Our The Garmin
StreetPilot c340 provides in-car navigation that is simple for anyone to use
directly out of the box. After selecting a destination from the user-friendly
touch screen interface, Garmin’s text-to-speech feature tells users the name of
the street, when to turn, and in what direction. If you miss your turn, the
Garmin Streetpilot c340 automatically calculates a new route to the
destination
Notification of traffic delays is a Garmin
Streetpilot c340 option that lets drivers see congested areas via a color-coded
map. This feature lets users avoid traffic by simply pushing a button that will
calculate a new route. This traffic awareness is made possible via the new
Garmin GTM 10 FM TMC receiver that connects to selected Garmin street navigation
products. The GTM 10 receives digital data from specific FM broadcast stations
in select major metro areas throughout the United States and
Europe.
Garmin has also added the ability for customers
to augment the preloaded maps with custom POI’s from industry-standard CSV
files, such as school zones and safety cameras. In addition, a proximity alert
feature is included to optionally notify the driver of upcoming custom POI’s.
The Garmin StreetPilot c340 comes preloaded with highly detailed City Select NT
street data of the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. The database
features nearly six million points of interest—including hotels, restaurants,
gas stations, ATMs, and attractions.
The Garmin StreetPilot c340 joins Garmin’s
growing line of automotive GPS navigators. It has a bright, 3.5-inch diagonal,
TFT display with touchscreen; dual integrated speakers for high-quality voice
prompts; and an internal lithium-ion battery for out-of-car route
planning.
The Garmin StreetPilot c-series boasts distinctive and sleek
styling—the units’ only buttons are a rotary volume knob and an on/off switch.
The device is secured by a suction-mount cradle that fastens to the windshield,
for easy portability between vehicles. Users can customize their unit’s
appearance with an array of colored faceplates (sold separately).
