Digital camera Review: Disappointing Product Quality
Summary: 1 Stars

After reading reviews on the many GPS navigation products on the market I settled on the Garmin StreetPilot c550 for ease of use and appeared high quality. I spent the extra $200 above the c530 getting the Bluetooth and MP3 player as an extra measure in purchasing a premium product. Well folks, you can imagine my shock to find the unit non-operational (broke, dead, nothing) on the fourth use within two weeks of delivery.

To be sure the interface was very intuitive, picked up the GPS signals extremely quick and was overall a nice piece of equipment to have in the big city. Heck, it was very amazing to key in Starbucks in a nearby suburb and find 10 stores close to my proximity.

The point is that the c550 met my needs instantly, yet the product quality absolutely did not meet expectations. As a means to avoid the direct (an often published) hassles of dealing with Garmin, I am returning the unit to the retailer. At this point I'll be looking at alternative GPS units to find a manufacture which subscripes to high quality standards (at least five sigma of quality, or 230 defect per 1,000,000 produced, a reasonable amount by today's top standards in electronics).

Digital camera Review: Does the job
Summary: 4 Stars

Works fine. Bright screen and using it is intuitive. Found the text to speech female voice annoying, and figured out how to change it to the male voice. Much better. The one feature it doesn't have that I would have liked is a "dry run", where the gps takes you through the trip route on screen before you start. The internal maps aren't perfect - there are two places where it tried to send me the wrong way up a 1-way street.

Digital camera Review: Doesn't get much better!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have a Nuvi 660 and just bought this unit for my wife, and she loves it. The screen is a bit small compared to the Nuvi :), but all in all, has all the necessary features. Great GPS.

Digital camera Review: Dont need a GPSto find this great deal!
Summary: 5 Stars

This product is wonderful!! It has saved my relationship several times over. My wife usually directs and I object, then the fight starts... not anymore. My GPS KNOWS where to take me and how! Easy to use, offers several options with the points of interest, and the traffic indicator saved me a 30 min. wait in traffic on day. Best price anywhere too. 10/10.
