Garmin 705T series

 

In browsing the product area on the Garmin web sit I came across a listing for nüvi® 785T. In fact on the filter bar under series it had 705 listed. I click on the option and it listed 755T, 765T, 775T and 785T. The feature is lane guidance.

I went back about 3 min later and the 705 series disappeared from the list but if I tried out some other filter option one of the units would appearer

Here is a link to the nüvi® 785T

I just saw the announcement too. I guess my 2-day old 750 is going back. The lane assist looks like a good feature. Lifetime traffic, geotagged image support, hotfix and the newer interface like th 255 has...sounds good to me.

Saw this too:
