The centerpiece of both units is a bright, 3.5-inch diagonal, 16-bit color display that makes navigation a snap. The StreetPilot c330 features dual integrated speakers for high-quality voice prompts, and an internal lithium-ion battery for out-of-car route planning.

Buyer's feedback: - * Very handy in a new town ...
I am very happy with the Garmin overall. You can set your preferences to avoid highways or u-turns and change the voice (language or accent).

My only real complaint with this GPS is that it does not take you the most direct to get someplace, it zig zags so I end up taking three rights and the three lefts rather than going straight and taking one turn at the end.

Buyer's feedback: - My husband LOVES it!!
I got this for my husband for Christmas. He asked for a Magellan, but after researching, I decided to go with the Garmin. I am so happy and he absolutely loves it!! I chose to go with the bigger Streetpilot instead of the thinner model (like my husband wanted)due to several reasons and, again, it was a good decision. It's so easy to use and with the factory warranty plus the Amazon warranty, it was a safe and smart purchase! We are planning to get one for our daughter, too!

Buyer's feedback: - * Great Unit ...
I bought this for my son who travels with his work. I already own this unit myself.
I knew he would enjoy it's simple operation and accurate information.

It's packaging was different, but the unit was good as new. This GPS is so simple to use that you will throw the box away after one day. Love it.

Buyer's feedback: - I'm Lost without it!!
I loved it so much I got one for my Mom. I have noticed that it does have problems some times but I find it to be accurate over 95% of the time. I drive a lot through Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, D.C., & North Carolina just to name a few. I do print a paper map just incase I lose satellite reception (this has only happened once during a terrible hailstorm) & to check if I think there might be a better way. I find most people who have a problem find it quickly resolved once they set their preferences correctly... You can choose to avoid Toll Roads or Main Highways, You can opt for Construction Detours or set it for the Fastest or Quickest Route... These settings make a huge difference on the route the Garmin will take you. I stated out with a Cobra because the screen was larger but returned it quickly for my Garmin and I have been driving with it for nearly 2 years... I am LOST without IT!!!

Buyer's feedback: - * Love this Gizmo ...
I purchased this Garmin for a road trip I was taking over the Christmas Holiday. It took me everywhere I needed to go, and most of the places were residential. The thing I love the most is that it's like having a co-pilot - which I normally don't have. I no longer have to try to read directions that are too small to see while I am driving. It is VERY easy to operate, and the price was right.
