Garmin StreetPilot Western Europe + Car Kit

Garmin enters the smartphone app market with StreetPilot for the iPhone.

Comprehensive destination options ; Full points of interest database plus Google Local Search ; Keyword search for address and POI

More expensive than the competition ; Extras add more to cost ; Mount for iPhone 4 chassis only

support is noticeable by its absence, though. You can also add a found location to your favourites with a single click, and search for POIs near this location.

Garmin Street Pilot III GPS review: Garmin Street Pilot III GPS

Garmin Street Pilot III GPS

Detailed text and voice-prompted direction; sharp color display; ultraportable; easy to use; fast recalculations.

Only one district-coverage-area, street-level map included; additional maps cost extra.

If you do not have a car with a built-in navigation system, this portable GPS system has every feature you will want and will not steer you wrong.

My Garmin Pilot has saved the day more than once. ”

My Garmin Pilot has the female voice, so is named Jill. While vacationing we used her to get us from Phoenix, AZ to the Grand Canyon then Las Vegas. With a lot of night driving, she made the trip comfortable and not so scary in the mountains.
