The Garmin Nuvi 360 GPS Reviewed

The Garmin Nuvi 360 is a 3.5-inch portable gps device. It has a ton of features wrapped into its small package. It has Bluetooth, text-to-speech technology, a personal translator, multi-media entertainer and tour guide function.

The Bluetooth capabilities of this unit allow you to place a receive hands free calls if you have a Bluetooth enabled cell phone. Simply pair the two Bluetooth devices and enjoy a safer driving experience. When the gps and your phone are connected via Bluetooth, you'll be able to not only place and receive calls hands free but also lookup any number in your contact list, or any one of the six million points of interest names, number or addresses in the gps's database and even have it dial the number for you if you like. This unit goes above and beyond navigating and hands free calling by also featuring a built in mp3 player, audio book player, picture viewer, alarm, currency converters and more.

It comes pre-loaded with North America maps and can be updated via a USB cable connection to your computer. You can even change the map it uses to another continent if you need to. Also included is a vehicle suction cup mount, AC charger, car charger, USB cable, carrying case, getting started guide and of course the owner's manual.

In navigating mode, the unit is phenomenal. It quickly re-routes if you miss your turn or your exit so you are never lost. This unit speaks the directions clearly and even says the exact street name it's asking you to turn onto. This is a great feature because instead of hearing "Turn right", you hear "Turn right on Main Street" which makes a huge difference if you have no clue where you are or you're in heavy traffic. Speaking of traffic, this unit can automatically re-route you around an accident ahead because it receives live traffic and weather info as it happens. I have personally been saved by this feature. If you're on your way somewhere in rush hour traffic and there's a wreck 2 miles ahead, instead of sitting in that traffic for hours it will simply route you off of the next exit and take you around it. This is by far my favorite feature of this unit. In my mind, the gps paid for itself saving me from sitting in hours of traffic.

I must say, this gps is not perfect because every blue moon I know a faster way to go than it does but overall it does a fantastic job getting you where you need to be.

Are USB charger cables the same as USB data cables?

I bought a USB data cable to sync maps on my GPS and Best Buy told me it was also a charger cable. Though the box only says it's a charger and nothing about the cable being a data cable. Are charger cables and data cables the same thing? I ask because my computer is not recognizing the GPS, it's only charging it and I'm wondering if it has to do with the cable.

If it's a USB cable and it fits, it'll work.
