garbage touch screen SLOW SLOW response to user inputI owned a garmin nuvi 350 for 5 years before this product. Loved the nuvi 350 ....I absolutely HATE my new one. When it's time to input an address the response to punching in a street name or number is insanely slow...so slow you find yourself double entering half the letters. Most of the time i'm not sure if the device is hung up, didn't register my button push or ??
Avoid this unit like the plague- Garmin has created the most confusing and crowded product line I've ever seen- it's impossible to figure out how to compare one against the other. the basic rule is- the more you spend the better off you are.
Looks cheap, functions cheap, feels cheap.

Janky GPS, no Traffic as Advertised,I'm in the market for a new GPS to replace my old Navigon 2200 GPS. Tried several models and purchased this one during one of Amazon's many GPS sales. I found this GPS a bit annoying to use. First I purchased the WT model which claims to include the Traffic, but it actually doesn't. It uses MSN Direct as it's traffic monitor but it never explains how to actually activate it, even though it constantly prompts you to everytime the unit starts up. I'm assuming I have to do it by plugging the unit into my PC. But the free MSN traffic only lasts 6 months, after that you have to pay.
I tried out the free trial of the Safety Camera subscription. This doesn't seem to work well at all, it was very random on the safety notices - when I looked around I didn't see a single Safety camera. I drove around the beltway for a few days then on the fourth day all of a sudden there's a safety camera warning every mile on the beltway. There are no Safety cameras on the Beltway, so where it was pulling this data from, I don't know.
It has a really good POI database, I used it to find eating places around my new office location and it worked flawlessly.
This unit fails at it's most basic function which is giving directions. It's excellent once it catches on and calculates, but a lot of times when you are leaving an Office Building, or Shopping Parking lot, it refuses to navigate it's way out of such areas. All it'll say is Go to X Street, or X Highway with no directions on how to actually get to X Highway. It doesn't tell you which way to turn or anything, sometimes the road you need to be on after leaving a Parking lot is 2 or 3 blocks away. It was annoying beyond belief. Some days the Voice Direction worked, others, it didn't. Sometimes the refresh is a few seconds slow and the directions will lag by a few seconds - so if you have to make a sudden turn this may cause an issue.
I like the favorites function, but I don't like clicking 3 times just to get to it.
The positives of the unit are, it has a pretty interface with big colorful icons, the POI db is really good, very accurate once it actually starts navigating, the fonts are all nice and big. I also really liked the holder, it felt solid and gave enough room where you can bend it in just about any direction. Unlike Tom Tom's which was so rigid it broke the minute I tried to move it.
I also hate feeling nickel and dimed, when you plug the GPS into your computer and go to the Garmin store, there are a bunch of really cool optional features for this unit but everything costs $80 or more. So if I wanted things like traffic, speed cameras, special maps, etc... It'd cost me another $200 or $300. Not cool.
I ended up returning the unit. The GPS hunt goes on...

Nice Features, Easy to use, Hard to update maps, No MSN coverage I bought this for my wife, who is Russian. She was very impressed that there is a Russian voice and text built in (among dozens of other languages). The system is very easy to use and the graphics are great. It has just about any POI that you could possibly want. Routes and directions are very clear, but you have to make sure you set your route preferences (as with any GPS), or you'll be driving down winding farm roads in the name of "shortest route".
When you get the system, you can do a one time free map update download, which just wasn't working. By reading some blogs, I found out that it won't work with Internet Explorer (most of the time), so I downloaded Mozilla Firefox and was finally able to download the map update (took about 2 hours). I had to restart my laptop to get the update to run, but it seems to have installed correctly. I don't know if it made a difference, but I plugged in a 4GB SD card before installing the update; I read about people having problems with running out of memory in the middle of an update.
It took a couple of tries to get our cell phones to find the bluetooth, but after the initial setup, they find each other quite well.
I tried to activate the MSN Direct 3 month Free trial, but was told that there is no coverage in my area (Killeen, Texas). Fortunately, we are moving to San Antonio, which has coverage. Doesn't matter much; MSN Direct is going away in 2012, so I guess I'll get an FM traffic update reciever.
We're happy with it overall; no real problems so far.

For the money, a great value.First, let me say after reading most of the reviews here and now having had the 340-S for about a week now, I can write my own preliminary review.
- I received the unit as promised for a decent price: $119. I had no trouble installing the TomTom Home 2.7 app- I use Windows 7 Pro. I went through the initial updates with no major problems.
- I did have a minor glitch: When running initial updates, I was asked by Windows if I wanted to run Scandisk on the TT drive. It was at this point, during additional updates I received an error waring that the updates could not be completed. I ran the Scandisk as recommended by Windows and retried Updates: successful. Same thing on the "Use Onetime Map update" got about 90% and then it fail, No Maps! I called Support and the support tech walked me through how to restart the map download to device. Worked well.
Like any product, there will be some quirks to how it works and is maintained. But for the price, I am quite satisfied.
Parting thought: I only wish I could reduce the size of the map by say, leaving out Mexico. I do not travel there , in a car at least. As it is, I can only have one computer voice available at one time.
