The nuvi 350 doesn't have Bluetooth. The 360 does. I've found it OK but I have to say...I hardly ever use it.

I'm currently using the Garmin nuvi 770 which is discontinued...

It's got bluetooth, MP3 player, and FM transmitter all of which I haven't use yet.

Anyone know if this has the voice recognition that has "Turn left on _____ St ahead"?

text to speech is not the same as voice recognition.

When I think portable, I think small... real small...

I have a Fujitsu Siemens Pocket LOOX N100 that I used on a US and Euro trip. Loaded the unit with TomTom software and North American and European maps. This little unit found all the landmarks and tube/metro/underground stations in the UK and France.

5hr battery life, and the smallest (8.9 x 6.2 x 1.6cm @ 110g) GPS out there. Can't beat it.
