: Garmin Streetpilot c340 thoughts? brettdarnell 10-20-2006, 02:45 PM I have been looking around at portable GPS units. After much research and consideration, I think that I would like to get a Garmin Streetpilot c340. Does anyone have any experience with or thoughts about this product that would help my decision making process? This seems like a great all-around GPS unit, but any other input anyone might have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! SciJohn 10-20-2006, 02:51 PM I have the street pilot 550 and love it. The screen and most of the functionality is probably the same. I like the interface and features. I use the bluetooth interface with my phones as much as I use the gps for directions. Cono 10-20-2006, 06:21 PM Had these units, not good at all. Go with the TomTom products....you'll thank me! Junebug 10-20-2006, 06:36 PM I've written a review of the c340. Use the Search drop-down in the toolbar, type in c340, and you'll see a handful of threads. I'm too lazy to re-type. :) Bender 10-21-2006, 11:41 PM I am very happy with all my Garmin products, and their customer service cannot be beat. That Tomtom stuff looks kinda toylike to me. djfiggy 10-22-2006, 12:58 AM I agree...get the Garmin. I've had my c340 for about 8 months now. I have been all over the state of Oregon....and even drove to Vegas with it. Great unit, great software/support. Can't find 1 thing BAD to say about it. Wilyumm 10-22-2006, 08:09 AM When I was looking for a GPS I looked at both theGarmin and the Toy Toy... I mean Tom Tom. For me, the Garmin was far and away superior to the Tom Tom. I now have an SP330 in my wife's car and a NUVI 350 in my E. :) dohcvtec 10-22-2006, 09:01 AM i like garmin products..i personaly have a gamin nuvi 350 in my E very handy..compact and useful.. that is also a mp3 player..but keep an eye on those new gamin products..they have blue tooth built in which is compitable to your cell phone lifeizgood 10-22-2006, 02:54 PM I have a Garmin C330 and love it! Paid $300 for it... great price for a great product. DCbox 10-22-2006, 03:38 PM I have the older Garmin i5, it's been great, and when it broke Garmin repaired it quickly. Eventually I will trade it in for a c330/340. goosler 11-09-2006, 02:26 PM My Garmin I5 just showed up with the fedex guy..... gonna try it out on my commute home.....let you know how it turns out... I got it from buydig.com for $315 shipped............

Bluetooth connects good & works well. The only downside to that option is using the units speaker during phone calls. Other than that Garmin is the winner in my book. | ||
