 a good purchase, 2008-09-05
This is one of the best things I have ever bought. I love it. It's very accurate. I love that it has bluetooth, I can call and receives call from the device. When I sync my phone with device it copied my phone book. The only thing about this (which is not a big deal) is that the semulated car never gets to the finish line. I like this GPS and it's better than the other one I have tried.
Great Navigator for a Cross Country Road Trip, 2008-09-05
Overall, very satisfied with this GPS and its features, well worth the relative price would have given 4.5 stars if available. I purchased this GPS just days before a roadtrip across the states. Using for more than 4200 miles along the trip I learned many of its uses and limitations. First though, setup is quite intuitive and easy to master, I spent just minutes configuring the setup without instructions. However, after registering online, I found that new firmware and software was available for my unit. I spent a few hours downloading everything to my computer and uploading it to the the unit. Garmin's customer support is great but you have to wait for long periods on hold. The database is huge and takes a computer with significant harddrive space (about 10GB) to load. The database still isn't perfect (few misnamed fuel stations and out of business restaurants) but it worked quite well throughout the trip. The popup antenna quickly acquires satellites no matter the location. The Sirf technology is very accurate and will calculate if you are off route in just seconds. It will always put you on the fastest or shortest route. However, it will not allow you calculate a scenic route. Overall it was a very comforting item to have at night or when driving to an area where we didn't have a detailed map. The Bluetooth feature is great, not only to answer calls but to call numbers in the database automatically. The speaker is a bit tinny but overall works well. I have not used the MP3 player or the Book Reader. I've tried other friends GPS navigators (Tom Tom One and Garmin 260) and just wasn't satisfied with the performance or the database features. This GPS navigator works very well and we are glad we got it.
 nuvi 360, 2008-09-04
This is a great product. The voice commands with street names is extremely helpful. Would recommend updating the maps right away. Highly recommend product and GARMIN company. GARMIN International technical support was great when I had trouble downloading on my 10 year old computer - they talked me through the process step by step.
Best in class!, 2008-09-03
Recently, I purchased a Garmin Nuvi 260 for my mother who is technologically challenged at best. She picked it right up and used it! I then started shopping for a GPS for myself. I knew that I wanted a Garmin, but I wanted bluetooth as well. I did some research and found the Nuvi 360 at the top of every list. How right the reviews are!!! I love mine... and get this...today I was talking via the bluetooth speaker to my dad and he said it sounded better than any headset and maybe better than the phone itself! The bluetooth is a very nice feature. I had no problems pairing it with my iPhone which I was worried about. The text-to-speech is great and the voice interface is very clear. All and all a great product for the money!
Great mobile GPS and Bluetooth system, 2008-09-03
I got a Garmin Nuvi 360 for my birthday from my husband. I needed a Bluetooth handsfree system for my car because of California Law. Instead of just getting the bluetooth, we looked at the Garmin to have both bluetooth and navigation.
Pros:
* easy to set up
* hooks up to my laptop PC and the internet, easy to upgrade map from the internet, but does take some time to download
* like the size of it, can keep in my purse
* like the directions and the maps
* gives voice directions
* touch screen interface
* Bluetooth - hooked up to my iPhone. When I first tried it, it kept on disconnecting repetitively for no reason. I finally went online and got an upgrade to the iPhone software and that fixed the problem! now it pairs and connects seamlessly as soon as the Nuvi is turned on.
* seems to have all the updated restaurants!
Cons:
* wish it had a QWERTY keyboard instead of alphabetical
* bluetooth speaker - I wish it can be a little louder because road noise drowns it out sometimes. On the other end, people say it has an echo quality.
* need to get another piece of hardware to use the traffic updates feature
