Garmin Nuvi 770 GPS (TTS, Bluetooth, NA/European Maps) $389.95 @ GPSCity.ca

Here's a fine deal on a high end Garmin GPS from GPSCity.ca: the Garmin Nuvi 770 GPS Navigator for $389.95.

Previously, we've seen this unit for $439.99 from Costco, but $389.95 is far and away the lowest price we've seen for this GPS unit so far. Shipping looks reasonable as well -- $12.76 for ground shipping.

For the unfamiliar, the Nuvi 770 is among Garmin's top of the line products (only recently replaced as the top of the line product by the 800 series) and comes with a lot features:

• super-bright 4.3" LCD touchscreen display
• text-to-speech
• Bluetooth
• FM transmitter
• traffic
• track log recording
• multi-destination routing
• one-touch "Where Am I?" feature
• MP3 and audiobook playback & more

In October 2007, GPSmagazine.com gave the Nuvi 760 (functionally the same as the 770 minus European maps) a score of 4.7/5 and called it "an outstanding navigator" and "the best GPS on the market today". Bear in mind the Nuvi 760 cost around $800 at the time, while the 770 was closer to $1000.
