My old Garmin 2720 died on my last trip so it was time to buy a new GPS. I bought a Zumo 350LM.

A lot has changed. I like it.

I was just watching the video and saw him changing the map view. He only mentioned 3D and north up. I like to use track up. He didn't mention that one but does the new 350LM have that option as well like my 660 does? They have added quite a few shortcuts and new features like the gas station locations which would really be helpful.

It has track up also. Still learning about what it can do.

Rollin,

I can't find in the specs if the new zumo has the same bluetooth with A2DP technology as the 660 & 665 ?

On the Specs page it does says:

Bluetooth? wireless technology: yes (helmet or headset use only)

And whats the deal with all the gps units getting rid of the mp3 players?

A2DP ? There's nothing in the manual.

To get the traffic with the 66x series, you either have to use the car mount or subscribe to XM. Does it have a motorcycle mount and is is compatible with a traffic antenna?

Just looked it up... Traffic same as 66x series.
No A2DP since it only sends nav info to bluetooth. No mp3 or phone connection.
Marc, The 66x has gas station locations on the 'current location' screen. Just touch your avatar to bring that screen up.

If you watch the video it shows the gas stations as blue dots on the local map. That way you know relatively where they are. Very handy. The 660 program gives you a list of gas stations with "as the crow flies" distance and a relative direction. The new one is much better.
