Does it call out turns or just visual?

Not sure if this is a setting or not, but it beeps prior to the turn, then once again at the turn.

None of the bicycle Garmins call out turns, however it does beep to alert you to upcoming turns and then displays the turn-by-turn directions. Be aware that when you buy this,or any other Edge series Garmins that, in addition to the device, you will need to buy or upload maps for your particular region (i.e. Western U.S., Eastern U.S., etc.). These are best purchased or downloaded from RideWithGPS.com rather than Garmin. Although I traded my Touring Plus in for the 810 model, I've found this GPS indispensable and wouldn't tour without one now. I used it recently in Switzerland after uploading the maps for that region and never got lost as long as I was paying attention to it.

It is just visual, and not always accurate. It can get confused fairly easily. But overall I like it.

Yup! Turns are shown on screen as you approach the turn. Have a great ride!!

I have not encountered that problem. It alerts me a little more than 1/2 mile before turn then keeps me posted every so often until the turn. Wish I could give u more insight.

It does indicate (and tell you) whether to go left, right, or center lane (if there are 3 options). And yes, gives you advance warning.

No. Unlike how it's advertised, it seems to only have "on" and "off" options. When it's on, its rotating and changing colors, which is not what I wanted. It's also annoyingly loud, I'm sorry to say.

As far as I know, Bob it's just showing the different angles and how it goes together. I hope this helps.

It only shows you what road you are on when it is NOT navigating to a destination you put in. When you are navigating to a destination the unit is "working" and shows you what it thinks you NEED and that is the NEXT turn and NOT the street you are on. This makes perfect sense. If you are in an area you don't know you don't need the road you are on but rather the road you turn on next and the distance to this road and turn. After all, it already gave you the road you are on when you turned on it. If it just said, "turn on Elm St." then you are on Elm St. :) Make sense?

Ok thanks. I thought mine was broken since I set its preferences to Avoid U-Turns and it was still telling me to "make a U-turn". For some reason it does not have oneway street info for at least two cities here in Oregon with populations over 12000.

Yes... It will tell you how close you are from a certain pitch. If the wheel spins to the left, it means you are flat. Right for sharp.

No, it does not scold you by saying "Recalculaing!" It simply redirects you. You can tell if you missed your turn by glancing at the screen before you've strayed too far and seeing your progress off the marked route.

I'm like the original poster...If you land on Double Trouble space by exact count, you take another turn! (2 turns - one where you landed on it and the additional turn)...(But if you pop a 6 and land on Double Trouble, you take only one additional turn, (and? Anyone else find these instructions were written by a 5 year old? What is the difference between "another turn" & "one additional turn"?)

Yes. Very detailed. And does turn by turn with audible prompts. Another neat feature is round trip generation, tell it how far you want to ride and it comes up with 2 or 3 possible routes for you

No it doesn't do anything like that. There's a thing you can manually turn but it's basically a lightbulb on a stick surrounded by black plastic with holes. If it does change color you can't see it because of the dim light and flimsy plastic.

It is a choice on the menu. You have either normal mode or turn on motion mode.

I have never used the Nuvi but the 800 does allow for turn by turn directions. It's possible but it is only chimes and beeps, no voice instruction.

The C340 has "full" spoken directions as well. It will read the street names and exit numbers to you. The C330 only tells you to "turn left" and so on, although it does display the names/exits at the top.

Since you have purchase this item, can you tell me if directions are also given by voice?

If you mean voice directional prompts and turn-by-turn directions, yes , it does. You have options for a female or a male voice. But if you are asking if you can get directions using your voice like Siri in iPhone, it doesn't.
