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.

 Rating:  - LOVE IT!Let me begin by saying this is my 3rd GPS. I have owned the Garmin C530 and the C580. Both were stolen. I loved them as well, so as you can see, you are not going to find a complaint out of me! The selling feature for me on this unit was the size! It's slim and it fits into my purse! I REFUSE to allow another GPS unit to be stolen out of my car. Quick and easy to use right out of the box. 2 minutes from start to finish! Having just moved here, I am totally lost without a GPS. I can't turn left at the corn field. I need a bit more information than ... Read More Rating:  - Great Value OverallOverall a great unit for the price. We've used it to find many places to and from vacation with relative ease. Not sure how other GPS systems work, but this unit typically took 5+ minutes on occasion to locate the nearest satellite upon powering up and waiting to get on the road. A minor inconvenience when you're sitting in your vehicle waiting to get back on the road. Also, when we changed the voice options, we noticed that some voices would text-to-speech the street names while other voices would not. It would have been nice to know which voices used text-to-speech before-hand. Rating: - Garmin NUVI 350This unit orginally sold at close to $1000. At $200 it is a bargain. If you require a basic GPS this is the best on the market with Text to Speech Directions, and NavTeq maps. I found out that you do not need a larger GPS since when you drive you listen to the directions rather than look at the screen. Not only that, it comes with all the accessories that Garmin charges extra for on their other and newer units. I understand that Garmin may discontinue it soon, so grab it while it is available. Rating:  - Garmin GPS Nuvi 350The screen could be bigger and the directions to how to use the GPS is very limited. The mount for the car is diffult to use and many times it takes very long time to track your current position? Rating: - Just rightExcellent device. Does exactly what it claims. The bluetooth interface works far better than the speaker on my cell, so I found that very handy on trips. Browse for similar items by category:
