GARMIN Rino 110 GPS Radio

The Rino 110 is a GPS-enabled handheld that integrates radio functionality to provide two-way communications. It`s waterproof, can send communications up to two miles using FRS channels, 5 miles using GMRS channels, and can `beam` your exact location to another Rino user using `Position Reporting`. And because the Rino 110 has standard FRS/GMRS capabilities, you can talk to friends or family who own conventional FRS/GMRS radios.

The Rino 110 has a built-in city point data base, with 1 MB of internal memory for additional points-of-interest data that can be downloaded from a MapSource Points of Interest CD-ROM.
