So far, I've only written reviews about products I can't live without and the Garmin - Nuvi 360 GPS Device follows this trend. Since I was born without any sense of direction, I once relied solely on Mapquest and a co-pilot to take me to new locations. After being steered the wrong way more than once using mapquest, I finally decided to experience the world of GPS when I rented a car in California. From the start I was completely amazed. After a few strokes of the touch screen, where I simply put in the address of my destination, the Garmin took care of the rest. Easy to follow, clearly understood directions are spouted off to you while you follow your route on the large screen. Even if you daydream like me and miss a turn, the device recalculates your mistake & automatically devises a new route. For the more attentive driver, the feature comes in more handy when there is traffic or road work and you need to take an alternate route. This little device has been a life saver for me and has lowered my stress levels considerably. I recommend this product for everyone but especially for the directionally challenged and new drivers.

I agree with you assessment that Mapquest, which used to be my sidecar navigator, has been replaced by the GPS device. I don't leave the house without my TomTom. Great review!
