Features of the Magellan Triton
2.7” color touch screen

display that makes selecting functions as easy as touching the screen.
Ease-of-use
– Simple menus and an intuitive interface makes using the Magellan Triton easy for
first time GPS receiver users while still keeping all the functions experienced users expect to see.
Routes and tracks

the backtrack function to follow your footsteps back to your point of origin.
3-meter accuracy
– The SiRFstarIII™ GPS chipset and an integrated multidirectional antenna
offer superior GPS accuracy. The Magellan Triton is also WAAS and EGNOS-capable, taking
advantage of the Wide Area Augmentation System for improved accuracy.
