Garmin Nuvi Runs Linux 2,338 views
As mentioned by LinuxDevices.com, Garmin Nuvi 8xx and 5xxx series runs on Linux operating system and powered by Marvell PXA-3xx processor. The source code of the mentioned Linux has been posted by Garmin.
The Linux-based Nuvi 860 and 880 appear to be identical except for the latter’s addition of MSN Direct traffic reports. The 850 model, which lacks the Bluetooth-based hands-free operation available in the 860 and 880, also appears to incorporate Linux.
