Browse your stored pictures with an easy-to-use JPEG viewer.


The device sports a handy MP3 player, letting you play songs stored on SD memory cards.
Make Hands-Free Calls
The nuevi 360 integrates wireless technology with a microphone and speaker that lets you make hands-free mobile phone calls using your compatible Bluetooth-enabled phone. Simply dial numbers with the nuevi's touch screen keypad to place a call, and to answer calls, just tap the screen and speak directly into its built-in microphone.

In addition, you can easily look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or from your phone's call history log. Don't know the phone number for your destination? Simply find and dial it from nuevi's database of more than six million points of interest -- including hotels, restaurants, stores, and attractions.

Navigation and Entertainment with Ease
For starters, the nuevi 360 includes a high-sensitivity integrated GPS receiver that offers exceptional performance and reception. The unit's flip-up antenna includes an MCX-type connector for optional external GPS antenna connection. Preloaded software features maps of Europe or North America, and it includes automatic routing, 2D or 3D map perspective, turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names, and a fingertip touch screen interface -- making navigation as easy as it gets.

But navigation is just the beginning. Like the nuevi 350, the nuevi 360 also includes many entertainment and travel tools including an MP3 player, audio book player, JPEG picture viewer, travel alarm, and currency converters.

The nuevi 360 features a bright, 2.8 x 2.1-inch TFT display with white backlight for easy readability. At 3.87 x 2.91 x 0.87-inches (WxHxD) and just 5.1 ounces, the unit is small enough to be placed on the dashboard with the included suction mount, or into your pocket for easy transportability. The unit also features Garmin Lock -- an advanced anti-theft feature that disables the unit from performing any functions until you type in a specific four-digit PIN or take the unit to a predetermined location. A built-in lithium ion battery will give you up to eight hours of power, and an included 12/24 volt adapter cable will let you run the navigator off your vehicle's power. An AC battery charger is also included.

A built-in Travel Kit that includes sample MP3s and audio books will get you started with entertainment, and with the unit's SD memory card expansion slot you can add optional software, such as language and travel guides. A USB port is also included for loading and updating data.

What's in the Box
Gamin nuevi 360, Preloaded City Navigator NT North America or Europe (full coverage), vehicle suction cup mount, AC charger, 12/24 volt adapter cable, dashboard disk, USB interface cable, carrying case, owner's manual, and quick reference guide.

5 out of 5 stars Garmin Nuvi 360 Review   November 17, 2008
Garmin nuevi 360 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Bluetooth and Text-to-Speech

This GPS navigator is a wonderful product and a value for money buy. Even though most new cars come equipped with a GPS navigator, this one is still worth having. Its handy, with all necessary GPS navigator functions like Favorite Locations, Text-to-speech and wide array of search points.

It comes with all peripherals needed like the 12/24 volt car charger, USB charger and a nice case.

All in all highly recommended for anyone looking for a quality product in ecomomical price range. Amazon is the place to buy your new Garmin nuvi!



4 out of 5 stars Better than I Thought, Great Product!!   November 16, 2008
This thing is really something, I really didn't need it, I just wanted it! It doesn't always map out the shortest way, but either does Mapquest. I would have given it "5 stars", but the bluetooth sometimes forgets to pair with my phone


5 out of 5 stars My first GPS~~Looks like I got the BEST!   November 14, 2008

This is a great GPS system. It comes with everything you could possibly want. Text to Speach, Bluetooth capable, carry case so you don't leave it in the car. If you do leave it it has an anti theft password you can use and then stickers for your window telling would be thefts to pass this one by. You get the A/C addapter, the car adapter, USB cable, Dash mount window mount, CD Rom and even a free coupon for an audio book to listen to in the car.

Some more expensive units don't come with everything you need. You find out when you get it home that it can only be on when the car is running and you have no other way to charge it. The screen is quite clear and easy to read. No need to get a 4.3 size this is really quite perfect, infact larger would be more of a distraction.

You get screen savers also, how cool. There are different voices to choose to talk to you. Some have complained about the volume but you can adjust it easliy. The touch screen programing is so simple and the letters are big enough if you have larger hands you are not pressing two letters at the same time.

I tried it just coming home from church and it wanted me to take another route than I had planned I just went on my way and she said reaculating and in 1 sec she had my way planned. You can zoom in and out what type of view you want.

This is fine unit and I cannot wait to take it on a trip. Oh you can also get chips to update it for vacations like Europe and the like.



5 out of 5 stars Love my Nuvi   November 13, 2008
My cousin gave this to me as a gift, and I love it. Tells me where to go and even which side of the road. Colors are bright and clear, volume is great. I've even used the bluetooth and it uploads all the contacts from my iPhone. I also use it for geocaching and can upload cache pages with all the details. I'm buying one for my daughter next.


5 out of 5 stars Had for 3 years   November 12, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have had the Nuvi 360 for over 3 years and I love it more now than when I first purchased it. I normally do not write reviews, but when a company gets something right, you want to let people know. I do not want to rehash everything that has already been said. I just purchased the 2009 Garmin map update for North America. Some people may not need the map update, the older maps seem to do the trick most of the time. The old roads are normally still going to be their. But I travel a lot for my company, so I need to find newer business addresses. Anyway the update was flawless and the update also includes a updated POI list. When I use to go out of town on a business trip, I would always dread looking on mapquest or a regular map to find something. Finding a business is half the battle for me. When I arrive in another city, I set the Hotel I am staying in as a favorite place. I know I can just take off in any direction and have confidence it can get me back to where I need to be. A lot of times, I will just ride around with no address inputted in my Garmin. So, when I get tired of looking around, the hotel if just a couple of pushes away on the Garmin. It is now closing in on 2009, I see alot of cars now having other GPS units that are not Garmins. I guess they do not know how easy a Garmin is to use. The Garmin 360 had trouble with the bluetooth conecting to my phone when I first purchaed it. But they quickly came out with a firmware update that fixed the problem.
