Overview Reviews Details Accessories Staff Reviews Articles & Videos by Dominic Devito Meet Garmin's top-of-the-line portable navigator Garmin built their nüvi 3590LMT portable navigator to help make everyday travel and special road journeys smart, easy, and fun. It's got a nice 5" multi-touch display so you can see the maps and menus easily. Built-in Bluetooth® connectivity lets you make and receive calls with your compatible phone, while voice-activated guidance helps you keep your hands on the wheel. Lightning-fast traffic alerts and map updates for the life of the nüvi without any added costs help round out this advanced transportation tool. Find your way around with ease Like the multi-touch display on your smartphone or tablet? The nüvi 3590LMT's glass screen gives you the same sort of fingertip control, allowing quick map zooming and shifting to give you the perspective you want. The display moves automatically between landscape and portrait orientation, making it ideal for discovering locales on foot. The nüvi 3590LMT also offers maps of the entire U.S. plus most of Canada, Mexico, and several Caribbean Islands, along with 8 million searchable points of interest. Convenient control using your vocal cords While the glass display makes the nüvi 3590LMT more fun to touch, you also have the option for safer operation with hands-free control. You can wake the navigator up with a customized voice command, then find the menu screen you want just by speaking. Or just say the address or name of the point of interest you want to find, and the nüvi will locate it for you quickly. High-speed Garmin 3D Digital Traffic updates When it comes to traffic information, nothing's more important than timeliness. Garmin's Digital 3D Traffic races past the competition, with updates that are up to 4 to 10 times faster than traditional services. It can feed you details every 30 seconds in some areas, using the HD Radio broadcasting system in addition to all the other sources Garmin traditionally uses. You'll see congestion as it develops and be able to route around it, rather than getting stuck at inopportune times. Best of all, the updates are free for the life of your navigator. Advanced Garmin Guidance 3.0 The Garmin Guidance 3.0 feature set is the engine that drives the nüvi 3590LMT. You'll see maps load and routes form with uncanny speed, and you can save even more time by finding and selecting businesses right on the map screen. Text-to-speech voice prompts that say actual street names at turns keep you focused on the road, while Lane Assist guides you through tricky intersections. When you're entering an address or point of interest, the 3590LMT uses predictive text to give you more time traveling instead of searching. Easy-to-follow visuals Select landmarks and terrain aspects appear in 3D, giving you the most comprehensive view of your surroundings, which is especially helpful when you're exploring on foot. And photoReal junction views make complicated interchanges a breeze with easy-to-follow realistic representations, including signs. Sometimes the screen will split automatically to give you a photoReal view of an intersection so you'll have a clear picture of the next turn. Handy features for every kind of driver Do your friends call you "leadfoot"? The nüvi 3590LMT's speed limit displays with visual warnings on major roads can help keep you safe. A quick listing of destinations near approaching highway exits will save you valuable time when you're ready for a pit stop. You'll also find a photo viewer, "Where Am I?" emergency aid, audiobook player, trip planner, and other legacy Garmin features. Learns your driving patterns to help you stay ahead of traffic Garmin's myTrends feature keeps track of your driving habits and can predict where you're going once you're on your way, then give you an estimated time of arrival. If you live in an area not covered by the traffic info service, you can activate Garmin's trafficTrends feature, allowing the nüvi 3590LMT to take historic traffic data into account when creating routes. It'll guide you towards paths that are less congested depending on when you're traveling, saving you time and gas.

