It's an obvious sign of things to come. Hyundai Motor America will begin offering Garmin's nuvi 360 personal navigation device across its dealerships in the USA.

With easy-to-use GPS navigation capabilities, the nuvi 360 boasts of an MP3 player, audio book player and even language translator. This versatile device provides a touchscreen interface and delivers voice-prompted directions including street names across the US, Canada and Puerto Rico.

When purchased from a Hyundai dealer, nuvi 360 also comes with Garmin Lock, designed to disable the unit in case it is stolen. It can only be enabled after a 4-digit PIN is entered. Thanks to Bluetooth and integrated microphone and speaker, you can use the nuvi to make and receive calls, and even look up the phone's call log history.

The Garmin nuvi 360 is priced at US $857 when bought separately.
