 Garmin C550 GPS Navigator is top drawer April 16, 2007
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I was a faithful Tom Tom customer until I realized that Iwas replacing my Tom Tom every 4 to 6 months (under warranty) for a variety of reasons. I have had my Garmin for 8 months and will never go back to Tom Tom. All the same features, but without the reliability concerns
Two minor complaints: My unit doesnt seem to detect real traffic delays-it seems to rehash traffic delays from previous trips. Second, I have to manually turn the unit off when the unit turns itself on automatically when I turn on the engine
I wish the unit could display text messages as the Tom Tom did, but frankly I dont get many text messages. Otherwise, this is a top drawer unit!

This is a great product! The first one I got just went dead, I thought it was because I put a password in. I took it back to Best Buy. Got another. know I know you should update the software as soon as you get it so it won't lock up.
Excellent product. Highly recommend.
Install Firmware update immediately because of a bad bug. April 14, 2007

I love the product, but I had a major problem. 7 days after purchase, my streetpilot went dead.. and I mean DEAD. There is a bug on some of the systems that causes the power to turn off. You need to go to the garmin site and install the webupdater as soon as you get it. The update became available as of 4/03/07. If you are unsure how to do this, go to the Garmin site for the phone number and call them during work hours M-F and the very helpful staff will guide you through the process. I had to take mine back to the store and get a completely new c550 and have just installed the update a few minutes ago.
Otherwise, it's a great product and you'll enjoy it.
Also, be sure to create an account and register your product. They can help if whoever steals your gps calls in for service, they tell them to send it in for a replacement and then make sure YOU get your gps back... but you have to register it.

This Garmin is great out of the box, it does everything that they say it can. Went on a trip a day after recieving it, I had some minor problems but it was not the Garmins fault. I down loaded some POI off of the internet ( which I do not recomend paying for) and the address was wrong. You can look up anything you want from the Garmin and you dont have topay for it. The only thing I wished it would do is be able to update on new roads and business.

This is a great little GPS. It's very easy to figure out and works great. We have had no issues with it so far. The mount is nice and easy to put up and take down from window. It's easy to read with it's bright screen and large letters.
