The 360 doesn't have the FM transmitter either, but a lot of the other models do. My 660 has it, but I didn't find it particularly useful. You have to tune both the nuvi and your car's stereo to an unused frequency, so you're basically dedicating your entire stereo to playing just the voice prompts from the nuvi. Same for connecting the headphone jack on the nuvi to the AUX input on your stereo. You have to leave your stereo in the AUX mode, so you can't listen to anything on the stereo beside the nuvi voice prompts. It sort of defeats the purpose, because if you're not listening to music in your car, the built-in speaker in the nuvi is loud enough.

Now, if you want to listen to music and have the nuvi "cut in" when it has something to say, you can load MP3 files on the nuvi and play them from there and route the sound through the FM transmitter or from the headphone jack to your car's AUX input. I might have gone that route if I didn't use an iPod for car tunes.

 

Received my Nuvi 350 today! What a great little GPS. Very pleased. Actually, after trying to order from the website suggested here, I could not get the order to go through for whatever reason. As it turned out, TigerDirect had the same price with $1.99 shipping, so I bought it from there instead.

I put my old Garmin i3 on Craigslist and have already had a couple of inquiries.....hoping to sell it for $50.

Thanks for the tip on this, Guys.

 

I just recently got the MINI 360 NUVI, its good to get around.
But I always have multiple stops to make and I really wish it had the optimize routes option-automatic reorganizing of multiple destinations. And also I wish it had a GP as icon, oh and that it would have come with portable charging cord and suction cup mount, I had to buy them seperatly, luckily I got Garmin brand car charger for $15 and mount for $10 at Circuit City.

BTW: Got MINI NUVI at Morristown for $313
