What's New in Breeze 2.0?
With Breeze 2.0, experience new ways to use your GPS to its full
capabilities. The newest Trekker Breeze version is packed with a
powerful set of features to help you explore your travel environment
even further.

Exploring new places has never been so easy

Get guidance to a destination address
The new Breeze version offers an easy and intuitive way to get to a new
destination address. When entering an address, the Breeze's keys are
used like a cell phone keypad. The entered address will be kept in the
destination list as one of your landmarks. You can then be guided to
that address with pedestrian or motorized turn instructions as easily as
you do with landmarks. To facilitate planning your trip, you can create
the address landmark while you are at home, even without GPS coverage.

Improved backtrack
The Breeze will now remember your previous pedestrian track even after
you turn Off the device. Once you turn your Breeze On again, you can use
the Backtrack Previous Session option to be guided back to your point of
origin, following the steps you used to get to your current position. 

Reverse a pre-recorded route
It is now possible to reverse a recorded route. When activating a route,
if you press and hold the Confirm button, Breeze will activate the route
in reverse direction.

Walk your way to better health!
The Breeze pedometer will help you keep track of your walking
objectives. It provides your walking distance, walking time and average
speed during the current session. This information is available through
the Information button and can be reset at your convenience.

Expand your world of information
Enrich your Breeze with custom GPS information imported from the PC:
Breeze supports GPX and CSV, the two most widely used formats to
exchange GPS information.

Version 2.0 contains also advanced features and other enhancements that
you can discover in the What's New document.
