Digital camera reviews of Garmin StreetPilot c530 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator

Digital camera Review: "A Great Deal"
Summary: 5 Stars

I think this thing is awesome. My wife took the unit with her out west to use in the rental car. I programmed in the airport and the cabin address where she was meeting her family. It even give an accurate time of arrival. She had no problem getting around at all. I just used it for a 13 hour trip to Alabama. It took me from my front door to the entrance of the hotel. Not even my wife's MapQuest directions or following a map were that precise. Plus, I like when you get off a exit and venture off the main path for food or whatever it takes you right back to where you're suppose to be. Not only is the screen a large easy to see screen but you can see it great even in the direct sun light because of the anti-glare feature. I had no problem with it falling off the windshield like some have mentioned. It is like having the yellow pages and a guide to get you wherever it is you must go. It's easy to program and is highly accurate. I also thought the price was great and the delivery time unbelievable. Kudos to Amazon for great service. I highly reccomend to everyone that ventures out of town.
