 Garmin Nuvi 350 July 15, 2008
The Garmin Nuvi 350 is an excellent GPS for the money. I was origanally looking at the Nuvi 200, but for only 40 dollars more the 350 was well worth it. I won't bore you with what was good as I could go on and on with the that, however I would like to tell you a negative:
When you try and avoid highways, you can not chose between Interstates and state highways. I was testing it and it wanted to take me out of the way through a neighborhood to avoid the state road I was on. I wish there was an option to avoid just interstates.
That is my only complaint with the gps, any other issues are minor and to be expected.
If you are looking for an inexpensive GPS for basic needs with a little extra the Nuvi 350 is it.
Superb GPS July 15, 2008

The Garmin Nuvi 350 is my third GPS, and it is by far the best unit I have used. As an avid GPS user, I cannot express enough praise for this unit. With its large touch screen, complete U.S. street maps, built-in MP3 player, JPEG viewer, voice output navigation, this is one sweet unit. I hooked is up out of the box, and it worked perfectly for me in just minutes. (To discover all its features, however, I admit that I did have to scan through the paper manual, and then I read the .pdf manual that was included with the unit.)
This is an extremely simple unit to use, and it is very intuitive. At first, I thought I would not like its limited set of screens and menus, but with use, I have come to appreciate how Garmin simply removed the clutter that multiple options gave me on previous units.
Most shocking is how inexpensive and yet powerful this unit is. My last Garmin was a Quest (with color screen) for which I paid about $500 in 2006. This Nuvi is much faster, has a bigger screen, and provides far more capabilities than my previous unit. For me, this is a quantum leap forward in technology in just a 2-year period of time.
I really appreciate the fact that it takes an SD card. I bought a 2GB card and have loaded almost 30 CDs of music, and there is still room to spare. I just plug the output of the Nuvi into my car stereo (via a cassette adapter), and I no longer have to carry a bunch of CDs with me any more.
Some things this unit does not provide include track logs, routes, and a few other odds and ends, which I thought I would miss. But within a very short time, I realized I did not need those things to navigate with ease.
Thank you, Garmin, for making such a compact, intuitive, and feature-packed unit. The Nuvi 350 is a real winner for both novice and experienced GPS users.
wonderful GPS July 15, 2008
My husband loves his Nuvi.. we gave it to him on Father's day and he has thoroughly enjoyed it. He reports he has found faster ways to get places that he didn't even know existed. No more MapQuest for us!!!!
Garmin Nuvi 350 is easy to use July 15, 2008
This is a lot of GPS for the money. Easy and flexible to use. Only beef is that directions that came with the GPS were minimal- you are supposed to download or view online a more complete manual. For the price, Garmin could have included a more complete users guide. Also, don't forget to update software periodically through USB connection.
GPS upgrade July 15, 2008
Upgraded the old GPS (Garmin 320) after 3 years. The Nuvi350 is everything we wanted. New '08 maps, spoken street names, small enough to go in my pocket. Added bonus, it has a feature that allows you to save points by using the long/lat instead of an address. Now I know where my retirement land in NM is! Great unit. Garmin is the best company to deal with.
