Default Re: Garmin NUVI GPS map update for 2008 includes more of The Villages

I have the NUVI 350 and love it. Size (3.5" screen) is great you can put it in your pocket when you leave the car (important I think) which would be harder with the larger models and the size doesn't get in the way of your view as much as the larger 4.3" models. The feature I really like is the text to voice feature that the 350/360/6xx models have. With text to voice the NUVI not only calls out the turn but also tells you what hwy or street it is and this to me is a great feature to have since at times you aren't sure if the right turn in 100 feet is on street x or the one right after that street y . The new 2xx models don't have Text to voice I don't think. The new Nuvi 350 or 360 should have the 2008 maps but as far as I know there is no way to tell from the box. If you want blue tooth you need the 360 model - the 350 doesn't have it.
