ABSTRACT:
A method for entering destinations into a navigation device is described, characters of a destination name being input and a list of destination names which begin with the character(s) input being generated as a function of the character(s) input, in which the list of destination names is generated as a function of the distance of the destinations assigned to the destination names, from a current location. The method eases and accelerates navigation destination input, in particular in those cases in which multiple destination names and destinations exist which fit one or more letters of the destination name input.