In 8/2013,on a car trip to/from Bklyn, NY to Ottawa, Canada, the 3590 repeatedly demanded I make a u-turn while going thru Thousand Islands border crossing to Canada. From Ottawa, in navigated me thru Montreal even after changing course along the 401 back to Thousand Islands border crossing. After Montreal,l it directed me away from the I -87. Google maps directed me around Manhattan (nightmare traffic)!!!, Nuvi 3590 directed me thru Manhattan using the GWB. 3590 directed me thru loops (back to the course I already travelled), longer routes & directed me away from shorter,closer courses to my destinations. A horrible experience for my first road trip!! Pros: voice prompt, street names, lane guidance. Cons: Unreliable,false navigation repeatedly. Was this review helpful? Yes No Pretty Cool !!! Written By Homer36, Prairie Du Sac, WI on Thursday, January 31, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I only had this GPS for a couple of weeks. I have a radar detector too but I don't speed. Guess I just like gadgets. I really do not drive that much so I probably do not know of it's capabilities or ever use them. I punched in a local restaurant one day and after spending an hour in the restaurant it asked to rate the restaurant when I returned to the car. I know that has nothing to do with getting to a destination but I thought that was pretty neat and more than I would expect from a GPS. I really love what I've seen so far. I use it to travel a much used route to a destination just to see it work. I can't really rate it's features too much having not used them.. I could have purchased a less expensive one but I like to think that you get what you pay for. I think I did. Pros: All of it's features that I know of. Cons: None that I know of. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin 3590LMT Written By Raswank, Auburn,Ma on Wednesday, January 02, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Pros: Everything Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes No Nuvi 3590LMT Written By GaryW, Palmdale, CA on Friday, December 21, 2012 I have only been using the device for a few weeks and haven't had any problems with it. The 3D feature is nice and has reflected the terrain that i have driven through. I have the Ecoroute accessory that I used with the nuvi 1390 that this unit replaced and had no problem linking the 3590 to it. The screen is more responsive to touch and is easier to view then previous units I have owned. The only complaint I have so far is with the traffic reception. The 1390 picked up traffic problems quicker than this unit does. The traffic does offer more information once it does come in. I haven't used the voice command or blutooth as of yet so I can't comment on that. Pros: More responsive touch screen and easier to view. Cons: Weaker traffic reception than earlier model that it replaced. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No This is the best Written By OJC, Champaign, IL on Monday, December 10, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I now own three GPS devices, one purchased in 2005, one for my motorcycle and now this GPS. I have found it to be in my opinion top of the line. It does everything I need and it is very easy to operate. Pros: User friendly, does practically everything for you. Cons: None right now 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Device Written By NormH, Felton, CA on Tuesday, December 04, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This Garmin has exceded all my expectations. I've only had it for a week but on one trip I was really impressed with the re-routing it is lightining quick. On our 150 mile trip I told my wife we will follow all of the directions it gave us regardless. We were on a heavily traveled freeway and it had us turn off on one of the exits a good 50 miles from our next exit. As soon as we pulled off the freeway was at a dead stop and the directions had us parallel the freeway for about 5miles and has us get back on and the traffic was cleared up. This was the HD traffic that steered us around the incident pretty impressive. Cons: none yet 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin nüvi® 3590LMT Written By OivS, Charlotte, NC on Monday, November 26, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Some what disappointed in its choice of routes...Cannot get it to go on interstates exclusively...it always looks for shortest route which usually take one through some very congested parts of town as well as plenty of stop lights 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin nüvi® 3590LMT Written By Doug, Corona, CA on Thursday, November 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Works great. Has a lot of features. Takes a little reading to find out all the things it does, but not to bad. I use for vacation traveling. Also use it for off road use and the tracking function works great. Pros: Very clear. Very accurate. Cons: Does not come with an a/c charger for the house. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Very Dissapointed Written By Trevor, Vancouver, WA on Sunday, November 11, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've had this for 6 months and have found it largely unusable. I bought it to replace a 5 year old Garmin nuvi that I used constantly and, for the most part, was a great product until updates became too much for it's limited memory. This unit suffers from terrible reception - it can take hours to figure out where it is. It's unpredictable, difficult to program and unreliable. I had trouble trying to contact Garmin about this, and gave up when I got an iPad and added a 5 dollar app that does everything I need. I think dedicated GPS units are quickly becoming obsolete. 