This was my first automotive GPS and it does a good job. It easily follows the signal and with WAAS it knows exactly where you are. Street names are easy to read even on the 3.5 " screen. Drawbacks: Does not always find the best route (Ignored a one-way street and had me go around the block and return from the other direction.) (RTE 5 and RTE 91 merge together and then separate and it had me continuing on RTE 5 when I was in fact on Route 91) That said, many GPS's have th same quirks. Typing in addresses is easy but finding a particular POI in its database takes considerable time to search. Pros: Good verbal directions and easy to use. It has taught me more street names by calling out their names then I ever knew. If you miss your turn it immediately provides new directions to get you back on track. Tells you your expected arrival time which is adjusted for your speed. I see they make wider screens on some--don't think I need that--works just fine. I may buy another for the other car.

This is a very helpful little machine. I am still learning all of the aids it provides. It is very easy to carry with you and will be great for sightseeing this summer in Salt Lake City.

I received (2) defective Garmin 350's. The first unit was totally hosed! The second unit went belly-up after 6 hours of use. Garmin informed me thet second unit was a reconditioned model, Amazon stated it was new. Amazon paid for the shipping of both units back and gave me a full refund, however I am now without a GPS!

This is a cool device. However, it is not 100% up to date. In Atlanta, it had us turning into a block under construction. And in Orlando, it gave us exact directions to a restaurant which wasn't there. But all in all, it is very helpful, and fairly intuitive to use. We joked, however, that there should be a "French taunter" voice option.
