GARMIN GPSMAP60C / GPSMAP60Cx

Hand held GPS receiver with large color display, integrated world and Europe/Africa map, auto-routing, USB and serial interface.

The GARMIN GPSMAP60C / GPSMAP60Cx is very easy to use thanks to its rocker key and user friendly graphical interface. It supports multiple languages, has an integrated world map (overview) plus a base map of Europe, Africa and the near East. In addition, the GPSMAP60C has 56 MB of built-in memory to store even more detailed information, such as local roads, restaurants and points of interest. The GPSMAP60Cx has a slot for a standard micro SD memory card in the battery compartment and comes with a 64 MB memory card. The extremely sensitive antenna provides navigation information outdoors, in a car, in a train or even in an airplane (see MapSource examples). Because of the very low power consumption, the batteries of the GPSMAP60C / GPSMAP60Cx last up to 30 hours. The built-in serial and USB interface support data exchange with a PC.

Note: The GPSMAP60CS / GPSMAP60CSx provides the following enhancements over this model: An integrated electronic compass and an integrated barometrical altimeter.
