Garmin is excited to announce a new top-of-the-line addition to our family of industry-leading GPS portables. The GPSMAP 496 builds on the reputation of Aviation Consumer's Product of the Year - our GPSMAP 396. Additional features offered by the new 496 include: Garmin's SafeTaxi airport diagrams for over 650 airports; AOPA's Airport Directory data; Garmin's altitude sensitive Smart Airspace alerts; enhanced high-resolution terrain; private airports and heliports; faster 5 hertz GPS update rate; and preloaded automotive maps of North America or Europe. The near real-time Panel Page, with its accelerated GPS update rate, is worth the upgrade alone. XM WX Satellite Weather and audio entertainment packages are optionally available. Plus, the unit's built-in turn-by-turn automotive database makes it an all-purpose, go-anywhere navigator for the dashboard as well as the cockpit.
