The Garmin Nuvi 350 Personal Travel Assistant is a steal at under four hundred dollars. The item arrives equipped with maps of the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and Mexico. As an extra advantage, the Nuvi 350 has a very clear way of speaking, giving you simple instructions as you make your way to the destination.

What You Get

When you get the Garmin Nuvi 350, you even receive a nicely styled product which is diminutive enough to take along with you either on foot or in the car. The product will be equipped with easily-removed suction cups to allow it to be attached to a surface in your car.

You can charge your Garmin Nuvi 350 through plugging it into either a cigarette lighter adaptor or a regular plug-in adaptor at home. Both adaptors will be shipped with the package when you get the system. You will also receive a user's manual to help you understand and use the features of the Nuvi 350.

Features

The Garmin Nuvi 350 Personal Travel Assistant has several options that make it a good choice for anyone. The item itself is designed to remain where you put it even when the car goes over rugged roads; it manages this thanks to a ball-and-socket system. The navigator also will arrive with an MP3 player so you can enjoy music even during hikes with your Nuvi 350.

The maps can also be updated, although there is a small fee whenever you want to update your maps. Extra maps are up for grabs only a few times a year and you just have to update your personal Nuvi 350 when you feel it is the right time.

Travel Kit

The travel kit that will already be on the Garmin Nuvi 350 Personal Travel Assistant is a neat bonus. You can may utilize the Travel Kit to keep track of your photos and MP3 songs, and to access any of your additional travel guides. These travel guides can be purchased for a great number of overseas countries and can be used when you are taking a vacation. Most of the guides will run you less than eighty dollars, but the fees could vary depending on which travel guide you decide to purchase.

Additional Features

The Garmin Nuvi 350 Travel Assistant also includes a couple of add-on features, such as instant traffic information for cities and an enormous amount of data on the most popular spots in the cities to which you travel. The traffic updater does mean the purchase of additional software, but it is a great time-saver when you need to avoid the five o'clock rush.

The Garmin Nuvi 350 also offers street names when giving you directions, rather than using feet or miles. This can help you know where you are driving even if you are traveling through a new city. You can work out your routes, shift your routes, and add overnight stops to your route with ease thanks to a touch screen.
