Comment:
We bought the nuvi 1350 to get to a location in our own state that neither my wife or I had been too.<br /><br />It was excellent at calculating the route and it had a good arrival time estimate. It's usually only +- 2 minutes.<br /><br />The only issue we have run into is that keys on the on-screen keyboard are sometimes very non-responsive. Especially near the edges of the screen. I've tried to re-calibrate the touch screen without success.<br /><br />I take it to California with me when I'm there for work and it sure does save on GPS rental from the rental car agency.
