Manufacturer Description |
The Lowrance iWay 500C Color GPS is a 5" diagonal large color screen in car GPS. The color 4" x 5" touch screen does not fade out in sunlight, and gives a clear view in either a 2D or 3D map view.
The 20GB internal memory has 10GB spare for MP3 music downloads. The remaining 10GB of memory in the iWay 500C is used to hold the turn-by-turn auto routing database for continental USA and Canada and to save up to 1,000 of your favorite waypoint locations.
The Lowrance iWay 500C portable color GPS navigation system shows you the way to any destination across town, or across the U.S. and Canada. Pick your destination and the iWay 500C automatically displays the best route, and gives you turn-by-turn directions with voice and visual guidance.
Right along side the touch screen, the iWay 500C includes 5 keypad buttons. These allow quick access to Speak/Volume, Map/Music, Menu, Find and Power/Light.
iWAY 500C RAM Mounting System
The iWay 500C currently ships with the RAM Quick Release Connnector, RAM short arm suction cup mount and a RAM U-Bolt Rail Mount Base. All of the RAM parts are interchangeable with other RAM 1.0 inch ball parts so if you need, you can add to these included accessories to make a mount to suit your exact needs.
