Do any of them have remotes like the StreetPilot series?

The Nuvi 855 has a remote of sorts, but it's not like the remote on the
Street Pilot, it has a button to push when you want to give it a voice
command and another button to turn the voice command prompt off. I may
be wrong on the model number but there is also a 855T that is the same
as the 855 except it also has bluetooth.

Thanks. I thought the voice commands might be interesting, but guess I'll
keep my StreetPilots.

I have a 2610 which I retired and a 2820, I also picked up an 855 for
the wife's car. The remote goes on the steering wheel using a small
strap. If there isn't a bunch of outside noise I would say the unit
understands voice commands 95% of the time. If you have a vehicle that
gets a lot of wind noise the voice recognition will drop some.

        Simple answer? they may not has the exact same size or shape or doing
exactly what the StreetPilot does, but some model has remote control doing
what the model designed or capable of doing.

        Example, some model you can TALK to the remote
