Garmin New Devices

[Phillip Coetser]

Hi all...…..Looks like the dedicated GPS is not dead yet....and that could mean we should see continued support with map updates, Smartphone Link, traffic, etc. for older units...read more here (https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/garm ... avigators/), and I quote,

You're probably surprised that Garmin still makes portable navigation devices (or PNDs),
Garmin has just unveiled a trio of new Garmin Drive standalone GPS navigators for automotive at CES 2019. Meet the Garmin Drive 52, SmartDrive 55 and SmartDrive 65.

More and more drivers rely on the powerful and flexible phone in their pocket for navigating modern roads. However, the PND is still a capable and preferable option for professional drivers, road trippers and motorist explore outside of strong LTE coverage. And Garmin is one of most well-known and best established players in the PND game.
The new Garmin DriveSmart 55 and 65 devices feature, respectively, 5.5-inch and 6.95-inch edge-to-edge displays. Powered by Garmin's solid mapping and navigation software with 3D building and terrain data, they also feature a simplified interface that should make them easier to use than the previous generation Garmin Drive devices.