3 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No NUVI 3590 Written By Boynton B, Boynton Beach FL on Thursday, October 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) NUVI 3590 arrived on time thanx to Crutchfield , well packaged. Easy to install. I went up the learning curve to use & downloaded the instruction manual. The unit when going past a turn takes too long to realize & notify. Does not have the ole nag, "RECALCULATING" I think the accuracy is also not very tight. This is the 3rd Garmin I have owned & best one yet... It performs well finding various locations & the voice recognition ireall nice.The 5" screen is a plus. HOWEVER, the shiny bezel & glass are something I wish were not there. In some instances it offers faster routes. It is a little powerhouse & great to hear the street names called out. I would like to have a male voice as the lower frequencies are easier on the ear. I am using the suction cup windshield mount as I have in the past. Here is sunny Florida, the heat tends to have the unit drop off the glass.. The unit is pricey but worth it. I have not used the blue tooth fone features just yet Pros: Best Garmin yet Cons: see my review...minor flaws 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Awesome GPS!! Written By Ron, Longview, TX on Friday, October 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a true 5 star product. The speech recognition is superb, and makes for safe hands free operation. The speed limit indicator is great and keeps you safe and withing the law. The graphics are super, with great detail. Really like how it works with my Android phone, auto answering calls, and hands free communications. And with lifetime maps and traffic, his is a true winner from Garmin. Pros: Great display. and accurate maps. Voice recognition and control work great. Hands free operation of your Android smartphone. Cons: Can't think of any. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Best Garmin I've had Written By GeorgeH, Lafayette, CA on Thursday, October 11, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the fourth Garmin (at least) I've owned over the last 10+ years, and the best yet. The portrait or landscape orientation feature is a great addition, as is the Smartphone Link. The link is far more reliable at providing traffic information than the traffic receiver, at least in my part of the world, even if it does have an annual fee. I don't use the speakerphone capability - that's fairly marginal compared to my Jabra Freeway, and I really see no reason for it. Fortunately, you can use the bluetooth link for the Smartphone Link and turn off the phone control (aka hands free). Every now and then a call is of marginal quality, which I attribute to the phone's bluetooth bandwidth being used by the traffic link, but overall the speakerphone and the GPS seem to co-exist well. Overall, a very good Pros: Smartphone link, dual orientation Cons: Why bother with a marginal quality speakerphone? 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Most Expensive is not always the best... Written By roboni, Amherst, NY on Saturday, October 06, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This product was purchased last than a month ago and I am having trouble with the internal antenna. Cannot get and hold the satellite positions, right now the unit is not doing me any good at all. For the price it was not an inexpensive purchase... Pros: This model is suppose to be Garmin's top of the line Prestige Series GPS, with all the bells, lights and whistles. Cons: Does not work at finding satellites dues to a faulty antenna system... 6 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes No The Real Deal Written By red82skins, 33542 on Monday, September 03, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This GPS is the Real Deal, it will guide the most geographically inclined to their destination!; 3 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Excellent product Written By Nainagg, Sugar land, TX on Sunday, August 19, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is my very first GPS, I have had it for only a couple of weeks ago and have nothing to compare it with, but I simply love it, it works very well , calculates very fast and is very easy to use. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good Garmin GPS. 6 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No I love it! Written By yankeedime, Belle Chasse, LA on Saturday, August 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I wanted to wait to complete my review until I had used this Garmin several times. I am happy to say that after a short learning curve, this device is awesome. In the economy car I drive, the Garmin's bluetooth makes it easy for me to make and take calls hands free. It seems to find the locations that I hunt for much easier than my old Garmin 660 (which was state of the art in its time). I have two complaints: 1. When I wanted to embark on a 10 hour drive to my sisters house several states away, I had to force the new Garmin to search for her address IN HER STATE. Why it does not ask for the state when you type in the address is beyond me??? THAT took me a while to figure out! 2. The sound quality is not as good when used for handsfree calling than the older model that I had. :( But all in all, I am happy with the device and it's large screen with various views. Thanks again, Garmin! And thank you, Crutchfield for the best price and free shipping!! Pros: Large multiview screen, Bluetooth capability. Cons: Out of state address searches (not so user friendly), sound quality is only fair. 8 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

It is easy read,follow path,tells if traffic jam, and type easy no complex better than Benz, Lexus andTom Tom.

