Great little gadget if you are directionally challenged like me!

a previously easily lost person

Pros

easy to use, lists street names, recalculates if i take a wrong turn, has waylay points, has most establishements, tells and shows you which way to go

NOV

2007

This device was easy to set up and I LOVE the way it shows the upcoming streets on the road. Whenever I spot a place I need to stop along the way, it automatically recalculates what turns I need to make to get back on track. I've always had problems with "left" and "right", but this has arrows pointing me in the right direction! I've spent many hours driving around lost during the past couple of months, and I am certain that this will always help me to find my way and will probably pay for itself in fuel savings! The way it works is terrific...it tells and shows the turn to take, tells you how many miles you will travel on this road, then REMINDS you just before you near your next turn that it is approaching. I never want to be without it again.

The StreetPilot c340 provides in-car navigation that is simple for anyone to use directly out of the box. After selecting a destination from the user-friendly touch screen interface, Garmin's text-to-speech feature tells users the name of the street, when to turn, and in what direction. If you miss your turn, the c340 automatically calculates a new route to the destination. Notification of traffic delays is a c340 option that lets drivers see congested areas via a color-coded map. This feature lets users avoid traffic by simply pushing a button that will calculate a new route. This traffic awareness is made possible via the new Garmin GTM 10 FM TMC receiver that connects to selected Garmin street navigation products. The GTM 10 receives digital data from specific FM broadcast stations in select major metro areas throughout the United States and Europe.
