Garmin Nuvi 2360LT Sat Nav - any reviews please?

[Pepscobra]

Hi All,
Looking to get a new GPS. Have always liked the Garmins and have narrowed my selection down to the 2360LT.
Does anyone have any feedback or recommendations before I buy?
For me, the priorities are:
- user friendliness,
- lots of useable features,
- bluetooth connectivity with my iphone4 for hands free calling,
- slim compact design.

Cheers...!

I haven't had a look into the current ones.
I am still running with the Nuvi 265WT (widescreen Traffic model)

Looks like this 2360LT comes with lifetime free map updates ... I'd say the traffic receiver is in the cable like mine is in the 265WT.

Also has Speech Recognition ... and historical traffic data for traffic trends ... much better than the earlier traffic models.

The price is pretty good as well ... around the $200-220 mark.

You really can't go wrong with Garmin ... I am on my 2nd one .... my first one lasted me 6 years (screen eventually didn't work in the end).

^^^ thanks mate, good feedback.

Havnt had too much experience with GPS's, but have heard pretty good things about the Garmins.

No problems.
For that price as well ... you can't go wrong.

I have a Tom Tom atm. Have had it for a couple of years and does everything I need. I recently bought my cousin a Garmin for her birthday (family present really) as my aunty has one and hasn't had any issues with it.

Bought the 2360LT for the other half. The traffic congestion routing works well. It's on the cable. The only thing I don't like about it is that it can take up to 15 secs to lock on. I'm used to 5 secs on my Garminphone but that has the advantage of data.

Touchscreen isn't very sensitive if you're used to smartphones but for general use it's fine. Good features. I'd buy another one if it broke down.

BTW bought mine at Costco for about $240 last October.

Cheers for the feedback all!
Well I found a seller online and managed to buy a 2360LT for just on $200 delivered, which I think was pretty good.
Hopefully arrives soon and i'll get to use it on my next trip back to Perth.
I probably should have made sure of this before buying... You can pair it with an iphone 4 right?

Hi All, just a follow up to this thread... I received my Garmin Nuvi 2360LT last week and had a fair bit of fun with it over the weekend.
All I can say is this GPS is fantastic; anyone in the market for a new satnav should have a look at this one. Its very easy to use and the voice command feature is incredible!
Bluetooth works like a charm and as a hands-free kit it is brilliant.
Cant fault it... worth every bit of the $200 purchase price.

Compared to what I have paid for them previously ... these have really come down in price. $200 is a great deal for what is in them.

I picked up a 3450LMT yesterday and yes, it is much better than my previous TomTom GO 1000.