Cons: Wish Traffic audio messgaes receive it on same speaker instad of another cable hook up.voice direction is kind of slow 6 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin Nuvi 3590 LMT Written By nmiller, Murrieta, CA on Friday, June 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) A business trip in a rental car through Arkansas and Missouri was the catalyst for buying the 3590 LMT. The larger screen, traffic reporting and focused directions on a realistic background were selling points. My business associates and I navigated without trouble through metropolitan areas as well as remote rural areas even identifying addresses that were not available on other GPS devises. Back in California, the traffic reporting function works well when traveling in metropolitan areas. As I have a factory installed GPS on my vehicle I only use the 3590 LMT when driving in areas of high traffic as my factory installed unit does not have traffic reporting. The only big negative is that 3590 LMT does not perform to the same level on private community roads that it does on public roads. If I put in my own address in a private community the 3590 lmt takes me on a four mile trek despite showing the roads that would correctly get me to my home. At least I know my own way home. Pros: Does everything it claims to do on public roads. Cons: On private roads in private communities the 3590 LMT struggles with proper directions. The voice directions for turns and such seem to be a little slow and come at the last seconds before a turn. 13 out of 13 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin Nuvi 3590LMT Written By easygany, Renton, WA on Sunday, June 24, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Another excellent product from Garmin. Lifetime maps and traffic is an outstanding feature, highly recommendable. It's not perfect but the features satisfy essential needs for navigation, easy to use. Pros: Voice command feature, nice 3D graphics, split screen on exit ramps and a whole lot more. Cons: very limited choice of American voices, could be better if male voices were included 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No No Australian lady voices - very limited voices Written By Reviewer, Houston on Monday, June 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was disappointed to see that Garmin chose not to include the same voices that had been with the last several Nuvi machines I have had. I had gotten used to the Australian lady's voice and now there is only one voice with text to speech. It is possible to buy some, in my opinion, silly voices. Nothing really any good. Other than that, the machine works well. The voice command works pretty well. However, sometimes it does not give enough time to give the street address and city and state, which is required. It cuts you off unless you speak very quickly and then gives the wrong answer. However, other than the above two complaints, it seems to work better than previous versions and the maps are updated for free. Pros: Works pretty good. Is accurate. Cons: No longer has the voices from the previous Nuvi machines. Sometimes the speech recognition requires very fast speaking of street address, city and state. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I'ts GREAT it took me a little while to figure it out how it works, but once I got it figured out , I won't leave home without it. You just sit back and tell it where you want to go, and it doe's the rest. I think that this is the BEST GPS that GARMIN put out yet. Thanks GARMIN. A bit pricey but WELL worth it.

It is easy read,follow path,tells if traffic jam, and type easy no complex better than Tom Tom. Keep up with Update!!! Thank you!!! 5 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No GARMIN NUVI 3590 LMT Written By DRIVER, VICTORVILLE, CALIFORNIA on Wednesday, May 30, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Seems all gps have wrong turns in them. I have only used my new high dollar 3590lmt a few times so far and it gave me one wrong turn already. However it will tell you as soon as within one block of the mistake to get back on the right track. I just love wrong turns in california freeways. But this gps is smarter than I am right now so it will be a long time before I learn to use all the gadgets it has to offer. I do like the louder volume than ,my older gps had, and it has a nice big display that is easy to see and the turn lane feature is really nice. Maybe I could give it a 5 star rating after I use it for 6 months or more. We will see. I would recommend Garmin gps models to my friends, though I think the less expensive models are really just as good. But hey, I have the very best Garmin has to offer. Kind of a status symbel--lol p.s. I downloaded new maps the day I bought it and it only took about 15 minutes to complete it all. I am running an I-3 laptop with about a 35 mbps download speed. If your download speed is a lot slower, then of course it will take longer for the same download. So know your download speed before complaning about it taking so long. And have a wonderful trip. Driver said that. Pros: Screen is large and easy to read--nice loud volume--looks quality and is quality--it dosent say recalculating all the time, it just makes a little bong sound so you will know it is recalculating--it is very fast--well worth the money no matter what. Cons: As with all gps units, you might be told to turn right when really you need to turn left, but this is a very rare occurance. But hey, no one is perfect. 19 out of 22 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin Gps 3590 Written By BonnieC, Anderson, SC on Tuesday, May 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great GPS, Great graphics and wonderful service! 