The device is secured by a suction-mount cradle that fastens to the windshield for easy portability between vehicles. You can customize the unit's appearance with an array of colored faceplates that are sold separately. For navigators who only require detailed maps for a limited area, the StreetPilot c320 features an SD card slot, a 128 MB SD card, and MapSource City Select street data on CD-ROM. To load the area you need, simply select the specific area of interest on your computer and the data is transferred from a PC to the unit via a fast USB connection.

GPS is good but... April 12, 2010 Bo Zhou (BUFFALO, NY, US) It is a good GPS and response fast, but the problem is that it is quite easy to fall down from the window, maybe cause it's too heavy. So it's not convinous to use.
good GPS May 29, 2009 Jacob Y. Choi (Vienna, VA) I had the unit for over 3 yrs and it still works fine. Although the down-side is you need to purchase a separate memory card to down load entire U.S. map from CD. If you are living in the city with tall buildings, I would not recommand ... unit tends to lose the location and keeps re-routing and get you lost. A decent unit if you are looking for a general purpose GPS need.
terrible purchase December 17, 2008 H. Miguelena The GPS was out dated, and when I ordered the seller never said anything about the need to buy or get extra software or CD to update. No cradle, my brother had to buy it. Even with the CD from Garmin did not work properly. Terrible purchase.
Perfect! December 3, 2008 D. Mcfalls (Waynesboro,PA) I've have 3 GPS's all Garmin. This was my first, I use it everyday at work with Verizon. Only downside is buying map updates every year (1 per unit)
All the good stuff but..... June 29, 2008 L. Rha (Los Angeles, Ca United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I won't go over all the specs and positives, because others have gone through all of that and there is no need for repeating. The Garmin is everything great that other reviews are mentioning, but I'm just going to review the battery issue I have continued to have on this Garmin.... After having the GARMIN c320 for about 9 months or so, i had the problem of the battery not working on it's own (the unit would only work when sitting on the car charger mount. Even though at times it would say something like "charging the battery" in it's off setting, it was NOT charging the battery (since when taken off the mount it would not work at all). I procrastinated for about 3 months, because I didn't take the unit out of my car much so it wasn't such a big issue, but almost on the last day of warranty, I called and just had it replaced. Customer service for Garmin is great. There's no convincing or "did you plug the unit in" sort of questions.. they just took your word for what was happening and replaced the unit. I had the second unit for about 4 months or so before the same battery situation happened again. This time I was out of the 1 yr original warranty and the 90d warranty of the replacement... but customer service were more than willing to switch it out again.. (great customer service, very flexible).
With this 3rd unit, it didn't take more than a couple months for it to have the battery issue again. I've been too cheap to buy another unit, and there isn't really a reason, since this one does work when it's connected to the car charger mount.
The main inconveniences of this battery not working is that it seems to lose it's satelites since it's a dead unit when the car isn't on. It seemed before that with the battery working, the unit connects immediately to the satellites and maps your way very quickly. When I turn my car on now.. the unit will be show the time when I had turned the car off and will take anywhere from 3 minutes to 15 minutes to connect to satellites. There have been times that i've had to turn it off and on (usually around the 10 minute mark) to see if maybe it was "frozen" or something.....
BTW, I'm sure the locating satellites delay issues is a problem with the unit, since I'm in a very urban city (Los Angeles) and it did not have these problems prior to the battery issue.
Oh, one other issue, in downtown Los Angeles, it gets very confused...(maybe due to streets with freeway overpasses; though this happens when i'm not near the freeway too)....so even when it has mapped a nice set of directions and I'm following them, out of nowhere it'll recalculate and ask me to make some turns when the location is straight ahead...
Also, there are several locations where it will tell me to take an inconvenient onramp to a freeway where there is a perfectly good one, one block ahead on my right (make sense?).
I've still had the unit for 3 years or so... so I'm not entirely unhappy with it,...
