Right now I am thinking of buying the map set that shows all the speed and light cameras. THAT should come in really handy. Forget using the bluetooth with your phone though. The speaker is crap and no one can hear you clearly. Everything else is A #1. I had the best Mexican food I have ever had in Tucumcari, NM thanks to my Garmin!

I've got the Nuvi 350 too and love it. Being new to the US it has saved me many times, especially in LA!

I recently bought a Garmin Nuvi 350 to replace my old 2620. The Nuvi is much better than the old StreetPilot 2620. Prices are dropping fast, so check around.

I have been using a 2620 ever since it first was offered. I have done 3 week driving vacations without taking a single map along!

What makes the NUVI better?
