Amazon.com Product Description
Newly simplified for automotive applications, Garmin's portable StreetPilot 2610 features both a touchscreen and an alphanumeric remote control so you'll always have easy access to automatic route calculations, helpful turn-by-turn directions, and guiding voice prompts. The 2610 offers a color display, built-in maps, and everything you need to download additional map detail. It offers more precise location finding because of its WAAS technology, a feature the original StreetPilot and the StreetPilot III lacked.
All the travel information you need, right on your dash. |
With its built-in photo sensor, the StreetPilot 2610's bright display automatically adjusts to outside light conditions. The unit is powered through either its external speaker (which comes with a handy 12/24-volt adapter cable) or its dedicated AC power adapter; both are supplied.
The unit's built-in routable basemap covers North and South America and contains a wealth of practical and nuanced data, including state and country boundaries, lakes, rivers, streams, airports, cities, towns, coastlines, state and interstate highways, local thoroughfares, secondary roads within metro areas, and interstate exit information for services such as gas, food, and lodging.
The 2610 accepts downloadable map detail from Garmin's PC-based MapSource City Navigator DVD-ROM (included), which provides street-level detail, addresses, and listings of nearby restaurants, hotels, ATMs, and other attractions. (This feature requires a CompactFlash card, and a 128 MB CF card is included; you must first downloaded MapSource data in order to find points of interest and addresses.)
The StreetPilot's integrated dash-mounting system fosters easy adjustment and quick release. The unit comes with a built-in patch antenna and an MCX-type connector for attachment to an optional external GPS antenna.
Garmin makes accessories to help you integrate your GPS unit with your life and your priorities. Keep it at the ready while protecting it from knocks and bumps with a carrying case that has space for your hookup cable and remote control. In the car, you'll appreciate the mounting options and clear reception afforded by the magnetic/suction-mount antenna that'll give you a better signal than if you just place your unit on the dash. Using your system in more than one vehicle? Garmin's dashmount is just the ticket, providing one temporary and one permanent adhesive mounting disc so you can move the unit between your cars.
What's in the Box
The StreetPilot 2610, the MapSource City Navigator DVD-ROM (full U.S. plus select Canadian coverage; unlock included), a 128 MB CompactFlash memory card, an integrated dash mount, a portable beanbag mount (friction mount), an external speaker with a 12/24-volt adapter cable, an AC power adapter, a PC/USB interface cable, an alphanumeric remote control, an owner's manual, a quick-reference guide, and a setup guide.

Garmin StreetPilot 2610 In-Car GPS Receiver with 128MB CompactFlashd .......2007-12-14
I love this product and use it all the time. I wonder now what I would do if I didn't have my navigator. Continue to get lost I guess.
Older model but works well.......2007-09-04
We received this product in great condition and within the timeframe expected. The product met expectation and functions properly. We appreciate the service Burlington provided us.
No satellite reception after 2 year of usage.......2007-05-07
Paid more than $600 for 2 year of usage, it was great for 1-1/2 year. After I realized the satellite signal was getting weaker, I saw more satellite drops even in the wide open area (rural area), like HWY-5. Now even for more than 10 minutes after power up, no signal at all, I updated the latest firmware, it doesn't get any signal at all. The GPS never been dropped, always put it back in the bag after usage.
My Garmin has been all over the US.......2007-04-20
I can't RAVE enough about my Garmin StreetPilot 2610! I have been over 10,000 miles with this GPS and it works great all of the time! It has never been lost or confused (like my Honda in-car navigation, it stinks), it tracks well with my vehicle and it ALWAYS is within 2 minutes of time it shows I will be there. If I start a 300 mile trip and it shows my arrival time at 5:30 PM, you can bet I will arrive at the door no later than 5:32 PM! It is truly amazing! It seems to even take into account short potty breaks for the kids!
If I am driving down the road and I get hungry or need gas, I click "find" on the remote and select the food or gas category and viola' it shows me how far I am from what establishment, then I click the one I want and it routes me there. That simple. :)
I know it's an older product, but it still works great! The remote is VERY handing, but the touch screen works well, too.
It isn't very often these days that I am so COMPLETELY satisfied with a product, but this has been one of those products. I am one of those people who like the latest electronics, but yet I am still satisfied with OLD Garmin StreetPilot.
If you buy one, you will need the newest (08/2006) mapping software for it, version 8, to get the most out of your new GPS. A 2GB compact flash will store the entire US and all POI(points-of-interest) for you. Garmin will also let you use the software on up to 2 Garmin GPS's, so you could buy 2 used ones and upgrade the software.
That's all I have for now. Did I mention that it works great?
Great car GPS!.......2007-03-08
I have been using this GPS for over a year now and am VERY pleased with it's performance, routing, mapping and entire feature set. The display is bright, easy to read and the sound directions work great. The touch screen with Remote Control make it very easy to program. I upgraded the mapping software and that went flawlessly. I also updated the Internal ROM software via the computer and that was very easy to do.

Customer Reviews:
Not all as advertised..........2007-03-09
Shipping was timely. Product is less than advertised. The luminous dial is hardly that! After "charging" in bright light for 5 min. or longer, the dial was barely readable in pitch dark (as in a bed room at night). Not as expected! Pathetic, might be accurate. Misleading... at least.
