Garmin Mobile XT Special Offer
Palm GPS Navigator Kit + Garmin Mobile XT Software On Sale – Only $139 (Save $90 Instant Discount + $20 Mail In Rebate – Originally $249)
Currently Garmin Mobile XT is the only GPS navigation software solution that is compatible with the entire range of Palm Centro and Treo smartphones (including Palm OS and Windows Mobile 755p, 750, 700p, 700wx, 700w, 680 and 650). It is therefore not surprising that in recent months Garmin Mobile XT has climbed to become the #1 bestselling GPS navigation software combined with the Freedom Keychain GPS 2000 receiver (see my review).
The Palm Store now has a terrific offer that gives you the opportunity to get your hands on their combined Palm GPS Navigator Kit + Garmin Mobile XT Software (pictured above) for only $139. The kit includes:
- Garmin Mobile XT software
- 2GB memory card with maps of the U.S. and Canada
- GPS receiver powered by SiRFstarIII with Bluetooth wireless technology and rechargeable battery
- Vehicle device cradle with mounting bracket and suction cup pad
- Dual Vehicle power adapter for smartphone and GPS receiver
- User documentation
Garmin Mobile XT transforms your Treo or Centro smartphone into a full-featured street navigator. Routing software and detailed mapping are preloaded on a microSD card (with miniSD and standard SD card converter). Just plug it into your phone and you’re ready to navigate – on foot or in your car. With no subscription fee or additional equipment required, Mobile XT works anywhere, even outside your phone’s network coverage area for directions when you need them the most.
3D turn by turn navigation with spoken instructions
Detailed moving maps and spoken instructions ensure you never miss a turn and arrive at your destination on time and stress free.
Online traffic information
Real-time traffic reporting with detailed information about incidents, roads affected and estimated delay times.
Safety camera alerts
Data on all fixed, mobile, temporary and variable camera sites helps you stay safe on the road and keep your licence.
Weather forecasts
Up-to-date weather bulletins for your current location and destination ensure you pack appropriately for every trip.
Location Based Messaging
Garmin Mobile XT lets you connect to friends, family and colleagues via mobile SMS and MMS.
Address book integration
Close integration with your smartphone mobile address book enables Garmin Mobile XT to navigate to any location in your contacts.
Extensive POI database
Navigate to any one of millions of points of interest including restaurants, hotels, post offices, emergency services, entertainment and petrol stations.
Track logs
Record where you have been and when, before importing your trip into Google Earth to relive the journey.
Considering that the Garmin Mobile XT software typically retails for $99 the Palm GPS Navigator Kit + Garmin Mobile XT Software $139 offer basically gives you an extra GPS receiver + vehicle mount + dual car charger for only $40 (a $130+ value).
If you do not have a Centro I can still highly recommend the Palm GPS Navigator 2+ Kit (only $149.95) which offers equally great value as well (albeit TomTom appears to be discontinuing smartphone support). If you already have a GPS navigation software then consider getting the terrific ultrasmall Freedom Keychain GPS 2000 receiver.

What about those of us who bought the TOM-TOM outfit when you had that on sale? If Tom-Tom is discontinuing their smart phone service, can we just buy the Garmin software??
Tim - the TomTom GPS navigation software continues to be my preferred choice. Unfortunately because TomTom will not continue to develop future version for smartphones it looks like Garmin will be my next best choice (it is pretty much equal in capabilities to TomTom with this latest version).
Bottom line, if you already have TomTom then continue using it. If not then you should consider the new Garmin Mobile XT (particularly if you have a Centro).
I hope this helps.
Cheers, A.
Do you have to have an unlimited web data service for the gps system to work? If the phone is a centro will the maps be on the smaller storage chip?
My wife and I both have Centros. Can we both use the Garmin XT by just swapping the card between devices?
I accidently broke my dual car charger. Do you have one I could buy? If so how much? I still have everything else the only thing I need is the charger for both the receiver and my centro.
Thanks,
Tiffany
