The Magellan Triton 1500 is unlike any handheld GPS
system you've even seen, heard, or felt. It's the first
consumer-grade outdoor GPS device with a touch-screen
interface, fully integrated microphone and speaker, MP3
player, and LED flashlight, all crammed into a compact
and affordable package. Amazingly easy to use, the Triton 1500 reinvents handheld GPS. A large, 2.7" color touch screen makes it easy to navigate the simple, intuitive menus and control navigation features with a touch. Use Magellan's exclusive VantagePoint software to easily manage and upload detailed maps, user generated content, updates and upgrades on your PC. View saved routes and tracks, then customize them for future trips or create new ones. SD-card compatibility makes it easy to expand your navigation capabilities by adding detailed maps and applications. Upload optional detailed topographic maps, marine cartography, and other applications to find your way on all your outdoor adventures. Plus, Triton is the first handheld GPS to offer compatibility with National Geographic maps. These highly detailed nation-wide topographic maps based on USGS 1:24,000 series quads, offer seamless scalability, multi-layer overlays and much more. Record audio notes for waypoints and play them back with the built-in microphone and speaker. A powerful, low battery consumption LED flashlight helps you find your way in the dark: an invaluable tool for camping and other outdoor recreation. Triton is designed for precision navigation, offering the fastest GPS positioning acquisition in the industry with the SiRFstar III chipset. An integrated high-sensitivity antenna provides reliable signal reception even in heavy cloud cover, canyons or deep woods. Built-in signal augmentation reception (WAAS/EGNOS) provides 3-meter accuracy. Rugged and waterproof, your Triton is built to withstand intense use, accidental impact and immersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes (IPX-7). It's ready to guide you across any terrain in the great outdoors. Touch-screen technology makes it easy to use all the advanced features. View the elevation profile for the trail ahead (or any route) or even the track you just traveled. See the precise time of sunrise/sunset any day of the year. Get a calculation of the best hunting and fishing time. And much more. Triton is built on the experience of GPS users and nearly 20 years of precision positioning technology from Magellan.
