Amazon.com Product Description
Now you can go from North America to Europe without loading any more maps with the Garmin's transatlantic nüvi 370 Personal Travel Assistant. This pocket-sized personal travel assistant comes with built-in street maps for both continents, making traveling abroad as easy as getting off the plane. The nüvi 370 is loaded with convenience features such as a travel kit and hands-free calling, on top of which it provides you with even more maps and an integrated traffic receiver.
The nüvi 370 comes with built-in street maps for both continents, making traveling abroad so easy. See side view. |
Keep track of all of your speed and timed information on one single screen. |
The 370's travel kit menu delivers access to audio books, pictures, and more. |
Despite being loaded with features, the nüvi 370 still allows you to navigate with ease. This unit comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded NavTeq City Navigator NT street maps for both North America and Europe, and includes a hefty points of interest (POIs) database with hotels, restaurants, fuel stops, ATMs and more. Simply touch the super-bright, sunlight-readable color screen to enter a destination, and the 370 takes you there with either 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. This navigator voice even announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road, and can concentrate on your driving to keep yourself and your loved ones safe. In addition, the 370 accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras, and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs that require your special consideration such as speed zones and safety cameras.
Speaking of keeping you safe, the nüvi 370 lets you make hands-free calls so you can talk freely during your worry-free driving. By integrating Bluetooth wireless technology with a built-in microphone and speaker, you can pair your nüvi with any compatible Bluetooth phone and talk hands-free while staying focused on the road. You no longer have to fumble with your phone's handset to answer a call or dial a number, just tap the 370's screen and you're instantly connected. And with 1-touch dialing for your POIs, you can quickly and conveniently call ahead to make reservations or get needed information.
You can also avoid tie-ups and steer clear of traffic with the nüvi 370's integrated FM TMC traffic receiver. This unit allows you to receive alerts about road construction and traffic problems that lie ahead on your route. Simply touch the nüvi's screen to view traffic details or change your route so you can detour around the problem area. All of which can be customized with configurable vehicle icons that let you choose individual car-shaped icons in a variety of colors that show your position on the map.
In additional to all this functionality, the nüvi 370 includes many must-have entertainment and travel tools such as an MP3 player, an audio book player (subscription to Audible.com required), and a JPEG picture viewer so you can take your favorite music and pictures with you wherever you go. This unit also features a world travel clock with time zones, a currency converter, a measurement converter, and a calculator so that wherever you travel it will be easy to know what you are getting and keep track of your costs. The MP3 player lets you browse music by artist, album, and/or song, while the optional audio books may be purchased from Audible.com which features over 70,000 hours of audio programs. What's more, the nüvi 370 allows further customization via optional software such as travel guide, savings programs and language translation on plug-and-play SD cards for all your travel needs.
The Garmin nüvi 370 comes with a built-in, high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, and lets you view and operate it via its bright, LCD TFT touch-screen display that measures 2.8 x 2.1 inches (W x H) and has a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels with 64,000 colors and a white backlight. As a whole, the nüvi 370 measures 3.87 x 2.91 x 0.87 inches (W x H x D), and weighs only 5.1 ounces for easy portability. This unit provides you with from four to eight hours of battery life (depending on use) via its rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and comes with Garmin Lock, which is an anti-theft feature to protect your investment. While you can add software via the SD card slot, the Garmin nüvi 370 also lets you interface via high-speed USB for loading data, though users should note that, like most USB mass storage devices, this unit is not compatible with Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows Me.

Garmin nüvi 370, City Navigator NT maps for North America and Europe (preloaded, full coverage), FM traffic receiver, vehicle suction cup mount, AC charger, vehicle power cable, dashboard disk, USB cable, carrying case, quick reference guide and, owner's manual.

