Navigation at your Fingertips
The iQue M3 is a user-friendly automotive GPS navigator in a sleek,
lightweight Pocket PC design. The attractively priced iQue M3 features
larger, more-intuitive icons that make it easier for consumers to select
navigation applications using their index finger, rather than a stylus.
No other unit on today’s market combines straightforward in-car
navigation with Pocket PC applications like the iQue M3. This powerful
time-saving tool is ideal for anyone who wants to simplify their life
with one integrated device for their automobile, home, or office.
The iQue M3 features Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 2003 Professional
Edition software package, Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, which
supports portrait/landscape screen orientation for easy viewing of
multimedia content.
Incorporating Garmin’s proven, easy-to-use c-series automotive
navigation software, the iQue M3 provides premium in-car navigation
capability with automatic route calculation to any destination. The
intuitive, point-screen interface requires little input from the user.
Users can easily see where they are on an electronic map, and look up an
address or point of interest and route to it. An integrated speaker
gives voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions to your destination.
Users are also able to choose between a three-dimensional navigation
view or the more traditional 2D overhead view. The 3D-navigation
perspective lets drivers see an uncluttered view of what’s down the
road.
A built-in basemap of North and South America shows major highways,
thoroughfares, railways, lakes, rivers and borders. Garmin includes its
MapSource City Select DVD as a standard accessory, so users can download
detailed street-level map data, look up nearly six million points of
interest (POIs), and navigate to addresses throughout the U.S. and
Canada. World travelers can also add a European or Pacific Rim basemap
from the installation CD and purchase detailed maps separately.
As an added benefit, you can now import
customized points of interest with the help of Garmin's free POI Loader
software. The possibilities are endless — upload safety cameras
or school zones, and you will receive a warning if you are traveling too
fast. In addition, an optional proximity-alert feature notifies you of
upcoming custom POIs.
The GPS antenna on the iQue M3 folds flush with the back of the unit.
To navigate, simply raise the antenna to enable Garmin’s patented
antenna-release switch that simultaneously powers up the device,
initiates the satellite-acquisition sequence, and defaults to the QueMap™
interface. Once the antenna switch is triggered, the device prepares to
navigate. The antenna can also be adjusted for optimal GPS signal
reception.
