My first foray in the use of the GPS and it is doing a marvelous job. there are a few hiccups in using this product. one is the maps are not up to date. another is it shows my home 2 blocks away from where its located. (just a note Google maps do the same thing) one other thing is that it does not guide you using the most logical route. That being said I can say that it has got me to the proper location every time I've used it. I got it for work as a general contractor and Savannah has so many small named streets that I would spend too much time trying to find them, but the garmin gets me where I need to be with a minimum of fuss. I also love the blue tooth hands free phone. It is a great convenience. I have not used the MP3 function since my car has this function built in. All this being said I would recommend this unit for anyone needing a GPS. It has enough bells and whistles to make most anyone happy.
Great Navigator - Bluetooth Not so much July 24, 2007

The navigation portion of the device, which is really what matters, is dead on. Very accurate, nice features, and it finds the places you are looking for. However, like most GPS systems if you know the area you can pick a better route but in many cases it picks the route I would have picked. If you are lost you can trust it to get you there though.
The downsides?
The volume is controlled through the screen. An external control would be nice.
The Bluetooth phone connection needs work. While it works as advertised, you can tell you are on a bluetooth connection. The volume is also not consistent with the navigation's volume. If you have the volume for the GPS set at say 7/10, it is just about right but when a call comes in, hold on to the wheel and try not to wreck because it will be LOUD.
In the end, I'd buy it again.

This was the first GPS system i purchsed, however my dad also has a garmin, but he has a streetpilot. His was more money (he purchased it through garmin direct) but mine has more features and is smaller and more lightweight.
I love the Garmin Nuvi 360. I can take it anywhere, its so small and compact. Sometimes it has a hard time finding the satellite, so I find shutting it off and turning it back on helps a lot. If it takes a long time to find your wishful destination, try typing it in a different way. I tried to find a local school, so i typed in the name of it. It could not find it, but when i used the search by tool, i searched by schools (or something like that) and it was able to find the destination i was looking for.
sometimes it takes me a longer way to my destination than it needs to, like getting off an exit to get to my house, it tells me to turn left when i normally go straight. i would ignore it, and it recalculates with no problems. but i did once follow the way it told me to, and now it never tells me to turn left. i think it figured out by me taking the route it suggested that it was not the fasted route.
i think this is a perfect buy for someone who is looking for an inexpensive but reliable device.
Garmin Nuvi 360 Pocket GPS Navigator July 23, 2007
I love it and don't know how I got along with out before. It is easy to use and so far there has only been one street I couldn't get it to find. In Charleston, SC it did give me a number of restaurants that were out of business, so I have learned to call them first. As far as directions it is awesome. I want to do some up grading such as traffic control to re-route for accidents and rush hour. This was a great investment. I highly recommend this product.
 Great item except bluetooth doesn't function well. July 23, 2007

If I could do it over I would buy Nuvi350 w/o blue tooth option. This would save ~$100. It's not worth paying extra when this feature is not great quality. There's echo and noise in calls.
