 Great full-featured auto GPS November 3, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This nuvi 360 is a "discontinued" GPS unit, but has all of the good features. Garmin will, after registering online, allow a free download of the 2009 map version....making this a great bargain.
The wide screen GPS units are impressive, but I do not need the wide width to show roads way off to the left or right. I need to see where I am going........UP. The wider screen units seem to be rather useless to me.
I have used it in town and on some very remote National Forest Service 4X4 roads and have been amazed. The map has the roads numbered (the forest road number signs are sorely missing out in the National Forests).
Great little unit. Like all GPS units, it does not always "know" of the best or latest routes, but will get you there.

The Garmin nuvi 360 would be a good product except the speaker volume is extremely weak. The only way the speaker can be heard is stopped and no other noise nearby. This is with the speaker volume turned to maximum. Adding an external speaker does not help unless the external speaker is amplified.

The 360 is perfect for me. The Bluetooth capabilities make it nice and easy to make handsfree phone calls. Also love the option of plugging up the MP3 player to the vehicle's audio system. I thought the 3.5 screen would be too small but it's very easy to see. I would have liked to have had the arm that holds the GPS longer to be able to keep the GPS out of the sun. The sun can make it hard to view the screen and I think if the arm was longer I could have it lower to remedy that. For the price, it's a great buy.
Terrific Product November 2, 2008
I don't know what took me so long to buy a GPS. This is the most terrific device on the planet. (OK, a slight exageration.) I read a lot of reviews for the different brands and finally settled on a Garmin. And then I had to decide on which model! For me, the 3.5 screen is sufficiently large enough. It is easy to use, although I suspect it does a lot more than I realize, as I've only had it less than a month. Having this GPS is just like having a person sitting next to me reading a map and constantly giving me directions. For people like me, with no sense of direction, this is the most wonderful device imaginable. No more wrestling with maps, or trying to figure out which way is north or east, or how far it is to my destination. And you don't have to panic if you hit an unexpected roadblock or you take a wrong turn - because it instantly recalculates your route immediately!!! I love the feature that lets you find gas stations and restaurants nearby at whatever point you are in your travel. I have tried the GPS on several trips varying from 1 1/2 to 3 hours, in preparation to a longer trip in a few weeks. I am constantly amazed at how well it works, even though there were a few glitches. For instance, it directed me to take a left hand turn on a one-way street going the wrong way! I elected to keep going straight and my garmin instantly recalculated my route, and got me to my destination go. This model has a bluetooth feature which will come in handy when I upgrade my phone. One of my friends just bought a Garmin and as she travels for a living she would have liked the Garmin that responds to speech. Also, the Nuvi 360 will allow one programmable detour which works fine for my needs. Anyone who travels alot would probably appreciate the models that allow for multiple programmable stops. If you don't have one, buy a GPS! They are amazing!
 Garmin 360 November 2, 2008
Excellent and extremely portable device. I've used it several times on short and long trips and it works very well. The device is bright and easy to read, the speech to text is clear and precise. The bluetooth sync up with your wireless phone is a bit flaky out of the box, however it works flawlessly after you get the latest update from Garmin's website.
The POIs are extensive and I often use my Garmin to find restaurants on the weekends. All in all a great portable device I plan on using for a long time.
