Ask Garmin: Getting to know your gift

Oregon400tfrontNuvi765tMany of you followed the advice of our holiday commercials and chose to "Give-a Give-a Give-a-Garmin" to your loved ones this holiday season. And now a whole new generation of Garmin owners want to get acquainted with their nüvi or Astro or Forerunner or Edge or Oregon or GPSMap or Mobile software or ... well, we could go on for a while.

The easiest way to learn about your new Garmin is to turn it on, go outside so that it can find the satellites and then play around with it. But if you're stuck indoors (or at work) and you want to see your new GPS device in action, we have solutions on our Garmin Buzz page. There you can find the handiwork of our interactive team, who has created minisites and online demos to introduce you to the technology. The crown jewel of the Buzz page is the Land of Oregon minisite. This highly interactive - and addictive - minisite introduces you to the Oregon touchscreen handheld in ways no owner's manual or blog can. There are also specific product demos as well as informative minisites for our Marine Network, the G600 glass cockpit and Garmin Mobile solutions.

You'll find several quick tutorials about various features of the Forerunner 405 fitness watch. You'll hear Team Garmin's pro cyclists talk about the Edge 705. And you'll see various nüvis showing what they have to offer in animated videos. And it's not just the latest and greatest getting all the attention. There's even a ton of information on Garmin's Buzz site for products that have been making names for themselves for some time now. And finally, make sure you stop by the Garmin Garage to customize your vehicle icon. New choices are constantly being added, and they're available as free downloads. Enjoy, and welcome to the family!
