Amazon.com Product Description
If you're looking for vehicle navigation that's powerful and simple to use, the Garmin StreetPilot c340 is just the ticket. Right out of the box, this unit helps you make the right turns wherever your travels take you. With an easy-to-use touchscreen interface, text-to-speech voice commands, a brilliant display that shows the way with 2D or 3D animations, and a massive points of interest database, the c340 has all the basics covered. Plus, you'll find some great additional features that make it a must-have companion. 
Look Mom, no buttons! Garmin has taken simplicity to a new level with the c340. | The c340 is designed with simplicity in mind, although Garmin hasn't forgotten to add a touch of class. With a weight of under ten ounces and a width of 4.4 inches, the c340 is ultracompact and easy to transport. To keep confusion on the road to a minimum, the only buttons are a rotary volume knob and an on/off switch. The bright 3.5-inch-diagonal display features a touchscreen, making it a snap to input routing information and make quick selections on the road. The c340 sports dual integrated speakers for high-quality voice prompts, a USB port for PC connectivity, and an internal lithium-ion battery that provides power when you're planning your routes outside the car (approximately 4-8 hours battery life). In addition to an included 12-volt power adapter for in-car power, there's also an SD memory card expansion slot for use with other Garmin MapSource mapping products. The unit is secured by a suction-mount cradle that fastens to the windshield, allowing for easy portability between vehicles. You can even customize the c340's appearance with optional colored faceplates that suit your style. While the c340 has an internal GPS antenna, it also has an MCX-type connector for hooking up an optional external GPS antenna. Finding your way with the c340 starts with inputting a location on the touch screen. Next, the unit's text-to-speech feature speaks to you just like a back seat driver, telling you the names of streets and when to turn and in what direction. And if you happen to miss a turn--don't worry, the c340 automatically calculates a new route to your destination. Audible and visual navigation instructions and warnings help you navigate more quickly while keeping your eyes on the road. You can also choose between a 3D mapping perspective or 2D overhead view. 
The c340 offers clear, easy-to-read 3D directions. | Another time- and frustration-saving feature of the c340 is the database of preloaded maps and points of interest. Gone are the days of uploading partial maps from your computer to your GPS device: the c340 has them all built in. The unit comes preloaded with Garmin's highly detailed City Select NT street data of the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Finding points of interest along your route is made easy with the c340's huge built-in database of nearly six million hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. Garmin has also made it easy for users to upload custom points of interest--now you can add school zones or safety cameras to your database. You can even turn on a proximity alert to notify you of upcoming custom points of interest. Garmin really kicks the power of the c340 up a notch with the addition of real-time traffic information. This optional service will display congested areas on a color-coded map, allowing you to avoid traffic by simply pushing a button that calculates a new route. All this wizardry is made possible by the new Garmin GTM 10 receiver that connects to the c340 and other select Garmin products. Note that while the GTM 10 receives digital data from specific FM broadcast stations in select major metro areas throughout the United States and Europe, note that these traffic services are available only in select cities where coverage exists. The service requires the GTM 10 FM TMC traffic receiver and, in some cases, a subscription to enable these traffic capabilities. What's in the Box
StreetPilot c340 receiver with built-in antenna, dual internal speaker system for voice guidance and alerts, vehicle suction cup mount with 12-24 volt adapter, dashboard disk, USB interface cable, preloaded City Select North America NT database, and quick-reference guide.

 the suction mount sucks! November 21, 2008
well, the suction mount simply broke on the second day (not just fell off the window - it broke right at the place where you put GPS - it seemed to be too heavy at first place!!), the GPS fell down, never used since then! Still need to contact the warranty company and demand a replacement of that junk! Cound't even register the product on-line, always got some kind of error!
The GPS itself is pretty good, I guess. It has a lot of nice options - like to avoid highways, find the fastest/shortest way, you can put a whole bunch of addresses in your favorites for a quick search. Too bad I can't even use it because of that stupid mount suction broke!
 Excellent product for the price November 12, 2008
The Garmin Streetpilot C340 is a very nice product, especially for the price. The text to speech feature is wonderful, the maps are clear and easy to read, and the touch screen is easy to use. It is very easy to set up, just plug into the computer for the initial set up and charge, and then it is ready to go. The preloaded destinations are plentiful, although not as up-to-date as I would have liked. However, I've talked to other people with different GPS systems from other makers, and this is a common problem. I use the Garmin daily, even when going to destinations I'm familiar with because I like the estimated distance and time of arrival functions. It also solves the problem of reading street signs at night, since the street names are on the map, and the ones needed are verbalized as well. I like the fact that it lets you know when you are approaching a turn before you are actually on it, and then again when it is time to turn. Adding and changing destinations are also very easy to do.
The GPS is very accurate and loads up quickly. However, it occasionally seems to have a little trouble when on multiple over/under passes (but then, so do I!).
I recommend the Garmin Streetpilot C340. Although it is not as sleek as some, the price is right and it is very user friendly with plenty of nice features.

Garmin c340- Ready to use out of box, few intuitive glitches but still easy to use, some out of date info.
Great product, great price November 11, 2008
Delivers as promised. User friendly and does everything its supposed to do. Easy install with clear instructions.
Don't leave home without it November 10, 2008
I cannot read maps or use the mapquest directions without missing a turn. I need specifics, like roads as I pass them so I can see how close I am getting to the road I need to turn on. This system gives you play by play directions until you get to your destination. I love, love, love this product. Matter of fact, each time I take it with me when someone else is driving, they usually get the model number and purchase it for themself. It is sooo easy to use and talks the directions to me step by step. When I'm somewhere it's confusing like a large city, I enlarge the map so I can look ahead to see where I'm headed. Cannot say enough good things about this product if you are location or map challenged like me!
