Amazon.com Product Description
The Garmin StreetPilot c550 GPS Vehicle Navigator represents the ultimate in GPS performance and simplicity. This portable navigator comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded maps and a wealth of options. Delivering the same easy to use and affordable navigation as Garmin's c300 series of vehicle navigators -- including a simple touchscreen interface, automatic route calculation, turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions, and over six million points of interest -- the StreetPilot c550 also offers Bluetooth wireless technology with hands-free calling, an integrated traffic receiver, an MP3 player, and much more. p table align="left" cellpadding="10" width="250" tbody tr td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/c550-1-lg.jpg" align="top" border="0"br smallibThe StreetPilot c550 delivers high-end GPS navigation, and is easy to use right out of the box./b/i small /small/small/td /tr /tbody /table table align="right" cellpadding="10" width="150" tbody tr td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/B000EXU4YK.jpg" align="top" border="1"br br smallibNavigation is easy with a touchscreen interface, voice-prompted directions, and more.

View larger./b/i/small /td /tr /tbody /table bAdvanced Wireless and GPS Technology/bbr At the heart of the StreetPilot c550 is a high-sensitivity WAAS-capable GPS receiver by SiRF that provides outstanding acquisition times and the ability to maintain a strong signal under heavy foliage and near city skyscrapers. This means you'll always know precisely where you are. Meanwhile, an automotive-grade, sunlight-readable, 2.8 x 2.1-inches (WxH) anti-glare TFT LCD touch-screen display offers easy readability. With dimensions of 4.4 x 3.2 x 2.2-inches (WxHxD), and at about nine ounces in weight, the StreetPilot c550 features a streamlined design that will fit easily on any dashboard with the included vehicle suction mount. The unit also features Garmin Lock -- an advanced anti-theft feature that disables the unit from performing any functions until you type in a specific four-digit PIN or take the unit to a predetermined location./p p The StreetPilot c550 also includes Bluetooth technology integrated with a microphone and dual speakers that lets you make hands-free mobile phone calls on a compatible Bluetooth wireless phone. You can view incoming calls on your c550, and simply tap the screen to answer. Just speak into the built-in microphone while staying focused on your driving. In addition, you can retrieve and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or the phone's call history log. You can also make calls from the more than six million points of interest database -- which includes hotels, restaurants, stores, and much more./p p Another feature unique to the c550 is its integrated traffic capabilities. The c550 includes the GTM 20, an integrated FM TMC traffic receiver with a free three-month trial subscription (for U.S. customers only). The GTM 20 notifies you of traffic conditions, construction and weather delays, and automatically suggests alternative routes. The navigator also comes with preloaded maps of North America and includes automatic routing, 2D or 3D map perspective, and turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names -- making navigation as easy as it gets. An included MP3 player lets you enjoy music from your digital collection while you drive, and an included SD memory card expansion slot means that you can load optional software, such as language and travel guides -- making travel even easier and more entertaining than ever./p p br clear="all" bWhat's in the Box/bbr StreetPilot c550, Preloaded City Navigator NT for North America or Europe (full coverage), FM traffic receiver with vehicle power cable, Real-time traffic services, Vehicle suction cup mount, Dashboard disk, USB cable, Carry case, Quick reference guide br br bProduct Description/bbr The portable StreetPilot c550 comes ready-to-go right out of the box with plenty of options.

J. Brito (Tampa, Usa)
the product was really good i really liked it the only problem was that it died after 2 weeks!!! of purchase.
 These are better than the new flat ones November 23, 2008
Dustin G. Lara (Colorado springs, CO)
This version (cu550) is a great product. The bluetooth function works great, the directions work great and its simplicity is amazing....its a shame there not making them any more...
I love it November 20, 2008
Mark Schumacher (Seattle, WA United States)
...very simple, easy to learn, use. Others have more features, but if all you need is tool for directions, and you don't like reading manuals, this is great. br / br /One knock on Amazon: they suggest purchasing the car charger accessory when you go to check out, so I did...but there was already one in the box. I should have caught this, but so should Amazon.
I love it! November 12, 2008
Andrew L. Hill (Owasso, Oklahoma)
I bought this from wal-mart.com about a year ago and have not had any problems with it. I love this thing! I tried not using it on a trip to Austin, TX, got myself lost, and then turned it on and found my way in a matter of minutes. The only complaint i have is that it sometimes takes a while to acquire the satellites but other than that, it's great! and the bluetooth handsfree feature for your phone works like a charm as well!
