 3760T--Love it August 4, 2010

Up-graded from our stolen 660 Nuvi to the 3760T. The 3760T works great, nice sized screen, easy to operate. Garmin finally has up-dated their information, our address was changed 12 years ago and it has finally showed up in their maps correctly. The product is top notch, the secondary seller (Car Toys), and shipping sucked big time; Amazon itself did OK.
 Cool Form Factor September 2, 2010
PGM (ATL)
This is my second Garmin GPS. Finally upgraded the old Nuvi250. The pricing structure of the new 3700 series was hard to figure out, but I knew I wanted traffic. The base model requires an extra antenna power cord that costs over $100. The middle unit includes the traffic antenna for ony $50 more, so that's a no brainer. I think the top model includes voice prompts, which are of no interest to me.
I use GPS all day, every day, for 5-9 routes a day as an HVAC service technician in a major metropolitan city. It is amazingly helpful to have traffic routing and tho you have to trust it and every now and then veto the routing, it is pretty clever.
I love the new slim form factor. It is SO sleek and slim, and it looks cool having my iPhone and Garmin on a twin mount next to each other. The multi touch isn't as slick as Apple's, but who's it?! The resolution is great which really helps when quickly glancing at the unit while driving.
Great unit. I recommend it to others.
 Not quite the last gps to own July 9, 2010

The first thing you will notice is the screen; sharp, bright and viewable in almost all conditions. Garmin adopted an iphone design (aka iphone 4) and some of the gui. You can see it landscape or portrait mode depending on how you are holding it. You can also use two fingers to zoom in and out, change perspective and even rotate the map. Though after trying the unit, it was hard going to other gps interfaces. You flip through lists with a finger, and even has some inertia to keep the list moving. The downside is that sometimes it is hard to select, because it tries to move the list. The unit fits into your shirt pocket, but you might want to get a sleeve to keep it from getting scratched. Unlike the iphones, the 3760's screen gets smudged from oily fingers.
Something happened to my unit's databases, though I was able to test the maps and navigation. In general it works like most garmin units, but couldn't sort the current route nor saved trips. Not sure whether all my difficulties where related to the problems I was having, but the unit kept taking me close but not to the actual locations. Usually told me that the destination was on the wrong side of the street. Their pos database is one of garmin's biggest advantages, however unlike tomtom which know their poi aren't very extensive, you can't modify the poi or street database from the unit. The closest thing is to report the poi to garmin for removal, or update the phone.
This 3760 is supposed to learn about your trips, and use that information to plan a better route. Either I didn't had enough trips, or kept going to different places, so I have no idea if it makes any difference. I was really hoping the 3760 would at least have custom avoids like the 8x5 units. This would be specially useful, for those time the unit keeps directing you through that street that is planned to be built within the next 10 years, or that street they keep working on, or the street happens to be the wrong direction.
The gps seems to work well, but in some shadow areas seems to have trouble. At one point I was stopped and the unit kept spinning my location. However, it was accurate and fast.Think that it is rather fast to reacquire a lock, because the unit has a sleep mode. I didn't test it in a challenging place like new york, but maybe other users can share their experiences. Didn't notice it showing my location on the wrong street or side of the access road, like the 765. Once more not sure if it was related to my difficulties, but the unit wouldn't show where the car was parked, nor change modes (it is design to work with cars, on foot and bicycling) when plugged into the car cradle.
In general the unit is a nice gps, but garmin left out some feature that would make the user's life easier. It is indeed nice, and did I mentioned the screen?
Not worh the $400! August 15, 2010

I decided to buy the 3760 after having the 250W Garmin for several years. I wanted a GPS unit that would warn me of traffic issues and could route me otherwise, and also one that had a sleeker design. The only problem I had with my 250W Garmin was that it took a long time to pick up satellites and then route me to the place that i wanted to go. The 3760 has upgrades like a better design, sleek, can be hand held horizontally or vertically and it does look like an IPhone. You can also use it as a walking navigation system which is neat, although I've always just used this as a car navigation. However, I must stress that one of the other reviewers was correct: It does NOT have any accuracy in letting you know in advance that there is traffic or providing any type of traffic updates. So because I live in NJ, (land known for being a constant parking lot), it never warns me that there is an accident ahead and a lot of traffic and never once has routed me to another way to go to avoid all of the traffic which was one of my main reasons for buying this unit. Now, that being said, I did try to adjust all of the traffic settings on the unit to ensure it was turned on, but it still does not work to update me in advance of the traffic. NOT WORTH $400! I think that it is worth it if the traffic updates would work like it claims to do. I'm debating whether to return it for a new unit or just return it for an older Garmin (like the 765) which everyone claims to work well, and it's cheaper, too because it's an older model. The other features of this unit were fine, it picked up the satellite signal very fast, and it could locate all of the addresses I placed in the unit to travel to, even confusing areas of New York, NJ and Connecticut with no problems.
Really great but ... August 15, 2010

This GPS is head and shoulders better than my previous NUVI GPS. It is slim, sleek and has some really great features. I love the builtin bluetooth, the red-light camera alert is very helpful. Much easier to work with the sound. it is far more responsive and the routes are excellent. Much more improved.
However ... periodically it just blanks out ... loses the route and leaves me high and dry. I have to re-start it to get it back. The traffic function is laughable. I'm in the middle of San Francisco and on a regular street and the traffic alert goes off. And, when I'm dead-stopped in traffic it shows no problems. go figure. The security function has yet to work. I am supposed to be able to use it without entering a security code at my home. Hasn't worked yet.
If I had to do it over again, I'd buy a different model. I Love GARMIN but I think they rushed this model.
