Just bought this. Awesome deal. Including taxes and shipping it came to $98.52 by using code A2VBT487
I am also going to buy the tom tom One 140 for $59.99 from Amazon and the Garmin Nuvi 255w from Staples.
I will use all three and decide which one to keep and return the other two.
Anyone has experience on which of the three are "better"? I understand "better" is relative to each person's own taste's and needs but any general pros/cons of each ?
Is there already another thread comparing these three models on fatwallet somewhere?
got this on Amazon for same price a couple days ago. missed out on 10% but tax would have been almost the same and who knows when it would have shipped. good deal, tho. def worth it

Use AAA discount for 10%...offsets shipping costs

In for one.
Been a lurker here for years and this site has saved me some benjamins . Decided to sign up finally.
This is an excellent deal. Hope Target does not pull the dreaded "price mistake". I looked at the images of the box on the target site and it is INDEED the same one as the bf promo. Great find op.
I stand corrected. Thank you. Target deal is the 340s. Again, great find op.

It seems like the 340s and the 340s bundle are exactly the same except the bundle has a case.
Case not worth the extra $10 to me. bleh. $92 with tax and free shipping for the version without the case (non bundle) seems like the better value. I just placed another order for the version without the case and I will return the one that comes with the case. (I couldn't cancel the order online or over the phone with target for the first order. They said it already was processed and went to shipping fulfillment within 20 minutes)
got one with case for $100.97 after 10% off, tax and $5.98 shipping, before Bing 10%. Thank OP.
Missed Amazon $59.99 140, later on found it was 140 not 140S. I think speech will be useful. Was also thinking why Newegg's $59.99 was not alive yet, and found it was 140 without S, do not need to wait anymore. Bought target 340S with no regret.
budster said: The $99.99 package deal at best buy is for the XL 330s model. Big difference between this and the XL 340s.

Got one. Thanks everybody. Used the above codes. Not AAAs. Total cost before BING $87.30FS. NO SALES TAX IN OREGON. I cancelled 2 other orders online that had higher cost. Dont know why anybody had a problen cancelling.
Reviews say minimal free space upon delivery. Reviewers (and manufacturer) suggest deleting voice languages (ie. French and/or Spanish) before trying to update map... They say you can always add languages back at manufacturers website...
340 has IQ routes and lane guidance. 340s has all the above and TTS 340 and 340s has 2gb of space and 64mb ram. they have 2gb maps which are better and expensive maps. (Say windows 7)
330s has 1gb of space and 32mb ram. The software on it is old and cannot be updated, its more than a year old. (Say Windows XP)
No SD card or Micro sd card slot on either.
340 is better hardware and better software. and yes the included Mexico Map
720 has Bluetooth for hands-free calling MP3 player and photo viewer; integrated FM transmitter SD card slot and Battery life 5 hours whereas 340 family has battery life of 3 hours

Ah I almost did that but it didn't look my store had any in stock the 3 times I've been. Hubby updated it last night fine- no troubles at all.
