Steals and Deals
We also continue to see some rock bottom bargains on the Mio C310x and the Via Michelin X-930. On the C310x, reader Joe left this comment: "I got the Mio C310x from Staples and had them price match Circuit City's website ($199). The other cool thing to do is look on eBay for the coupons; I found one that had $30 off any purchase $150 or over. So my total price came out to $169 plus tax and free shipping." - wow.
Fry's is STILL selling the Mio C310x systems: $198 with free shipping. - Check out my review of the Mio C310x.

Garmin Forerunner Rebate - $50 back on a Forerunner 205 or 305, which drops the prices down significantly.

Other GPS's. Here’s a quick rundown:
Garmin Nuvi 660 - Price hovering around $730 or so at Amazon, Very dynamic. See our review - Also check out the GPSNow site for what has been often a lower price, and Order by 5PM weekdays, you get same day cheap shipping. TheNerds has the Nuvi 660 for $701 - Use coupon code: affgoo3 for another $10 off if you use Google Checkout.
Another place to check tht was sent in this week by a reader is GPSonSale.com for the Nuvi 660.
TomTom ONE for around $367 at Amazon with Free shipping. See my Review of the TomTom ONE.
The TomTom 910 has come down A LOT in the last few months, but has inched up a bit in the last week and is about $523 for this widescreened unit. Great if you have a Bluetooth phone and can use the TomTom PLUS system for weather, traffic (with subscription) and more.
Garmin StreetPilot C330 – Now below $320 for this very capable, maps pre-loaded device.
Garmin StreetPilot C340 – Think about moving up to the Garmin StreetPilot C530 whose price is down to $397. Won't speak street names, but Better chipset, and better screen for almost the same price ($10 more).
