Question

What's the difference between a Garmin streetpilot and Garmin Nuvi?

Answer 1

The Streetpilot is intended solely for in-car use, while the Nuvi can be used as a portable hand-held unit. The Nuvi has extra features for tourists and can be used by pedestrians.

The Streetpilot installs more cleanly into a car, with only one wire for both power and traffic receiver. The Nuvi has two wires, one for power and one for the traffic receiver antenna.

Aside from that, they use the same maps and very similar software.
