With a simple touch screen interface, automatic route calculation to any destination, and turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions, the StreetPilot c320 GPS navigator is a powerful companion for your adventures on the road. Plus, Garmin has designed the "c-series" of car navigation units to be as simple and easy-to-use as possible-- no more intimidating features, just straightforward, basic navigation at your fingertips.

Although the c320 boasts distinctive and sleek styling, simplicity is the name of the game. The only buttons are a rotary volume knob and an on/off switch. The device is secured by a suction-mount cradle that fastens to the windshield for easy portability between vehicles. You can customize the unit's appearance with an array of colored faceplates that are sold separately.
For navigators who only require detailed maps for a limited area, the StreetPilot c320 features an SD card slot, a 128 MB SD card, and MapSource City Select street data on CD-ROM. To load the area you need, simply select the specific area of interest on your computer and the data is transferred from a PC to the unit via a fast USB connection. The c320's bright, 3.5-inch diagonal, 16-bit color display makes navigation a snap. The unit also features dual integrated speakers for high-quality voice prompts, and an internal lithium-ion battery for out-of-car route planning.
What's in the Box
StreetPilot c320 receiver, vehicle suction cup mount w/integrated power cable, PC/USB interface cable, 128 MB SD memory card, and setup guide. Also, Americas Recreational Basemap and MapSource City Select North America CD with full unlock.

Does not recommend Interstate bypasses (except, strangely, for I-285 around Atlanta) but rather directs you through center city. If you take the bypass it tries to get you back to the Interstate. Keep ignoring it and it finally will run out of options and direct you back to the Interstate where you want to be. I keep ignoring it so much in these cases that I expect it to insult me for being stupid--in fact it would be kind of funny if it did.
Also, I have seen some new sights following its directions.
The 320c, for the price, can't be beat.
This was a gift I gave my husband. He loves it and was thrilled with the gift. Flexible and easy-to-use with a clear, easy-to-understand voice (important because my husband is partially deaf). The graphics are clear, but not extremely useful. My only problem with the system is that the list of restaurants does not seem to be up-to-date. This led us on a couple of wild goose chases for coffee. However, we could add our own, which was great. I would buy this again...and may get one for myself.
I purchased the Streetpilot C320 in February 2007 and has several successful trips. In August 2007 I took a crosscountry trip from Mississippi to South Carolina. The unit could not obtain a satellite lock during the entire trip. The Garmin help line helped me trouble shoot the problem and determined I needed to upgrade the software. The problem still persists. I called the helpline a second time and they showed me how to reset the entire system. The system reset erases all my programmed locations. The reset allowed the gps to get a satellite lock. However, everytime I turn off the system, it must be reset to get a lock, each time erasing my programmed locations. This is a cheap device that doesn't perform as advertised. I hope Garmin will honor the 12 month warranty and replace my gps with a device that works.
This contraption saved my marriage. We went on a road trip to Massachusetts for our honeymoon. Boston is not the easiest city to get around in. Our c320 kept us out of poor navigation fights.
Thanks Garmin!!!
