Garmin 7200 and street names? Is the 7200 good for this or any other recommendations?

No, it does not display street names, only the main ones and even then, very few. It does display the street you are on and the directions are very clear and repetitive, though. Oddly, I live in South Florida and it does show the name of every single canal and lake. I have no idea why the software developers thought those would be of high interest to the user and not the detailed names of the streets. It does come preloaded with mapping software, and you get one free upgrade with Garmin within 30 days of registering the device with them. Hope this helps, but you've probably already made your purchasing decision by now.

I have the Garmin StreetPilot c340 and I just LOVE it. Its not too big but not too small and it does everything I need it to. I don't think you would be disappointed in it. The only suggestion I would make is that you purchase the tripod dash mount to go with it. The suction one that comes with it for the windshield is bulky, inconvenient and I don't like it. Hope this helps you!

I use it with Windows 7 64-bit and Microsoft Streets & Trips 2013 with no problem at all. The GPS located most often within 5 seconds once started.Just install the software that comes with the GPS receiver and set it up in Microsoft Streets & Trips and you're good to go.

Yes. I just put in address and zip and it will show me if there are more than one street wih the same name. Also update your Garmin with your computer program that came with the Garmin.

The link from where I bought the adapter list compatible Garmin units. Yes the street pilot c550 is listed. Go to the link below and you will see it listed http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000F78582?ref_=pe_527950_33920250

Thanks for the post Laurent. That clears it up. Garmin should probably put that somewhere easy to find

I believe TrainingPeaks WKO+ will do this. The Garmin 910xt is on the supported list.

Of the two, I would go with the Garmin 810. I own the 810 and have been happy with it. You can program your rides and upload them to the 810. You can share rides with others, although there are others that are much more common with other riders and ride organizers. I have used it as I have traveled with my bike to places like Spain and Hawaii without issue. The computer provides turn by turn direction for your route. But, I would warn that the graphics of the Garmins are not anywhere near the quality of a smartphone (android, iPhone,...)

It does work in my 720 and is great ! If you go to the Garmin website it should tell you if it will be ok with 2006c......I was always under the impression that all of the g2 charts will work ? Sorry I can't be of any further help...Garmin should be able to lock it in for you.....1-800-800-1020

According to the product comparison on Garmin's website the c530 does not announce street and point of interest names. You need to go to the c550 for that feature.

Garmin has a really good customer service team. Call them...they can answer the question for you. I've never heard of nuvi 355

No, I didn't get an answer.However, I went ahead and bought the Garmin 275 unit. I've tried it in France only so far. It worked "fine" with a few glitches. Like slowness in picking up satellites (and the inability to do so in closed buildings/tunnels).And having some street names saved with a different spelling than what seems to be the "well-known/correct" spelling (like the spelling of the street address on the hotel website. This caused me to be unable to find the address on the device. It took me considerable time to figure it out!).

The 810 has a very high-level mapset installed-- unusable for turn-by-turn or street-level navigation. For that you have to buy one of the mapsets that they offer for the device, and also, you'll need to have a memory card to store that on because the internal memory in the device is not enough. Great device, however-- I've been happy with it.

I don't see why some make a big fuss about the C330 nat having the capability of speaking the name of the street you need to turn onto. The fact that the C330 does display the street name at the top of the screen is adequate in most cases. The route indicator on the map itself has a large red arrow that is continually showing your route and exactly where to turn. With an accuracy of something like 50 feet, I don't see where it is such a necessity to have to have the thing tell you the street name when it's time to make a turn.

I would recommend the Garmin over the Magellan, I've owned two Garmin's an I3 and a Nuvi 350. I had returned a Magellan Maestro because I didn't think its routing capabilities were as good as Garmin. I would also suggest the Nuvi 265T or the WT if you want the wide version, that has free traffic it's newer than the 760 and it's about the same price. I think the only thing that the 760 does that is better is that is has multi routing capabilities, which I wouldn't need anyway.

Really don't know but the Garmin nuvi 3597 LMTHD is awesome -- the best one I have ever owned
