With a total weight of 5.1 ounces and slim measurements of 3.87 x 2.91 x 0.87 inches (WxHxD), the nüvi 350 is just right for the pocket or purse. A bright, 64,000-color display dominates the front of the device and a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels means that there's plenty of room for displaying map data and other elements of the device's interface. An SD memory card slot is provided for expansion software, such as a points of interest database, media files and electronic guides (see below). The flip-up antenna includes an MCX-type connector for connecting the unit to an external GPS antenna. Meanwhile, a powerful built-in speaker resides on the back of device. A built-in lithium ion battery will give you for to eight hours of battery life, depending on use. In addition to an AC charger, the unit also ships with a 12-volt power adapter for vehicle charging, as well as a windshield suction cup mount. Fortunately, Garmin has made it easy to interface with the nüvi 350's 700 megabytes of onboard memory, thanks to "plug-and-play" USB mass storage support. Just plug the device into your computer's USB port and you've got instantaneous access to all the audio books, music, photos, supplemental maps and other data on the nüvi 350's internal and SD card memory. Navigation The nüvi 350 is first and foremost a personal GPS device. Wherever you go -- in your car or on foot-- the device offers extremely accurate position data, thanks to a high-sensitivity integrated GPS receiver by SiRF and WAAS-enabled, 12-satellite reception. Combined with detailed maps of the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico the nüvi 350 provides automatic routing, turn-by-turn voice directions, and touchscreen control-- making it easy to find your way anywhere. Plus, the unique "text-to-speech" feature calls out turns by street name, and you can choose from either 2D or 3D mapping perspectives when you're viewing your route on the display. Additionally, the nüvi 350 is compatible with Garmin's GTM 10 FM TMC traffic receiver*, which allows users to avoid traffic tie-ups by simply pushing a button that will calculate a new route. As mentioned, the nüvi 350 comes packed with mapping data for North America, but you can can also load up your custom points of interest. Set up proximity alerts for school zones, safety cameras, and more using Garmin's free POI (points of interest) loader program (available from garmin.com). Important note about map updates: Due to our high volume of sales, almost every Garmin portable GPS navigator sold by Amazon.com will come with the most recent map version. If you ever do need a map update, you can purchase one from Amazon.com at our Garmin Store.
Navigation is just part of the journey, and the nüvi 350 is one of the first devices to recognize that. The built-in "Travel Kit" offers an MP3 player, an audio book player from Audible.com, a jpeg-format picture viewer, a world travel clock with time zones, a currency converter, a measurement converter, and a calculator. In addition to the included travel tools, additional software add-ons are available, such as the Garmin Language Guide, with data provided by Oxford University Press. This software suite contains a multilingual word bank, phrase bank, and five bilingual dictionaries. The multilingual word bank and phrase bank supports nine languages and dialects, including American English, British English, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, European Portuguese, European Spanish, and Latin American Spanish. Now you can look up and translate more than 17,000 words or 20,000 phrases per language -- right in the palm of your hand. Through the unit's text-to-speech interface, users can get a spoken pronunciation of each entry in the word bank, along with gender and part of speech information. Another useful add-on software package, the Garmin Travel Guide, is loaded with information provided by Marco Polo. These guides put in-depth travel information such as reviews and recommendations for restaurants, tourist attractions, and more at your fingertips. The software allows you to navigate to an address or search points of interest-- places like hotels, restaurants, shopping, and tourist attractions. The nüvi 350 automatically calculates the fastest route and provides voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions along the way. The unit also audibly announces the name of upcoming streets-- letting you keep your eyes on the road while navigating through busy traffic and tricky roadways. And if you stray off course, the nüvi 350 automatically calculates the quickest way to get back on track. *Traffic services available only in select cities where RDS-TMC coverage exists. Requires the GTM 10 FM TMC traffic receiver and subscription fee to enable traffic capability.

Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Excellent GPS for Point to Point navigation This is now a discontinued Garmin model. This means that they aren't being manufactured any longer, but Garmin will continue to provide support for this unit and a full mfg. warranty. Aside from the excellent reviews on this item, I have a couple things to add: This unit from Amazon.com now ships with 2009 map information, so save your money and DO NOT order an updated map package with it. It also ships with a leatherette protector, which is OK for use to ... Read More Rating: - No more getting lostLife saver. Took me a year to try it out after getting it for a gift. Now never go on extended trip without it. Just got back from Orange County,Ca & could never have found places without it. Very easy to use ... absolutely no complaints. Rating:  - He loves it!Got this for my fiancee for his birthday. He's good with directions but loves that he can find locations (i.e. American Legions) within a certain distance. Have not had experience with many other GPS products but this one did not disappoint and was rated high by Consumer Reports. I'd buy it again. Rating: - What a neat thing to have!I couldn't be more happy with my purchase of the NUVI. It's a great size, and it's helped me tremendously. I work in sometimes extremely remote areas, and the NUVI gets me back to the places I need to go. Without it, I wouldn't have a prayer. Absolutely love this product!! I also bought the bean-bag base, and I love that as well. Much better for me since I like to use the NUVI in different vehicles, and I don't want suction cup marks all over the windshields (easy tip off to thieves that there's ... Read More Rating:  - OK GPS, but very slowI have had this product for over a year now. Several issues with it.. When you first turn it on, it takes about 3-4 minutes to pick up a signal. If you are trying to start your trip, that is a long time of waiting for it to boot up. It is also 70-80% accurate, so you are not sure to get to your final destination. I do like the touch screen. The battery charge after one year lasts only about 1/2 hour, very short considering they claim it is to last 4-4.5 hours when I bought it. For the current price, it ...
