- Garmin Street Pilot c580
- I was very disppointed with the Garmin Street Pilot c580 the unit only worked for 1 day and I could no longer power it back on again. I have owned a Garmin Street Pilot 330 for 2 years and never had a issue. I was suprised to recieve a defective product. I wanted to upgrade but now I will just contiune to use what I currently have.

- Absolutely the Best GPS Available!
- This GPS is fast...miss a turn and it updates immediately...no waiting. When only the fastest and the best will do - pick a Garmin.

- Great for the money
- Am very pleased with the Garmin. It was a replacement for one I didn't particularly like (not a Garmin). Got me out of some funny places on a recent trip. I'm a person who doesn't get lost usually, but followed signs and did. I know there are units with bigger screens and maybe more options, but this one is terrific. The shape is kind of funny. Most are flat backed, but this one will (sometimes - not in my personal car) sit in the console. Haven't activated the MSN yet so don't know how well it will work in our traffic.
All in all, this is a great piece of equipment, and I'm glad I picked it to replace the one I had - 2008-10-24, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Navigation System
- I recently purchased two Garmin c 580's, one for my personal use and one for my office for use in operating a small transportation system. They are very reliable and easy to use. I have used it on several trips already and found the local info regarding lodging and restaurants extremely helpful. I highly recommend this product.

- Nice GPS !!
- Got the product on a Friday. Took about 6 hours to load the latest US maps. Gave it to my wife the next morning for a trip to downtown Chicago, along the way picking up a friend. Never been to either location before. This baby got her to each location without a hitch. She used MSN Direct to locate a parking garage when they arrived downtown. It couldn't have been easier with very little instruction on how to use the GPS. The GPS links up quick. Re-calculating directions seemed around 5 seconds, in those few times when I knew better. MSN Direct is good around large metropolitan areas. Being just outside of Chicago, the MSN Direct signal is not too strong but it gets stronger as you get closer to Chicago. The information is reasonably accurate. I've easily linked 3 bluetooth phones to the GPS. Only 1 phone can be active with the GPS but it's easy to select which phone. The mic and speaker work well. The screen shows when a call is coming in. Just touch the screen to answer or hang-up. The C580 took me to central Missouri and back exactly the way I've driven it many times before. I would definitely recommend it. No one's been able to match the Amazon price on a NEW C580 with a 1 YEAR WARRANTY. Others match the price but it's typically for a re-furbished unit with a 90 day warranty.
