My new favorite toy Tech Level: high

Pros: Lots of PROS! This unit is great at everything it does. GPS is very accurate and maps are up to date. Bluetooth works perfectly with my Treo 650. Includes more features than I need but I admit they are cool to have. I thoroughly tested all it's functions, and I have to admit they are well designed and very intuitive. Even though I've only had a few days to...

100% (17 of 17) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Almost perfect - a marriage saver - 4? stars! This is definately a wonderful tool, functionally complete with only a few trivial improvements to make it absolutely PERFECT. For reference I will compare it to the TomTom One with Bluetooth, which has almost exactly the same dimensions and feature set. I used the Tomtom One for a week until it failed to distinguish between 3 oblique right turns.
Notable differences include
1. Garmin Nuvi 360 announces streets by NAME, so that when looking at a funny intersection with two ob...

100% (14 of 14) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Nuvi 360 Excellent Performer I'm one of the earliest baby boomers and not so familiar with all the modern electronics so when I decided to take a chance and rely solely on the written reviews and ordered the nuvi 360 I was hoping it was all that they said. I am not at all dissapointed!!! It works wonderfully. But the best part is that you don't have to be a genius to operate it. It's simple and so easy "a caveman can do it." The holder that attaches to the windshield is strong and secure, the screen is large eno...

100% (10 of 10) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | A killer app on the level of TiVo We purchased this device after my wife had gotten lost while using Yahoo! Maps on a business trip late at night. We have since used the our Nuvi several times (although not as much as most people, since we live in NYC and don't drive much).
Most recently, we used our Nuvi to go on a long weekend to the Hudson Valley. Had we not had a GPS device, we would have had to print a dozen or more maps from Yahoo! - to the Inn, from the Inn to Dinner, back to the Inn, Inn to the winery ...

100% (10 of 10) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Too few options The Nuvi 360 was another milepost on my journey to find a GPS unit with all the features I want. In the end I took it back, because it gives too few options, expecially when editing the routes it creates.
The 360 was a very zippy unit, grabbing satellite aquisition fairly fast and calculated routes quickly. The redraw on the map while scrolling is pretty slow, however. In all, I was pretty happy with the response of the unit.
The problem comes after you've created yo...

100% (10 of 10) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Amazing Product and You CAN use the MP3 Player This product is great. I'm not going to waste your time rehashing what others have already said. The GPS works well and you should buy this product primarily for this reason.
However, many have asked why the need for an MP3 player. I agree that playing the MP3 player through the peakers of the NUVI is a stupid idea. But, If you have the NUVI hooked into your car speakers IT WORKS GREAT.
How do you do that? Well, I went to radio shack and bought a cable that has RCA on o...

Pros: The only thing better than the NUVI is buying a new car with built-in GPS/bluetooth. I was mostly concerned with the navigation on this system and didn't really consider the extras in making my decision. But now that i have them, they sure are nice. I like being able to run my MP3s thru my car cassette adapter and then having it pause when "Australian ...

92% (13 of 14) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | NUVI 360 *** VS. *** NUVI 350 (The Bluetooth Review) I bought my brother the Nuvi 350 for his trip down to North Carolina. He's moving there and doesn't know the area. I was curious about the bluetooth on the Nuvi 360, so I purchased this one for myself.
HERE IS THE DEAL WITH THE BLUETOOTH: First, You can get the Nuvi 360 cheaper on buydig.com, but their return policy is more stringent than Amazon. Second, THE BLUETOOTH IS INVALUABLE, PROVIDED YOU HAVE THE RIGHT PHONE. I have a motorola RIZR Z3 and my Nuvi is COMPLETE...

92% (12 of 13) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | A really great purchase! This has to be one of the most satisfying purchases I've made in a long time. This unit functions so intuitively that the manual is rarely needed. I've had it for about 1 month and I LIKE it! I purchased an 8 GB SD card and loaded it with 6 GB of MP3 music. I plug a cassette adapter into the side of the unit to play thru my car's stereo...it sounds great. The voice guidance for the GPS is so good that the display is almost not needed! The bluetooth function paired with my cellphone and wor...

90% (9 of 10) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Go With Garmin There are LOTS of different considerations to make when choosing a GPS, and they can radically alter the cost. Screen size, included maps, expansion slots, touch screen, battery life, bluetooth support, etc. Touch screen is mandatory, and most all new units have this. That said, I am here to tell you what the most important factor, aside from touch screen, is - software. It's all about the software more than even the size of the screen. That's why it's gotta be Garmin.
