The Garmin StreetPilot has detailed maps throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. There are close to 6 million updated points of interest. It allows turn by turn navigation and it gives you postal code support for Canada.

The Garmin StreetPilot c320 has text and voice-guided directions. There is an SD slot and it comes with a 128MB SD card.

Pros

My husband and I are still together in spite of Gertrude the Garmin Street Pilot c320.

Garmin Street Pilot c320 is easy to read at night

The suction is good. We have not had it fall off the window.

The voice is easy to understand and adjust. We've listed to the English voice and the British voice and found them very clear.

We can touch a button and tell you what turn to make in .2 of a minute. For example on the right side of the screen it shows a turn in 10 miles.

Garmin Street Pilot c320 is easy to take on and off so we haven't had our car broken into.

There is a 16-bit color display with a 3.5 inch diagonal screen.

Cons

Garmin Street Pilot c320 screen is hard to see in daylight.

It doesn't take every address. On our last two occasions she has gotten us back to our destination but got us lost getting there. I've almost thrown this GPS out the window. If I had to hear Gertrude say one more time "recalculating" out it was going. My husband found the volume control and saved her life.

Unlike my GPS it can be played with while driving - very dangerous.

I had to activate my Blackberry's VZ navigation because we had to download software when we left New England and we couldn't find the software. Eventually we did and I've kept my navigation on for $9.99 because I don't trust Garmin Street Pilot c320.

This is a layperson's review. My husband defended Garmin Street Pilot c320 for days and days and days. Finally he agreed that we got wrong directions too many times for this to be a good GPS. Sure it is inexpensive so if you don't mind getting lost once in awhile it will get you to the right point sometimes as well.
