I hate this GPS unit
Pros: Many POI, bluetooth works great
Cons: Super slow finding satellites. running on battery and need to hook the charger up? It will reboot the GPS not too handy when needing direction especially considering the slow hook-up time.

Works as advertised. Cost to get current maps $129.95!!
Pros: It seems to be a fine unit with quite a few features for the price. I bought it because it has both US and European maps built in.
Cons: When I went to register with Garmin I was told that there were new maps for both US and Europe, but that they would only give me one of the newer maps. The other would cost $129.95. It seems that the 370 should COME WITH the MOST UP-TO-DATE maps.

poorly made

Spectacular Design and Excellent Performance
Pros: Design, Features, Performance, Bluetooth and Traffic
Cons: Volume could be louder, multi-destination routing would be great
My only negatives are:
-The volume on its loudest setting still can get drowned out by my stereo;
-You can only add one waypoint to any given trip, rather than several (ideal for real estate agents or travelers like myself);
-Having to hide it after I get somewhere (though it's so small that's really not such a big deal-just remember to wipe off the suction cup marks from your windshield).
Overall, I am quite pleased with my Nuvi 370 and would recommend it to anyone who asked. Nice job, Garmin!
