purposes, an anti-theft feature using Garmin Lock protects the Nuvi 750 along with the location of the auto in the event of it being stolen.

In Italy the direction to turn are off by 20 to 50 meters ( roughly 60 to 150 feet) in a city this creates a real problem

Have to PAY for annual map updates. Not a small price either ($50+).
