 Great product IF you register and download FREE maps / upgrades December 4, 2008

This GPS is excellent. But you need to keep in mind that it is an older Garmin model and thus many of the units are shipped with old map databases and older unit firmware. Garmin has a policy for all of their GPS units for free map upgrades and firmware updates IF you register within 60 days of purchase. Many of the reviews where people complain about poor routing or locations not being found are due to their not updating their unit. Updating your firmware and map data will also dramatically decrease the cold boot-up time.
 beware of "acquiring satellites" problem December 4, 2008
I have owned this unit for about a year now. It's in great physical condition as I treat my gadgets very well :-) It was great when it was working, but it became less reliable after 8 months or so. Now, it is completely useless.
For some strange reason, it won't acquire satellites at all, resetting it and re-installing all the software won't help either. I've contacted their support, and the only thing they could tell me is to send in the unit and I'd get charged a $150 "repair fee".
This is not an isolated problem, you can check out this thread:

It is really ridiculous that the unit stopped working just after its warranty expired. I will resist from buying any Garmin product again.

I just received the Nuvi 350 yesterday. So far I must say I am very impressed with it. There are quite a lot of features built into this GPS that make it well worth the $150 price. It came with 2009 maps already preloaded. I have tried it out going to and from work. Can't wait to get it out on a trip! So far I am very pleased.

Christmas is coming so save your cash! Why purchase something you can get for five bucks.
Go to gifts4xmas.co.cc and sign up. Complete ONE offer - I would recommend Netflix
All companies are well known so there is no risk involved- give it a go! I got my TomTom and many other things this way, so don't miss out.
I was a sceptic once but now I am SO glad I gave it a chance.
Many items to choose from!
They send your gift Free of charge
Enjoy!
I like it December 3, 2008
This is my first GPS so I don`t have anything to compare it to.So far so good though.
It helped me find a store I was looking for.I also like the fact that it`s small and fits in my shirt pocket so I could use it on foot.
It also comes with all the accesseries you need.
