The full-featured Triton units offer full-color, touch-screen controls and the the way cool ability to record and attach audio to waypoint files. Other features unique to Triton include a built-in 2MB pixel camera, digital compass, barometer and built-in LED flashlight. All of these features are smartly integrated and designed to create a slick handheld GPS. Oh yeah, and its IPX-7 rated and water submersible. Magellan Triton is the first device to offer full, onscreen compatibility, usage and display of National Geographic’s maps. National Geographic offers its 28 titles of TOPO! outdoor recreation mapping software titles (covering all 50 states), which include five layers of maps - from National Geographic Atlas maps to the most detailed U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic maps. In addition, Triton is the first handheld GPS that allows adventurers to download maps and waypoints from TOPO! and from National Geographic’s new Weekend Explorer 3D, which includes 21 titles for major urban centers and surrounding recreational areas.
