The new Garmin Montana 700i is a Touchscreen Navigator with inReach Technology which offers worldwide SOS and messaging as well as weather reports. The device also incorprates an optional 8 MP camera. Position data is via both GPS and Galileo satellite networks.

To facilitate two-way satellite messaging via inReach, the Montana utilizes a full QWERTY keyboard. Maps and imagery are easy to discern thanks to the 5″ color screen which is 50% larger than the previous model.

Like other Garmin devices, the Montana has full ABC sensors, including an altimeter for elevation data, barometer to monitor weather and 3-axis electronic compass.

An internal, rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack provides more than 18 hours of battery life in GPS mode, but to keep you going for a week or more between recharges, use Expedition mode, an ultralow-power GPS reference.

As always, SSD readers are highly encouraged to purchase Garmin devices from Strohman Enterprise.
