Default Re: Which navigation? Garmin or tomtom?

I have the Nuvi 360 and love it. Big enuff to see clearly in the car but small enough to fit in a shirt pocket as well. Lots of extra features, from a tip calculator to a language translator (touch the phrase and it speaks in target language - only a demo included with the unit). Operational time on rechargeable batts is over 5 hours if you don't want the cable hanging.

VERY accurate, we did a 1K mile road trip, it saved our tail on a detour twice AND using the Fodor's guide found a few good restaurants.


I got mine for under $600 on Amazon and then picked up the Fodors guide and a better case, total outlay, less than $700.

<added note - the difference between the 350 and 360 is that the 360 has a bluetooth dial/speakerphone interface. With the TCH I didn't need that feature but I travel for business so thought it would be nice to have in rentals.>
