Product Description

In-car navigation has never been easier—or more affordable. Our StreetPilot "c-series" GPS navigators feature a simple touchscreen interface, with automatic route calculation to any destination and turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions along the way. Selecting a destination is straightforward and requires only a limited amount of input from the user. Plus, the StreetPilot c320 and StreetPilot c330 allow you to choose between a three-dimensional navigation view or the more traditional “bird’s eye” overhead view. For the ultimate out-of-the-box convenience, the StreetPilot c330 comes pre-loaded with highly detailed MapSource City Select street data. The database features an industry-leading five million-plus points of interest—including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. (The c320 comes with a 128 MB SD card and a MapSource City Select CD-ROM for data transfer from a PC via a USB connection.)  [...]

The Garmin StreetPilot was purchased as a Christmas gift for my husband. He loves it. It was packaged very nicely and arrived quickly. Thanks!

This is an extremely old model of GPS, and is sold here at an exorbitant price.

This GPS has worked fine for me for a long time. But updating the maps is a real pain. No of course, new GPS are smaller and cheaper. Before I buy a new GPS, I will check on how easy or difficult it is to update the maps.

For under $100(refurbished) I do not think I could have made a better purchase. The device is very user freindly and easy to install.It comes with awindow mount, that works very well. The dashboard mount, however was not very effective and I would not recommend using it. As for the software, beware that it is very outdated (2005), and do not believe what you read, you will have to purchase the upgrades at around $70. As for the device itself, the voice directions are loud and clear (with 9 volume settings), and the device is very user frienldy, featuring 2d and 3d maps, with the option of spelling your address, business, destination etc. It also has a feature to save your location and that helped with the outdated map software.The battery life is excellent thus far, and a car charger was included. Home chargers have to purchased seperately. Other features include setting multiple stops before your final destinatation, menu options that seek out the closest resturants (asian, mexican, american,etc), gas stations, shopping malls, convenience stores, speciality stores etc. Further, the search option allows you to find locations in your vicinity eg. "Austin Walmart".The only real complaint besides the outdated map and the ineffective dashboard mount is the predictive text in the "enter address" field - the device does not allow you to enter the full name, but with an updated map version, I am sure it will find the address you are looking for. Overall, a good buy compared to the Tom Tom at a slightly higher price which has no voice navigation.
