Garmin also introduced the GPSMAP 620, which shares the same interface and is designed for markets outside the United States.
"Blending the best aspects of our popular portable marine units with the intuitive user interface of our automotive flagship line of nuvi navigators, the GPSMAP 600 series is the perfect tool in the boat and on the road," said Dan Bartel, Garmin's VP of worldwide sales.
Garmin said the GPSMAP 600 series features a GPS receiver and boasts a waterproof (IPX7) 5.2" WVGA touchscreen display (800 x 480 pixels) that reacts as users tap or drag through intuitive menus and options. The GPSMAP 640 comes preloaded with street maps of North America and worldwide shaded relief mapping in addition to detailed U.S. coastal BlueChart g2 charts. When placed in its included marine mount, these portables will automatically start up in marine mode, presenting chart features such as shaded depth contours, port plans, wrecks, restricted areas and more.
With optional BlueChart g2 Vision technology, the company noted, the GPSMAP 640 provides a true 3-D "mariner's eye view," for a navigation perspective above the waterline, and a "fish eye view" for an underwater 3D bathymetric contour perspective.
Additionally, with the GXM 40 antenna (sold separately), the GPSMAP 640 can graphically display XM WX Satellite Weather data directly on the unit's display. More than 20 different types of weather attributes - information such as NEXRAD, wind speeds, visibility, severe weather storm tracks and more - deliver location-specific data, in chart-overlay form, directly to the device. With the GXM 40, motorists and mariners also have the option of receiving nearly 200 channels of commercial-free music, news, sports talk and entertainment with XM Satellite Radio. To steer clear of traffic backups, XM NavTraffic is also available to motorists with the GXM 40 antenna, the company noted in a release.