Garmin Nuvi 370.......2007-12-31
Outstanding product. I have used now in the US, Switzerland, Holland and United Kingdom without problem. Good customer service response from Garmin to supply updated version of map software. My wife and kids also love using it...I need to get a second bracket, cradle and cable in order not to have to keep swapping it out from different cars.
OK, but limited.......2007-12-22
Like another reviewer, I purchased my 370 for a trip to Italy. The Venice area specifically.
I tried it around home for 1 day before I went, and found that it was generally ok, but sometimes gives you exit names that are not on the signs. This was ok when I was playing with it at home, but once I got to Venice, it was a nightmare.
I tried to go from the airport to my hotel, and the first problem I had was trying to enter Italian addresses. It did not recognize the address, but it at least found the road I needed. Ok, so I now had a rough idea of where to go, but no specifics. Not much better than I would have had with a paper map.
It missed my turn, and I ended up on a toll road. I finally turned around, and it again missed the exit I needed. It was apparently taking me out into the middle of nowhere, so I finally resorted to paper maps and found my hotel.
The next day I used it to find the company I was visiting. It got me in the general area again, but did not exactly put me right at the address. On the way, the voice told me to turn right at one point, but the route on the map showed left. I turned right without looking at the screen, and then figured out the mistake. A couple miles later, it tried to get me to turn left, then right, which would have put me into oncoming traffic. As someone else said, it frequently uses the term "turn" when it is really only a road name change. In another case, it wanted me to exit the freeway I was on, go through a roundabout and get back on the same freeway. Overall, I did not trust it in Italy, so it was a stress raiser rather than a stress reducer.
I have run into similar problems using it here in the US now too. Overall, I am not thrilled for $500. If it were $150-200, I wouldn't be so bothered having it sit there but for $500, it is too much money for the inaccuracies and for the amount that you actually are traveling in unknown territory. I think GPS is like a lot of things. If people actually evaluated how much they will use it vs the cost a lot less would be sold. I think I will return mine if I can.
370 kept us from arguing!.......2007-12-21
I bought the 370 before a trip to France this fall. It was handy in Paris but it really proved it's worth in Brittany. When we got off the train and into our rental car in Rennes we were lost, until we turned on the 370 and let it lead us out of town. We became more and more trustful as we drove. And, no more arguments over map reading! We named our 370 Madeline and she has been a reliable companion in Europe and back in the States. I've become fond of her bluetooth capabilites for hands free phone use in the car - works great.
nuvi travel ease.......2007-12-18
I have had a Garmin Etrex for years and just upgraded for a family trip. The Nuvi 370 was a great choice. Priced very reasonable for the power of this unit. I had all the detail that we needed. It lead us to food choice everyday and kept us on a good time table. I am excited to see what it can do once we are overseas. I like so much, I have purchased one as a Christmas gift for my parents.
Garmin.......2007-12-13
The Garmin Nuvi 370 would be awesome if you needed the European maps as well as North American maps. It costs more than the Nuvi 350/360 but worth it for the two map packages. European software package would be $250 if purchased separately with the Nuvi 350 or 360. Worked flawlessly for me while in Europe. I even tracked my flight path while onboard the plane. I used unit on my river cruise down the Danube and located every town we passed in Germany and Austria. Small size of unit and battery life of 8 hours makes this unit very portable.

Product Description
The LG KG800 mobile phone is better known to many people as the Chocolate phone. Don't bother looking for any hidden meaning - quite simply, it's bar-shaped and the best-selling version in South Korea is a dark brown chocolate colour! And the LG KG800 certainly is a best-seller in its home country. It's become a favourite phone for the rich and famous, appearing in the hand (and pocket) of top celebs. Why? Well, the phone cleverly blends modern styling with useful features. When the slide-up design is closed, you'll notice a high-quality display screen and a handful of touch-sensitive keys for controlling essential functions. They glow red when they're being used and fade into the background when they're not needed. Slide the phone open and there's a standard keypad, along with a wealth of useful functions including an alarm clock, calendar, calculator, photo editor and games. The LG KG800 is also an MP3 player, with 128MB of memory providing plenty of storage space. In addition, the back of the phone contains a 1.3 megapixel camera for photos and videos. All this and Bluetooth connectivity as well. If you're looking for stand-out style without compromising on usability, you'll appreciate the LG Chocolate KG800. It certainly is a tasty little camera phone!

LGKG800.......2007-12-06
The phone is quite a nice basic phone but has two main problems, when it gets humid the screen flips to different screens and could be quit irritating and the 2nd problem is the battery, it wears off within 4-5 months and make sure that your fingers a very dry before you use the touch pad otherwise you could end up tossing it out of the window.
Stupid cell phone.......2007-05-13
Stupid phone. Takes forever to figure out how to setup the ring tones !
Beware Of The Specs!!.......2007-03-07
Amazon specify that this phone is cabable of operataing in GSM 850 and this is a mistake. It works in GSM 900.
Sexy but Short Tempered.......2006-09-08
This phone is sexy from the keypad to the box that it comes in. However, it is VERY sensitive to heat and touch, and will go psycho very quick. The Mp3 player is of good quality and holds more than most phones with Mp3s. The earpiece volume is pretty low and leaves a lot to be desired. Basically, this phone is good for getting compliments, but not very talking friendly, much like the RAZR.
good phone, needs a little more.......2006-08-13
A sleek attractive slider phone with almost everything you could want. It has a shiny black body and instead of keys on the front it has a heat sensitive touch pad which lights up bright red when its ready to use.
Although it has a MP3 player it only has 128mb of memory which means you can hold only a couple of dozen songs. Unfortuanltly no expandable memory. It does however come with a really cool set of headphones/handsfree kit.
It is also missing a speaker phone which could be useful.
When it comes down to it a phone is a phone. Do you really need all the extras ????
It comes with a cool game (ZOO ZOO), you can hold up to 1000 names in you contacts book, Plenty of cool ring tones and it is definately one of the best looking phones out there. Its also really small just like a a bar of Chocolate.
Overall this is a good phone and I believe its way better than the motorola V3. But i'll let you all make you own minds up

Customer Reviews:
Great product!.......2007-10-18
This is a great product! I have been using Plantronics equipment for years and this is one of my favorite items. It is a great device if you walk around the office. Many of the people that I work with have also ordered the device and they love it as well. I spend a lot of time on conference calls and it is great to be able to walk around the office while on a call. The same Bluetooth headset that you use with this unit can be used for both your Bluetooth enabled cell phone as well as your desk phone. Great technology and it is very simple to setup! I highly recommend this!
Buzz and echo.......2007-03-30
One thing that is less than obvious is that there is a dial on the side that you should use to match the device to your phone. On the other side there is an a/b type of switch. This means 8 combinations and no guidance. So it's trial and error and calling someone to see how it sounds to them.
I spent an hour trying to find a combination that worked and never could find one that didn't produce a very loud annoying hum and echo.
