StreetPilot c550 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator? NT street maps, including a hefty points of interest (POIs) database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply touch the super-bright sunlight-readable color screen to enter a destination, and the c550 takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. It even announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road. In addition, the c550 accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. The European version even includes a preloaded safety camera database containing the location of safety cameras for parts of Europe.

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.

Easy to use right out of the box. I typed in the address and it took me right there. The maps are clear, and the graphic shows your car exactly where you are on the map. Clear directions announce the street names. I’m very pleased with the ease of use and the value.
