my nuvi 350 has a personality!
My garmin is haunted!
Sometimes (not always) when I am driving on the roads (not highways), I get a "Turn left on Washington Boulevard". Once I turn left, instead of "Drive 0.8 Miles and turn left on Figueroa Street", it just says "Continue 0.8 miles and turn left". It completely neglects to name the street, and I have to hit the top green navigation menu to see what street to turn on.

POI's not working - Why?
Hey guys,
I keep trying to install the futureshop POI (for Canada), as well as the best buy ones - but for some reason, when i go to my nuvi350 and search either name, nothing in my city comes up, even though i have verified that the poi files contain the locations here in town...
So, what am I doing wrong?

Nuvi 350 lock-on times?
Hi everyone - new member here.
I recently picked up a nuvi 350 and I am concerned about how long it takes to lock on a signal upon startup. I turn it on in my underground parking, and when i leave, it takes 3-4 blocks to get a signal and then a few more to remove that 'awaiting better accuracy' signal. .. is this normal? Should I be starting it up after i get out from underground?

NOTL - Jack vs experience
Well, the wife and I are off to Niagara-on-the-Lake for a little culture and R and R. We'll be using Jack to get us there...perhaps. When I programmed in the address of where we're staying, I used the simulation feature to see the suggested route. I'm in Cleveland, so I expected Jack to take us all the way on I-90 to Buffalo and then north on I-190 over the Lewiston Bridge and on to NOTL.

Garmin shipped 2008 CNNT NA and not 2009
What the......
Well, I don't know if anyone else has in hand an actual DVD of the CNNTNA2009 maps? Or do they send EVERYBODY a year old DVD? Does this disk labelled 2008 have the 2009 updates in it? Is it a patchup or a real new edition?
I paid full price for this old DVD, when my Nuvi 880 has the 2009 PRELOADED on it.

C550 start-up time?
Hi all,
My new Garmin C550 took anywhere from 5-10 minutes to acquire the satellites outdoor when it was powered on after being powered off for 10 hours or overnight. Is this normal?
I thought the SiRF III chip set is much better than the older generation in my Navman iCN 510 and the NavMan came up usually less than 5 min in similar circumstances (powered off for overnight).

Dropped Nuvi Nightmare
Well, walking out of my apartment the other day, my girlfriend dropped my nuvi 350. Woops. That was a costly one.
Screen display all wacked out (not cracked) -- the screen turns on, but its all scrambly. Sounds like it powers up fine, finds the satellites, etc, but no way to input directions.
So, what are my options?
1: Pay Garmin $175 to fix it (maybe includes the new map upgrade).

Free Garmin nüvi 200
There is a very long thread going regarding the price of the nüvi. I was going to post this there but figured I'd start a new thread so that, perhaps, more folks might see it. Anyway.......

I have put numerous POIs on my &60, but they do not display when I am driving (I have to really zoom in to see them). Is there a way I can set them to display during normal driving?

Using NUVI to find my car--
I'm going to a concert tomorrow, and I would like to use my NUVI 350 to help me find my way back to my car.
Has anyone had any experience using the nuvi 350 in this way?
I seem to remember my Nuvi 200 had a Pedestrian or Bicycle or Car option.
I cant seem to find that on the 350.
Thanks!
