The StreetPilot 2730 offers real-time XM NavTraffic, XM WX
Weather, and XM Radio capabilities. It comes ready to go, right
out of the boxthere's no need to download maps from your PC.
The XM Traffic, Weather, and Audio capabilities give the
StreetPilot 2730 great utility, even when drivers know exactly
where they are. XM NavTraffic is the first nationwide
satellite-based data traffic information service to enable an
overlay of current traffic conditions. The StreetPilot 2730 uses
this data* to automatically calculate and suggest faster
alternative routes long before traffic starts backing up.
Accidents, road construction, or other incidents affecting traffic
are graphically represented as icons on the navigation map.
Precise information relating to a traffic incident is also
available, including the precise location of the incident, the
lanes affected, and the predicted duration. Roadways are
color-coded to indicate directional traffic flow speed.
Additionally, the StreetPilot 2730 can also receive XM weather
data*. Current weather conditions for over 2,000 locations, and
weather forecasts for 162 cities, are displayed on-screen. United
States county storm and flood warnings are also highlighted,
allowing motorists to make prudent driving decisions.
The StreetPilot 2730 also offers more than 150 channels of XM
satellite radio**, featuring 100-percent commercial-free music, as
well as more than 30 channels of news, sports, talk, and
entertainment. Users can send XM and navigation audio to their car
stereo through the StreetPilots integrated FM wireless transmitter
or 3.5 mm stereo headphone/line-out plug.
The StreetPilot 2730 also comes equipped with an MP3 player that
lets users take their personal music collection on the road and
browse music by artist, album, song, or genre. Loading music is
drag-and-drop easythere's no need for special software. The
StreetPilot 2730 also works as an audio book player, with content
available for purchase from Audible.comfeaturing more than 70,000
hours of audio programs from more than 200 content partners.
In addition to the turn-by-turn voice prompted navigation
available in earlier StreetPilot models, the 2730 actually
announces the name of upcoming streets and points of
interestletting drivers keep their eyes on the road while
navigating through busy traffic. Highly-detailed maps featuring
nearly six million points of interest (POIs) throughout the U. S.,
Canada, and Puerto Rico (destinations like hotels, restaurants,
gas stations, and attractions) come pre-loaded on the units
solid-state memory. If a driver strays off-course, the StreetPilot
2730 automatically recalculates a new route.
With POI Loader, users can also augment the pre-loaded maps with
custom POIssuch as school zones and safety cameras. In addition, a
proximity alert option can warn the driver of upcoming custom POIs.
(This safety feature is designed to help reinforce the importance
of traveling at appropriate and legal speeds.)
Garmins GXM 30 antenna, which is included with the StreetPilot
2730, receives and processes all XM traffic, weather and audio
data. For maximum portability, the magnetic, waterproof, puck-size
GXM 30 can be placed on the dashboard or the roof of the vehicle.
The StreetPilot 2730 boasts a WQVGA automotive-grade color TFT
display with touchscreen that automatically adjusts the units
backlight for optimum viewability in any amount of light. Drivers
