The Garmin PeerPoint Messaging System is an SMS-based messaging system that can be used to transmit position information to supported devices. Messages sent via the Garmin PeerPoint Messaging System can be read on any SMS-capable device, but devices running compatible Garmin software can take advantage of extra functionality such as navigating to the associated position or displaying it on a map.
The following Garmin products currently support the PeerPoints Messaging System via SMS:
• Garmin Mobile XT for Symbian Smartphones (Nokia S60 2nd & 3rd Ed. and Sony Ericsson UIQ 3)
• Garmin Mobile XT for Palm OS Treos (all Treo models with Bluetooth)
• Garmin Mobile XT for Windows Mobile phones (WM 2003 and newer)
The Garmin PeerPoint Messaging System utilizes two message types: PeerPoint messages and Garmin Location messages which are described in this document.
