 Hide
CNET Editor's rating: 7.7 out of 10
Reviewed by John R. Delaney Review date: 11/14/05 The good: The Garmin StreetPilot i series benefits from ease of use, an accurate GPS receiver, and affordability. The bad: A downside of the Garmin StreetPilot i series is its small screen. The bottom line: Don't let its diminutive size fool you--the Garmin StreetPilot i series is a powerful, feature-rich GPS system with an extremely user-friendly interface. Product brief - Garmin StreetPilot i5
Hide
Description: The Garmin Streetpilot I5 is a 12-channel, automotive global positioning device. Compared to other automotive GPS receivers on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $230. Pros: Audible waypoint alert mechanism ensures you won't miss the next turn on your route. Utilizes WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) technology to achieve an error margin of 3 meters or less. Share information, update database maps, and add programs using this receiver's USB computer connection. System includes MapSource city navigator North America NT. Cons: Has audible signal(s) alert, which is somewhat less favorable than some similarly priced GPS receivers. For example, the Garmin Streetpilot C340 , a 12-channel GPS receiver at around $210, has navigation instructions and warnings alerts. Suitability: For road trips, family outings and business travel. Designed for use in land-based vehicles. Has an internal antenna which is desirable for activities where an external antenna would get in the way. This unit is lightweight, weighing in at 5.3 oz. Value: Overall, this GPS receiver's features are in line with its price. This unit is able to store up to 500 waypoints. This is in line with the average GPS device. Suggestions: This GPS device has only internal memory. If you plan to store many trips or add base maps, you may wish to consider a unit that has removable storage media.
