(EDIT 12-19-2006: If you're looking at the 2820, unless you drive a motorcycle I strongly recommend the StreetPilot c550 which I've also reviewed. Read this review and then compare it to the c550.)

The unit itself is pretty solid, measuring about the size of an oversized Stephen King novel, weighing about a pound and having a large widescreen-format touchscreen with four (backlit) rubberized buttons to the right of the screen. A power switch is on the right side, ports for microphone-in and audio-out are on the left side, and a mini USB port is on the back. The screen and buttons automatically adjust their brightness depending on the ambient light (the more light there is the brighter they get), but you can override the brightness levels manually.

Very easy to set up and use as of now the XM radio feature can't broadcast through the car's speaker system but instead throug the included speaker on the power cord. Touch screen is very readable and easy to use. The Bluetooth feature works perfectly with your BT enabled phone.

The Garmin StreetPilot 2820 integrates wireless technology with a microphone and speaker that lets you make hands-free calls on a compatible Bluetooth phone. Motorcyclists can connect a Bluetooth-enabled headset or helmet simultaneously with a Bluetooth phone to the StreetPilot 2820 to talk hands-free on the road or receive wireless navigation audio prompts to their destination. Bluetooth also sends MP3, and Audio Books audio in mono but will not transmit the XM radio audio.

The Garmin Streetpilot 2820 is a 12-channel, automotive global positioning device. Designed for use in land-based vehicles. Rugged case design affords the durability needed in some settings. Has an internal antenna which is desirable for activities where an external antenna would get in the way.
