I love this site! But I digress...
Has anyone seen the updated map/navigation skin on a 7x0 model Nuvi? I'm talking about the one with the next turn indicator on the top-left, just left of the upcoming street name and the travel speed (mph) displayed on the bottom just to the left of the menu button. The other difference are the zoom buttons on the newer screen are small circles on the right side of the screen instead of the square icons on the top left and right.
I'm hoping that this is available for my 760, or will be soon...
Thanks for any insight!
Would love that for my 750.

7x5 series
This skin describes the 7x5 series. If the 7x0 series takes on this look, I'll pass as the upcoming street name and alert fields are removed or rendered unusable (see threads). I guess we will have to wait and see.

As this picture shows, it still displays the upcoming street to turn onto across the top of the screen...

Yep, you got that right (FPichon) love the upcoming street names on the top banner, good for night driving and looking for addresses with no street lights..

But what about map view

Some of us don't let the nuvi "route" us to every location. But the 760 series will display the next street as soon as you past the last one. Same with interstate exits. Very handy.

Ahhhh! So in map view (no route set), the new skin that I am wishing for doesn't display upcoming street names? That's good to know! That is a nice feature... so I guess the old adage strikes again, "careful what you wish for, you just might get it"
