 Good unit March 11, 2008
The GPS is very accurate, to within a few feet. The maps have nearly all businesses and restaurants, but not all. I was not able to find a qdoba in some cities, but was in others.
The touchscreen was remarkably accurate, and easy to type on.
Customer service on the unit was also very friendly and helpful, and spoke english as their first language.
A 5-star product.
 Excellent Affordable GPS January 22, 2008

I bought this GPS two years ago and it has worked great ever since. It was affordable then, and even more now. It doesn't have all of the bells and whistles the new ones have, but it makes up for it by being extremely easy to use. Out of the box it takes literally 5 minutes to learn how to use.
I also like this exact model because it doesn't have an on-board hard drive and therefore you can add any size SD card to it. This keeps the cost low as SD cards have dropped in price lately. A single 2 gig card will hold maps of the entire US.
Does exactly what its supposed to do December 16, 2007

A great basic GPS device that works exactly as advertised. Text to speech may be a nice perk, but you really don't need it, since a quick glance at the display gives you all the information you need.
There are limitations you don't get with a higher end model however. You can't customize your route on a PC and upload it to the C320. Sometimes, it takes you on a wierd routing. It *will* get you there however, and if you're unfamiliar with the place, it probably doesn't matter if the route's not the most intuitive.
 Garmin - Inaccuracy at a price November 16, 2007

I found one of these for $200, and based on the reviews I figured I'd be pleasantly surprised.
I thought wrong.
Not only are the maps highly inaccurate, but it doesn't give enough notice on when to turn, so missing turns is quite common. The routes this thing takes aren't usually the optimal choice, and it likes to avoid the highway even though it's on the default settings. So you end up taking a ton of back roads that really slow down your trip. I recently missed a trip to the movie theater because of this unit. When it said I was arriving at the destination, it brought me to a field. That's right, a FIELD.
Not only am I out the $200 for this inaccurate POS, but I'm out $20 for the movie tickets. Thanks a lot, Garmin.

I love Garmin GPS products but I wish I got the 330 because this model does not come with the pre-loaded maps of teh USA. If you are going to buy a GPS have the maps pre-loaded. IT is just a lot easier then trying to find an SD card big enough for the USA
