I have wanted a GPS for the MH and one that I could also carry on the trail. I haven't found a small unit that has voice prompts yet so I'm looking at the C330.

Was wondering how good the coverage was for the C330 around buildings and in heavy trees?

Any feedback on this model would be great since it goes on sale the day after Christmas.

Just an update to say that I got my c330 today from GPSDiscount.com $324 + shipping. It took all of about 5 minutes to learn how to setup and operate. Will try it out tomorrow.

We made a 750 miles trip yesterday (Van not RV) and it worked great. Even driving routes that I have been on before were much easiser and enjoyable to drive--I wasn't looking for turns or guessing how far to the next turn.
I also really like the trip stastistics.
I have loaded custom POIs for Flying J, Wal-Mart and Military Campgrounds and it is so simple now to locate exactly where we want to stop.
My brother is shopping prices on the C330 for his Caddie..
