 Very Pleased July 3, 2006

After reviewing several mid priced GPS Nav systems, I chose the Garmin C340. Turned out to be a very good choice. The day after I recieved it (free and early). I had to make a delivery from the Detroit, Mi area to Champaign, Il. and on down to McCalla, Al. Got me right to my addresses without any problems, whatsoever. As you may be able to tell I make deliveries for a living. Wish I had made this purchase years ago.
I thought that Garmin forgot to send directions with their product, but turns out you don't need any. It is that simple to use. You can download a PDF version from their website if you'd like, though.
There are a few things that would make this nicer.
1) A larger mounting bracket. I drive a van and the bracket is to short to reach from the windshield. Fits nicely in my cupholder, though.
2) Should be a way to "fine tune" detours. The system tries to put you back on your route too soon. Maybe the optional ($260) FM traffic reciever would aid in this.
3) Easier personal routing. Sometimes you know faster routings, but the system doesn't.
All in all a very good piece of equipment for the price.
Review - Garmin C340 July 2, 2006

While this device has proved valueable - it did not contain up to date mapping of the area that I moved into. This shortcoming was not known to me prior to purchase, which would have influenced my purchase.

Garmin Sreetilot C340 is one of the examples how far the technology has gone. You can travel without stress or reading maps wherever you want with "Jill", voice that gives you directions. The only problem is that if you drive while an upper level of bridge is above you or you have any kind of obstacle above and you have a ramp in front, you lose the satelite connection and you don't know if you will take right or left. However, if you take a wrong way "Jill" will recalculate and give you new directions in a few seconds. A friend of mine calls her "Smart Girl". I feel very relaxed when I drive with Garmin Street Pilot.
 Excellent features for the money June 29, 2006

I did a lot of research before buying this GPS unit. I think the feature package this comes with is very good. You can pay more, get extra features that I don't really want (mp3 play, pictures etc), but for straightforward GPS use in the car I think it is almost perfect.
I use it in a full sized van and have no problem with the screen size, window mount, or losing satellites. A little more volume would be nice but it's okay.
I like the spoken street names, custom POI's and size of the C340.
Does what it does June 27, 2006

Good use of a touch screen and very easy to follow directions. For the price, this is the right product. I'm more of a second wave of technology kind of person so The Garmin C340 is perfect-- I don't need the latest and greatest, just a solid product.
