The deal is great, just wanted to mention that the technology on this unit is getting a bit dated. For a little more Nuvi 360 is a little more current offering. OM |

The Nuvi 360 press release was in Oct. 2006 and the C580 press release was in Jan. 2007. So the Nuvi 360 does not really seem like more of a current offering. Plus it does not have near the features of the C580. ObviousMan said:The deal is great, just wanted to mention that the technology on this unit is getting a bit dated.

Own it and love it! Yep, I have trouble with the windshield mount sticking as well and would love to pick up a beanbag for it. |

Also, don't forget to lock the lever. I used my daughter's C340 and never had an issue with the mount. It stuck too well, making it hard to remove. |

Similar Garmin C550, not the 580 is a bit cheaper at Costco.com free shipping. http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?whse=BC&topnav=&prodid=11277587&ec=BC-EC877-CatHome&pos=9&lang=en-US comes with bean bag stand for free. I have this one also, its thicker than the nuvi's but its a nice size. Very fast processor, multiple voices, bluetooth, mp3, and much more. I definitely recommend this for the budget and for a great device. Plus Costco doubles the warranty to boot. tEEJ |

I bought this on the last Amazon deal(219) and returned it in a week. Its made of cheap plastics including the touch screen. Its so cheap. Its really bulky and cant be easily taken anywhere else than the car. The MSN direct thing was a Joke as it shows 3 days older Gas prices and the traffic alerts where never updated even though i had good reception. Unfortunately the bluetooth also didnt work properly with my phone. My comments are not a thread crap, but seriously buy the Nuvi models. I bought the NUVI 200W and i am very happy with it. |

comes with bean bag stand for free.C550 is $187.98 at Amazon. If you want the bean bag mount, it's $19.99 more, so about $8 more than Costco. However, most people pay tax at Costco and not at Amazon. Less at Amazon w/o BB mount, about the same w/ BB mount. |

Now 189! Excellent deal. Just received mine and works like a charm. MSN direct is cool! Traffic works well in LA. Free 2009 maps update. Personally I dont mind the thicker size as opposed to Nuvi models. There's no reason for me to want to carry this around in my pocket. Like I'm going to walk to another city? I like the size, it works very well and is at a great price for what you get. |

Now $179. Would gladly have the size and features vs. a smaller Nuvi w/o the features for the same or higher price. |
