I first buy the Garmin Nuvi 350 as a Christmas present for my husband after he have do he research . when I see it in action I think it be great . the touch screen make it very easy to use . it usually take I forever to learn how to use a new machine of any kind . the Garmin store you places\/addresses for future use and can list place of interest , area restaurant , etc. . I buy the second one as a graduation gift for my niece . I would definitely recommend this to other people .
