Pre-Loaded
Maps in a Pocket PC
The
iQue M4 is Garmin's first iQue to come pre-loaded with City Navigator
North America NT covering the United States, Canada, and Puerto
Rico. There's no need for downloads from your PC.
The
iQue M4 uses Garmin's familiar StreetPilot interface that greets
users with two recognizable options: "Where to?" and "View map."
It also includes the same features found in Garmin's other high-end
street navigators including intuitive navigation with automatic
route calculation; voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions; 2D
or 3D map view; and automatic rerouting if a motorist strays off
course.
With
the iQue M4's larger navigational icons, users can select icons
with their finger rather than a stylus. After using the touchscreen
to enter information about the destination-such as the name or
street address-the driver will be given detailed, turn-by-turn,
voice-prompted directions. Destinations may also be selected through
the points of interest (POIs) database, which includes nearly
six million POIs such as restaurants, fuel, banks, and hotels.
This street-smart navigator can remind you of an appointment,
show the location on the Map Page, and route you right to the
front door. With its POI Loader software, Garmin has also made
it possible for customers to augment pre-loaded maps with custom
POIs such as school zones and safety cameras.
The
built-in Windows Media® Player lets users browse music by artist,
album, song, and genre. MP3s can be loaded onto an SD card or
internal memory for music on the go.
The
iQue M4 boasts a new SiRF® high-sensitivity receiver for improved
GPS performance, 64 megabytes of RAM, and SD/SDIO expansion slot
for memory, wireless networking, and more. The iQue M4 also features
Microsoft's Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition operating system,
which includes Pocket Office applications and supports portrait/landscape
screen orientation for easy viewing of multimedia content.
