recently i purchased Garmin nuvi360 GPS with blue-tooth and text to speach facility and it works great.I was looking for a GPS which comes in the price range of $180 to $250 with text to speach lane by lane direction and blue-tooth and even it has MP3 player as well.
So i strongly recommend people to go for it if they want a GPS within medium price and great features.

This product was worth every penny. Great deal and I love the product.
Only thing that this product could improve is in the area of picking up satellites faster when you start up the system. Other than that, this is a MUST BUY!

We are low-to-medium users of GPS and wanted a basic device which was user-friendly and robust (at the cost of advanced options like multi-point routing etc).

I bought the nuvi primarily for three things : a) longer battery life compared to the tomtom, b) its text-to-speech and c) bluetooth connectivity.


I have been very satisfied with the first two, especially the text-to-speech. Driving around in downtown, we have found calling out streetnames (rather than take 'next' turn etc.) to be extremely useful since I never have to look at the screen.

Often since we share two cars, we forget to take the charging cable from one of the cars but the long battery life (6 hours) has been a life saver in this regard.

The bluetooth connectivity has been a bit flaky but that is primarily due to the Palm Centro which seems to have an incredibly bad Bluetooth stack which freezes the phone often. However, when it does connect, it works like a charm and the voice etc. are very clear.

All in all, very satisfied with this product.

It is good and accurate and price that no one can beat. I recommand to everyone.

OK, so I live in Alaska, and I'm not used to traffic or lots of highways. The NUVI saved time, headaches and gasoline! Wow...it is great and I'm going to order another one for my other car. I have a Prius with full navigation; yeh, right....Toyota claims that they do not have the software for Alaska yet, so after spending $600 on the upgrade NAV package, I had to buy a Garmin. If you don't have some sort of GPS and you travel, these days, you are a fool not to have one. GREAT, GREAT, GREAT! Very easy to operate...I never read the book on it, as it is very user friendly. Highly recommend.
