Selling my GPS. It is a Garmin C340. Great gps that is slightly used. Only used for about 3 months and in very good condition.
Advanced text-to-speech functionality and traffic alerts. With the text-to-speech feature, the GPS device can now tell you the names of upcoming streets and points of interest, instead of more-generic commands. For example, the voice prompt will say, "Turn left on Main Street," instead of "Turn left in 500 feet," letting you keep your eyes on the road and not at the devices screen. Other navigational tools on the c340 include preloaded maps of North America, more than 6 million points of interest, and a 64,000-color touch screen. For more information on the Garmin StreetPilot c340, read our full review of the Garmin StreetPilot c330.

What It Does:
Find It and Go!
The StreetPilot c340 has 18 categories from which to choose to begin your navigation - for example:
Address
Food
Lodging
My Locations
Fuel
Intersections
Shopping
Entertainment
Recreation
Cities
Browse Map
After selecting a category, you select a destination, and touch Go! The c340 will guide you to your chosen location with voice prompts, directions at the top of the screen, and a map with arrows. You can spell out the location by using the onscreen keyboard. Finding an address and finding intersections works similarly. Locations can also be found by touching a point directly on the map display.
My Locations
The c340 allows you to save any found places, including your current location. You can later navigate to those places by selecting "My Locations." Saved places can be edited by changing the name or map symbol. A home location can be saved for a place where you might return often. The unit also stores the last 50 recently found places to make returning to those places convenient.
Viewing Other Pages
The Trip Information page gives useful statistics such as current speed, maximum speed, moving time, stopped time, and total time. The Current Route page is a list of turn-by-turn directions and the Next Turn page shows the turn on the map with the distance and time until that turn. The c340 also allows you to add a detour to your current route.

Garmin has succeeded in making this model easy to use even though it does quite a bit. I needed to go to the local post office and navigating through the necessary screens to find that particular address was quick and intuitive. The volume of the voice seemed adequate but in situations with high noise level it may be marginal. The text-to-speech feature was very good at pronouncing street names.
Route calculation and re-calculation was fairly quick. (For those wondering what "re-calculation" is, if youre navigating and you decide, for instance, to take a shortcut, the c340 will detect youre off the planned route and will re-calculate a new appropriate route.)
