Marketing Information |
Receive door-to-door directions while staying on top of local weather,
traffic and more with nüvi 680, a sleek multi-tasking Personal Travel
Assistant. Similar to the 660, nüvi 680 features a colorful widescreen,
hands-free calling and FM transmitter, then takes it up a notch by adding
dynamic content from MSN Direct. Like all nüvis, the user-friendly 680 comes
with preloaded maps and travel kit.
Get Localized Information
With dynamic content from MSN Direct, nüvi 680 is one resourceful Personal
Travel Assistant. Using the included receiver and free trial service to MSN
Direct, you can check the weather, avoid traffic backups, compare local gas
prices and check movie times and locations when you travel with your unit.
The MSN Direct receiver is plug-and-play portable, making it easy to connect
to your unit when out and about.
Navigate with Ease
nüvi 680 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City
Navigator® NT street maps, including a hefty points of interest (POIs)
database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply touch the
sunlight-readable color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you
there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. It even
announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes
off the road. In addition, nüvi 680 accepts custom POIs, such as school
zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of
upcoming POIs. It also supports configurable vehicle icons — fun, customized
car-shaped icons in a variety of colors that show your position on the map.

nüvi 680 features a super-bright 4.3" diagonal widescreen display for
improved map viewing, POI lookup and MP3/audio book playback. This landscape
display has white backlight and a touch screen for easy use.
Make Hands-free Calls
Talk about worry-free driving. nüvi 680 integrates Bluetooth wireless
technology with a built-in microphone and speaker, so you can pair it with
your compatible Bluetooth phone. Then talk hands-free through the 680 while
staying focused on the road. Simply dial numbers with nüvi's touch screen
keypad to make a call. To answer calls, just tap nüvi's screen and speak
directly into its built-in microphone. You can also easily look up and dial
numbers from your personalized phone book or from your phone’s call history
log. With 1-touch dialing for points of interest (POIs), you can
conveniently call ahead for reservations or information.
Go Beyond Navigation
Navigation is just the beginning. nüvi 680 includes many “must have”
entertainment and travel tools including an MP3 player, audio book player (subscription
to Audible.com required), JPEG picture viewer, currency converters and more.
With nüvi 680's wireless FM transmitter, you can hear audio, including voice
prompts, MP3s and audio books, through your vehicle's stereo. Optional
software on plug-and-play SD cards for language translation, detailed travel
guide and savings programs allow you to customize your nüvi for your travel
needs.
nüvi 680: It's a whole nü way to travel.
