I don't get to use my Nuvi 350 much, but recently I did on a trip to the Bay Area. After I entered the address of my destination, it asked if I wanted to simulate the route. What is that about, and should I have said yes or no? I don't recall exactly, but I think I said no, and it froze on me. I then shut it off and restarted, and I don't think I got that message again.

Have been tempted by all the Best Buy ads to upgrade to a newer and better Nuvi (even though I don't really need one!  ). Can anyone comment on the usefulness of the following features: 4.3" vs. 3.5" screen (a friend of mine says the bigger screen makes no difference since you're perpetually only interested in limited scope of view anyway. ie. the road and intersection coming up, and the bigger screen is not going to give you more pertinent details); Bluetooth; Lane Assist; 3-D view; FM (don't most cars have FM already?!; Traffic (the consensus seems to be this is not useful) Any advice would be much appreciated.

The Garmin Nuvi 760 is now for sale on Amazon for $200.It`s a very good system.I was able to drive on newly constructed roads. Have any of u folks used the 760?Is it adequate or are there better models around? Your opinion?Thanks. |

Replying to: bodble2 (May 31, 2009 5:19 pm) I guess with the antennae down it's off on those models. My Nuvi 200 series units don't have that extendable antennae. The refurbished model I had froze, but that's why I returned it. Hopefully that doesn't keep happening to yours. You may want to do all the updates from the MyGarmin site, they have some bug fixes incorporated. |
