Top flight [Posted on 2008-07-24] This is all anyone could ask for in a GPS. I bought it because my daughter bought one, demonstrated it to me and recommended it highly. I'm truly happy with it.
Nuvi 360 is Simple to Use [Posted on 2008-07-24] This is my first GPS. After a decent amount of research, I found Garmin received high marks from most people and magazines. This unit is compact (being a Nuvi) and extremely user friendly. I have elderly relatives in the market for a GPS, and am perfectly comfortable in recommending the Garmin Nuvi 360 to them.
If I have any complaint, it's that I was "sure" the 360 spoke street names, which turns out not to be the case. Otherwise, this unit is pretty darned accurate, has a vivid display, easy-to-understand vocab, and seems to be all my family needs in a portable GPS.
Excellent GPS device [Posted on 2008-07-24] I bought this for a Father's Day gift but managed to play around with it some before I gave it away. If you're looking for a reasonably inexpensive NUVI, this is a great buy. You see why Garmin is pretty much regarded as the best in the biz! My only complaint was that I could never get the Bluetooth to stay in sync with either my RAZR phone or my dad's Blackberry. Each time one of the devices was turned off, you'd have to go through the whole process of re-syncing the NUVI with the phone. So basically I paid about 25-bucks extra for a feature (vs. the Nuvi 350) that might not ever be used....because my dad is not tech-savvy enough to do that over and over again. It could be we weren't doing something quite right and troubleshooting the issue could have solved it. But I was hoping it would just work, which was not the case.
All the other features are great....so I might just be buying the Nuvi 350 for myself, and then stick with an earpiece bluetooth device, which you can pick up pretty inexpensively now.
Garmin nuvi 360 [Posted on 2008-07-25] The Garmin nuvi 360 is a great product, it calls out aproaching street names,which is what I wanted. The screen is a little small but is clear and fits my needs,you really can't watch screen while driving,so its not a big deal. For the money it,s ok.
Garmin 360 Nuvi [Posted on 2008-07-25] Always wanted a Garmin since giving my daughter one for Christmas one year. I selected the Nuvi 360 because of price and the fact that not all Garmins speak actual street names. The Nuvi 360 does speak street names. We used it recently on a trip to Philadelphia and New Jersey. Although I don't know how to use all the features yet, the unit performed well. My main complaint is that you can't plug in just a name like "New Jersey Turnpike" and let it take you there. The thing needs an actual address. Although if you get "near" the turnpike and turn it on and plug in your desired address, the unit will recalculate and take you there accurately. I also wish that Garmin would create a feature that where you could just touch the screen and it will give you bearing on where you are at that moment. Sometimes you just want to yell "speak to me!". All in all I really like the Nuvi 360.
