The Garmin nuvi 1350 is, overall, a very good GPS. A complete instruction manual is not included - you have to download it from the Garmin website. A "Quick Start" manual is included in the box. One thing that is not clearly explained is that you really have to take the unit outside and acquire a satellite signal before trying to do anything else. Mine would not get a signal inside or near my house because of trees and other obstructions. When I tried to view the map, the map kept insisting that I was in Taiwan even though I was pretty sure that I was still in New Jersey. Evidently, they install a temporary map for testing at the factory and this map disappears after initially acquiring a satellite signal in the U.S. I nearly returned the unit because I thought that it was either defective or was not a U.S. model. None of this is clearly explained in the Quick Start manual.

You are entitled to one free map download in the first 60 days to insure that you have the latest map. With a DSL connection, it takes 4.5 hours to download the map and another 2 hours to transfer it from your PC to the GPS. The step-by-step directions are excellent, it is completely automated and you can pause and continue later. Overall, not really a problem.
