Cheap GPS w/ Bluetooth

Aug 10, 2011 2:27 AM

most GPS units that have BT it's only for "Hands-free calling", i want the one that does it in another direction, ie sends 'turn-by-turn directions' to BT device, like your car stereo or headset.

looking for something around $100-200. don't need a phone.

i suppose it will be a stretch since chat type questions are pretty popular nowadays.

I've got a Garmin 645wt currently a little over $100.00 on Amazon... I use the bluetooth for my hands free phone needs...
There is a newer model to replace it... You should be able to find it on ebay new or refurbed... The lowest price I've seen was months ago on Amazon $80.00 new...

@hobbitss: thanks, but i don't need "Hands-free Calls", i want the fair GPS lady to tell me directions in headphones while wearing BT headset. :)

something like this: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=135&pID=65210
but not for $400. i don't understand why the set for $100 can't have same functionality, all BT hardware is already there.... ugh.

@jamesbottomtooth: Sorry about that... I even got my model number wrong... I own a 265wt... I found a model matrix on an Amazon page that shows some of the newer model have a FM output so you can listen on the radio...
Not sure if that will work for you... Just scroll toward the bottom of the page and you will find it...

@hobbitss: yep. i figured you meant 265. i actually bought 265 a month ago or so but it was defective so i had to send it back. now the price on it jumped like +$30! wtf. in the end i will probably by another one just like it, but it is still not what i was hopping for.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
