This is actually pretty nice. But if you want a bigger screen, you might have to chunk out another 50 bucks. Overall, all garmins are good.

Like the size. Big enough to see details on the screen, but manageable enough to keep in pocket.

I agree with #'s 1 & 2.
I bought Garmin models Nuvi360 and c330 for both my wife and in-laws who aren't tech savvy, and can attest they are extremely intuitive to use. Their POI database (points of interest) arguably has the highest number over the competition. It's great if you're in or passing through an unfamiliar area and trying to quickly locate a restaurant, bank/ATM, shopping store, movie theater, hotel, etc..
At $150 this is a steal. The only gripe is the units can take 1-2 minutes to find your location if they're powered on in a different place from where they were turned off.

Good unit, but this isn't really a deal. I bought a refurbed Nuvi 680 - 4.3 in screen, Garmin warranty, FM Transmitter, Bluetooth, and 1 year of MSN for $170 last month.

I have one (Replaced with a 765t) and it's a good basic GPS. All most people will ever need. Annual map updates are kind of expensive but POI databases are dirt cheap. I picked up one that warns me of redlight cameras.

I've heard that the new units are better at acquiring satellites. Does anyone have any experience?

Nice price for this Garmin Nuvi 350. Last year, it was $300.
But I thought Garmin discontinues the Nuvi 350 model?
In anyway, fork over a bit more and get the larger 4.3" screen.
