 GPS with Cool Features June 29, 2008
In-built blue tooth works very good. GPS is pretty accurate, used it to drive from NJ to Atlanta, GA, did not hiccup once. Announces street names and the charge holds pretty good. The only con i found is the the connector that charges GPS is bit awkward, you would need to remove the GPS from the windshield before you can connect. Overall i am happy with the purchase.
 Invaluable traveling companion June 29, 2008
The Garmin Nuvi 360 was invaluable to us when we traveled to Canada, especially with the French street names in Montreal and Quebec City. User friendly, just play around with it to learn its features. BE sure Jill talks to you and tells you the street names (not just "turn left"). This feature is not on the less expensive models and definitely worth the extra money for the Nuvi 360. We bought it new on Amazon and the box included all the accessories - dashmount, UBS cable, car charger, wall outlet charger. The description didn't identify anything as included, so we ordered the car charger; had to return it and pay postage to do so! But the product is terrific.
 one of the best Garmin products, BUT June 29, 2008

i gave the Garmin Nuvi 360 2 stars to capture your attention, i think this gadget deserves above 5 stars. its great and reliable and maps are rich with info. only 2 problems. if you have big hands and fingers then don't buy this item cuz the screen is small and you will end up zooming in and out just to make sure you save locations right. The other thing is, most devices when specifying "support SD" thy sometimes support MMC cards too, but not the garmin.
other than that GOOO FOR IT! its fantastic
Easy to use and practical June 28, 2008
We visited someone's house on a hill in the night for the first time. It could be hard to get there and return. It was hard to see anything in the dark. Totally depended on the GPS unit, the trip was an easy one.
 Not as Good as the StreetPilot June 28, 2008

Let me start off by saying I bought this after a Bad experience with the TomTom 720 (That review floats around here elsewhere) I own a Street Pilot C330 Garmin which has been Great and in fact I just recently upgraded the maps for it.
I bought this to upgrade from the C330 for work. My job requires travelling throughout the State, So a GPS is almost a necessity or at least it beats reading maps.
I wanted this mainly for the Bluetooth phone connection. Personally I'm the type that doesn't need all the bells & whistles they attach to these things these days. I don't need or want an MP3 player, A Currency convertor or a Dictionary etc..Just a GPS that gets me where I'm going, But I have to say the Bluetooth appealed to me.
So after my Bad experience with the TomTom, I went back to Garmin.
What I like:
It's Small and Garmin has stayed with the same type mounting bracket as the street pilot series, The power is feed to the bracket and then into the GPS - This allows your bracket to always stay mounted as you dismount the GPS to take inside the house or hide in the car to prevent theft.
The Garmin GPS's in general are very easy to use and get around in the various menus, In the Fact I think compared to the TomTom, Garmin has them beat when it couples to navigating around in your navigation device. In Short, They are very easy to get up and running right out of the box.
What I don't like:
The Speaker is mounted in the back of the unit, So it basically talks to your windshield, On the C330 Street pilot, it has 2 speakers mounted on the side of the unit and is much louder. I'm the type that likes to listen to the radio when I drive and I'm here to tell you, With this unit, it's one or the other. The C330 allows both. So in other words what I'm saying is, You better enjoy just You and the Nuvi GPS as you drive cause you won't be able to hear the directions with any other distractions present. And that's with the volume at max.
The Volume control is menu driven whereas on the C330 it is a knob mounted on the side to give instant access. Trust me this comes in handy when someone calls on the cell phone. It's not hard to access the volume control on the Nuvi, just not as convenient as the C330. Garmin StreetPilot c330 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Factory-Refurbished)
Too many other apps included. It's not that big of a deal, It just aggravates me. Like a Cell Phone, I just want a Phone that I can store Numbers and Make Calls. I don't need Cameras, Text Msg etc..Guess at 44 I'm Old School.
As a Side Note, I've never bothered to use the Bluetooth, a Friend has a C550 Garmin that has Bluetooth and it doesn't sound good, Plus some other posts here say the same. So my original intent was null and void. Some day I'll try it and see how well it works, If it's worthwhile I'll update the post.
