The latest in engineering effort from one of the pioneering companies in the industry is the Garmin Nuvi 3790T GPS (Global Positioning System). The Nuvi 3790T shows that Garmin is continuing to update and expand from a technological point of view as well as in its design. The move to the "ultra-thin" look is a bit late as many other electronic hand-held devices have had that design for a while. The consumers wanted this design and Garmin responded, so it was a good move for them. Because the bells and whistles always seem to be improving, we ask ourselves, how much better can they get.

Ergonomic considerations are almost a must-have aspect for consumer electronics. The Nuvi 3709T can be easily carried in a shirt pocket and has the Pedestrian navigation mode which meets a new marketing demand. It is a bit early to know if Garmin's latest release is a hit or miss, though. Truthfully, who would have imagined that the concept of "sexy" would be ever engineered into the design of a Global Position System unit? Garmin has played it smart by paying attention to the likes and dislikes and the needs of the very large market of electronic consumers.

Although it doesn't include absolutely everything, with the use of the 3-D Building and Terrain capability, it will be able to show you major buildings and the surrounding terrain. The Nuvi 3790T not only offers the City Navigator NT, it also comes standard with the SUNA Traffic Channel which has a life subscription. A consequence of creating such a low-profile design is that evidently there wasn't any room left for a FM receiver. Without a receiver, you won't be able to get traffic updates from SUNA. This means you will need a charge unit which also houses the FM receiver. Traffic updates will be available on the road because the charger is a mobile device.

You do have the capability of making hands-free phone calls because it also has Bluetooth capability. Think about experimenting with the device first because it seems that the microphone is the last thing that gets installed and rarely is it the best quality of mic on the market. There is an entire slew of features that we cannot cover in detail simply because they are too many. Various software for making just about any kind of calculated conversion you would ever need.

If you are traveling around the country and need ideas, then just download some photos from Garmin Connect and then navigate to whichever picture strikes your fancy. Not everyone will find that feature appealing, but others may find it very helpful for their needs. Garmin Garage for downloading customized security features and Garmin Lock, an anti-theft device are a couple of more features that are offered. Because of its updated ergonomics, its features and the excellent it provides, its hard not to enjoy the Garmin Nuvi 3790T GPS.
