Comments:
My daughter, a 25 year old, Engineering honor graduate has a peculiar disability. She gets lost...a lot.
<br>Even in her hometown. She has no sense of direction. This was always a problem, and has become a
<br>career problem, as she is being dispatched as an Account Executive to visit important key clients and
<br>has to make remote presentations. She always had to leave 30 minutes early, and still was often late to
<br>meetings.
<br>
<br>I got her a Garmin Nuvi 350 for her birthday and it has changed her life. Usable right out of the box,
<br>and requiring no manual, I took it on a trip to Mardi Gras. It absolutely correctly routed us, including
<br>expressway lane-change directions for merges and exits, and the data base contained directions to our
<br>motels, houses of friends, and even map-chosen parade viewing site.
<br>
<br>My daughter's car needed work and I referred her to Campbell Tire Company in Alpharetta, Ga. She
<br>entered "Campbell Tire Company" and a choice came up..."Campbell Tire Company, Alpharetta, GA?".
<br>The Garmin knew the street address and zip, just from the name. It also did the same for restaurants,
<br>inputting "name only", and even a plaza in downtown Atlanta (to go to an outdoor concert).
<br>
<br>No problems, no glitches. I am shopping for an RV for retired travel, and my second purchase will be a
<br>Nuvi 350 of my own. PS: As an Apple computer enthusiast, I am a big fan of great "interfaces". The
<br>Nuvi has the best interface since the Macintosh.
