Place hands-free calls with Bluetooth wireless technology
The 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.
In addition, easily look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or from your phone’s call history log. Don’t know the phone number for your destination? Simply find and dial it from the StreetPilot 2820’s extensive points of interest database — including hotels, restaurants, stores, and attractions.
Navigate with Ease
The StreetPilot 2820 comes ready to use out of the box with preloaded maps of Europe or North America. Simply enter a destination, and you’re automatically routed with turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names. A fingertip touch screen interface, remote control, and 2D or 3D map perspective combined with the ability to arrange destinations to minimize trip distance make navigation easy. It also accepts customized points of interest (POIs) such as school zones, safety cameras, and LPG filling stations and includes proximity alerts to warn of upcoming POIs.
Avoid Traffic Tie-ups
Monitor traffic tie-ups with the addition of an optional traffic receiver. In select metro areas, with the addition of the GTM™ 10 or GTM 12 FM TMC traffic sensors** or GXM 30™ XM smart antenna***, the SteetPilot 2820 notifies you of accidents, road construction, and weather-related traffic delays before they are encountered, and then offers an alternate route. Simply touch the screen icon to calculate a new route. In addition to valuable traffic information, the GXM 30 and subscription to XM NavTraffic also provide basic weather information such as current conditions, forecasts, and Severe Weather Alerts.
Enjoy MP3, Audio Book Player and optional XM Radio
The StreetPilot 2820’s MP3 player, audio book player and optional XM Radio keep you entertained on the road. The MP3 player allows you to browse music by artist, album, and/or song. Optional audio books may be purchased from audible.com which features over 70,000 hours of audio programs. A subscription to XM Radio along with the GXM 30 smart antenna provide over 150 plus channels of commercial-free music, sports, news, talk and entertainment programming.

Very happy with this new GPS!
Reviewed by Eric G. from Sausalito, CA on 07/26/2006 06:53 pm
I'm not an expert when it comes to these "portable" navigation systems but I did have a built-in navigation system in my previous Acura and I do have one in my Infiniti now. I bought this unit for my second car and for when I go somewhere on business or vacation. I've had it for 1 week now, and I've been happy thus far. Obviously a 3.8" screen is a lot smaller than what comes built in a car, but I find the map and data very readable on this unit. I wanted a unit that had the Bluetooth funtionality and I have to say that the Bluetooth works great! I could call or receive calls on it as well as calling any of the Point of Interest pre-loaded in the unit. My biggest issue is hiding the wire for the microphone and hiding the wire for the power to cigarette lighter, but that's a whole different story. The dash mount works for me. I did a bit of research as well and found that this would be the best unit for me and am happy with my decision.
