Travellers can use the nuvi 350 to navigate to an address or search points of interest (POIs) — places like hotels, restaurants, shopping, and tourist attractions. This GPS unit automatically calculates the fastest route and provides voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions along the way. Thanks to the nuvi’s text-to-speech functionality, the unit audibly announces the name of upcoming streets — letting drivers keep their eyes on the road while navigating through busy traffic and tricky roadways. If users stray off course, the nuvi automatically calculates the quickest way to get back on track.
