Strengths: Full maps of US. Switch between 3D and birdseye view maps. Auto switch between daytime and nightime graphics for easy viewing. Lots of data, easy to set up and use.
Weakness: Business directory (hotels, gas stations, attractions etc) is at times very up-to-date and other times VERY out-of-date. Some map errors.
Research: I've been looking for two years for a gps device for my car. An upcoming move to a new area added new focus to the search. I started looking at the Magellan Roadmate 700 because of the complete US mapping (I like the idea of just getting in the car and taking off without having to download maps). Magellan's reviews on PiceGrabber were positive but no one offered comparisons to other gps...
Strengths: Ease of use, display, size, easy (no) set-up, sensitivity of the GPS. The C330 is pre-loaded with US maps. The display is excellent, easy to read, and the touch screen interface is very simple.
Weakness: Very few. In very bright sun, the screen fades a bit. Garmin does NOT provide a CD for the map on this unit--so maps cannot be loaded onto a PC. The manual that comes with the unit is minimal.
I bought this without doing my usual research about 3 weeks ago, and am very happy with it. This is an excellent GPS for getting from point A to point B easily. I have a sophisticated GPS on my boat, where I can enter multiple way-points either graphically or by latitude/longitude co-ordinates. It is complicated to use, but serves the needs of nautical navigation very well. The C330 is NOT that...
Strengths: Easy to learn and to use. Good sound and screen, convenient small size. Fun.
Weakness: Occasionally makes minor direction mistakes and database is a little out of date.
Fun, small, easy to use and accurate GPS unit. Perfect no, but certainly very good. Many other reviews are quite good for this product and detailed. I'll try to give you a few new facts. The C330 is small (fist sized) and has a 4 hour battery that is recharged in the car or with a supplied AC cord. Will be easy to pack and take on a vacation with a rental car in the US. Note, a wire goes from the...
Strengths: I find the names of dirt roads that have no signs show up on my GPS. It is so easy to use. I am 72 years old and get lost so easily. I find this is fantastic! Will never get lost again.
Weakness: My address does not show up when I type it in but my house shows up when it shows where I am now. I clicked it on favorites, so it leads me from that spot. Also, the local Walmart is not shown.
I find the chargers (car and home) that I have for my Motorola Razer cell phone also work with my GPS. Not as bulky as the car charger that comes with the GPS. Handy, I don't have to pack as much when I travel. I love this unit!
Strengths: Very accurate, easy to use, large enough display, updates are easy
Weakness: must have mount because power adapter connects to it, one day it took an 1/8 of my trip home before it locked to the satellites
I've only had the c330 for a couple days but I'm impressed. It is very accurate, works in my living room(so I can program trips). I did have one problem the other day when i was coming home from work. It took about 2 or 3 miles before it locked to the satellites. The roads around work are all full of tall trees so I'm assuming that was the problem. When I leave out of the garage its connected in...
Strengths: Easy to operate, has touch screen, power up and finds satellite quickly, very portable,
Weakness: Locks up at times but reset works fine. In some cases it’s off about ¼ mile in location, so far not many. It need a function to correct the errors as found. It needs a function to find a city without giving an address.
I have owned several GPS's in the past and this one is a great buy for the price. With some updates this could help the unit the best on the market at this price.
Strengths: POI's, Language's, usb updates every year, refresh quickness, ease of use - my 10yr old can use it.
Weakness: Freeway dead spots tend to lock up the unit requiring a reboot. It doesn't happen very often.
I already own a Garmin C340 (for 1 1/2 yrs)- this was a second unit because I love the first one so much. I've recommended these units to several co-workers. I should be a sales rep for Garmin or at least get a referral fee. I refer to them as being like a cellphone or microwave - once you have one you don't know how you could do without it, or how you made it without one.
Strengths: It will take you where ever you want to go. Easy to use and great for trips. Where ever you are find gas stations and restaurants from fast food to chineese food.
Weakness: I cannot find any
I wanted a gps that worked right out of the box. So the first place I look for anything is Pricegrabber. I found it at Amazon for $553 and went to my local Best Buys for a price match. The manager said the best he could do is take $100 off the $699 price. With tax and a service contract $742 so I said maybe later. I ordered it at Amazon $553 and a service contract $69. Total $622 and a $120...
Strengths: Small, lightweight, big enough screen to read without obstructing view significantly. Directions are usually perfect, sometimes a bit odd, but consistently functional.
Weakness: Map not up to date, sometimes computes weird routes. Doesn't say street names out loud, sometimes identifies exits by name other than the one on the exit.
If you drive in only one region of the country, you may want to consider a cheaper model that holds less map space but otherwise behaves identically. If you live in an area where traffic is a frequent problem, you may want to consider a more expensive model that allows subscription to traffic reports. If you travel around the country and rarely experience traffic congestion, this is the model for...

Discontinued Model
Strengths: The design is decent and is probably carried through on Garmin's devices that are not discontinued.
Weakness: If you buy from PCRush (and possibly this is true for other vendors), the maps will be outdated.
You can update your maps by buying the new ones for $70.00. However, the new maps do not fit on this device. You will have to copy one segment of the maps at a time, which would be pretty inconvenient.
