It’s been a few days since a batch of nu Garmins were announced, and I finally have some details for you. Let’s start off with a quick look at some nu Garmin marketing jargon.
An abbreviated look at LMTs
Garmin has apparently dropped the LMU (lifetime maps updates) designation, in favor of LTs (lifetime traffic), LMs (lifetime maps) and LMTs (lifetime maps and traffic). Hopefully, this will avoid any confusion with TomTom’s TM units, which stands for lifetime traffic and maps (though I wonder how many people think it means trademark).
Garmin nuLink! 1695 announced

Garmin has announced the nüLink! 1695, apparently abandoning the nuvi moniker for connected devices. The 5-inch touchscreen unit will include one year of connected nuLink services out of the box, and will come equipped with the trafficTrends (historical road speed database) and myTrends features recently introduced on the nuvi 3700 series. And to top it off, Garmin is getting an app store of sorts, dubbed the nuLink! Store, for purchasing premium services, such as “real-time advanced weather with Nexrad radar and severe weather alerts, and premium safety camera alerts.” The nuLink 1695 is expected to be available in September 2010 for a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $449.99. The subscription price for nuLink services after the first year is $5.00/month.
