Rating: - Sent me with the wrong cable, can't use it.This product was sent to me with the wrong kind of cable and I can't use it. Please allow me to exchange with the correct kind of cable. I was disappointed with the wrong package. I wish I could exchange with the correct kind of cable and product. Please help. Rating: - Can't recommendPurchased October 2007. Stopped functioning completely May 2009. On a 350 mile trip "quickest routing" from Point A to point B was completely different than "quickest routing" returning from point B to point A. Recently misdirected to an airport which had been closed and relocated approximately 15 miles away more than 10 years ago. I have had two excellent Garmin aviation products with excellent support over several years, and was surprised and disappointed at this second rate C330. Rating: - Refurbished unit died on meAfter a few weeks of use this unit just stopped working. I think there was a loose connection inside, because after I smacked it, it would power up again, but after that it couldn't find the map data. I'd say that between the old map data, large form factor and questionable reliability it's not worth the hassle to try. Rating: - It will disappoint you eventually!!!I liked it when I got it. I liked it for a whole year. It worked fine. The maps that came with the device were little outdated, but since the highways in my state are all pretty old, there were no major problems. The disappointment comes two months ago, when I do what the manufacturer recommends and UPDATE the software on the unit. It is now UNUSABLE and garmin's customer support is abhorrent. I would NOT recommend you get a garmin unless you're ok with being ignored when you tell them there's a problem. Oh, and the outdated maps, you can upgrade them FOR $70!!! That's 3/4 of the price of the unit! Disgust is probably the best word to describe my ... Read More Rating: - simple and to the pointnot a lot of "features" to get in the way. This is a great tool for any tool box. the loaded map is old so if you have new roads in your area you might need an update. its efficient. i use it every day doing service calls. up to 6 locations and over 1000 miles a week. the battery will last 6- 7 hrs of continuous use. |
Remember when those two satellites collided the other day? Seems that they'll be the space junk gift that keeps on giving, as their 800-km debris orbiting field could hamper all future space launches.
"Future launches will have to be adjusted with regard to the fact that the debris [from the collision] has spread over an 800-km area and will gather at a common orbit in 5-6 years," said Alexander Stepanov, director of the Pulkovo Observatory in St. Petersburg.
According to NASA this massive cloud of human failure joins the 19,000 other objects that currently pollute the low and high orbit space around the planet. As we reported last week, the Hubble Space Telescope is already in danger.
On a related note, anyone who criticized the Pixar movie Wall-E for "liberal bias" or for "unfairly" depicting future humans as slovenly creatures that polluted Earth and space to the point where it was uninhabitable is a dufus. And so ends my personal rant for the day. [Space Fellowship]