3 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin 3590LMT Written By JGP, Midlothian, VA on Friday, May 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the second GPS in the family. My wife has an OEM Pioneer system in her Honda that I paid $2000 for and it's not half the unit that the Garmin is. I bought this for a trip that included some inner city driving in an unfamiliar city and a long distance trip of 1014 miles. Not only did it do what GPS's do very well, but it is a hands free phone and gas station finder to boot. When I had to go to the airport, it needed only voice commands (No punching in addresses) and kept me out of heavy traffic along the way. The 5" screen was nice to my old tired eyes. Pros: Does everything that a GPS should do well. The LMT option means lifetime free maps upgrades (A snap to install) and the traffic feature that directs you around heavy traffic. The hands free phone works very well. The EcoRoute feature plans your trip with the cheapest gas en route. Cons: It needs a better speaker, or a way to integrate into the cars audio. 12 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Very Good GPS system Written By Jon B, Cypress TX on Friday, May 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a very good GPS system. It is a bit less than fully intuitive to learn, particularly if you are converting from a Tom Tom and this is your first Garmin, such as the case with me. However, once learned, it is vastly easier to use than my previous Tom Tom. It is a very good system. Every once in a while it sends one on what may not be the easiest route, but I have yet to be misdirected on the long trip on which we used the GPS. The speed limit indicator is off about 10% of the time. But other than those two observations, this is a very fine system. I am quite pleased with the purchase. Pros: Easy to use, good database of landmarks, points of interests, hotels, etc. Great guidance on freeway exits. Cons: Not extremely intuitive to learn if converting from using a Tom Tom, although superior once learned. Speed limit indicators are off about 10% of the time. Better in cities than in rural areas as far as guidance on turns. 8 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Garmin nüvi® 3590LMT Written By drsokc, oklahoma on Wednesday, May 23, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) very, very nice. I'm not as smart as it is yet, but I'm gaining. It will do most everything you want it to. what it doesn't do is so minor i think a 5 star rating is still deserving. Pros: almost totally voice controlled. split screen at critical points very nice. shows you which lane to get in for a turn way in advance. Cons: a bit larger than the average GPS. My last one had weather info through the gps........this one requires a phone. 4 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Best i've seen! Written By Ksan, Chambersburg, PA on Sunday, May 20, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Far better than the factory system in my wife's Mercedes. So intuitive, and so "smart". Haven't found anything it can't do. Wish there was a way to install it in the dash! Pros: So simple. So quick. Even works well far from the dash. So smart! Cons: Nothing bad to say. 4 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Fastest Calculating GPS I've Ever Had! Written By TomH, Virginia Beach on Saturday, May 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've had six Garmin GPS units, two of which I bought for my two daughters. I also have a 2460LMT which I used up until I purchased the 3590LMT just a couple of weeks ago. Great screen, fast satellite acqusiton, like instant on and ready to go!. Took a while to get used to the different menus and updated searches and saving function for locations and favorites compared to my 2460LMT, but I like it even better now that I've learned what to do. Complete user manual at Garmin can help with questions, as the getting started manual is all you get in the box. The larger 5" screen compared to the 4.3" screen on some units, my 2460LMT is also a 5" screen, is really nice and gives you larger map views and other information. Of course, street names are spoken, and voice alerts are given in plenty of time for exit information or upcoming turns. Great unit if you want to spend the money. It is pricey, but well worth the extra dollars. Pros: Fast satellite acquisition when unit is first started up, large 5" screen, easy to find addresses and save locations. 3D junction feature leaves no room for error at exits or route changes. Cons: Pricey, but you know that when you are considering buying the unit. It's worth it to me. Doesn't have the red llight camera feature that my 2460LMT has on it. 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Wow Written By Weed, PA on Sunday, April 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I upgraded from a c550 Street Pilot. What a difference in technology over the past 7 years! We used it on a trip through Columbus, Indianapolis, St. Louis and Kansas City and back through Chicago. It worked great. I don't miss the "recalculating" message. It just recalculates and you never even know. The lane indicators were a huge help in all the metro areas. And the traffic updates worked well. We would get a message that if we took the suggested alternate route we would save 5 minutes. It was nice knowing where the congestion was. A great purchase.The size is a little big for in the pocket in pedestrian mode but is great for the car. Highly visable. Pros: Junction view, traffic, instant on, speed of calculations. Cons: None 10 out of 10 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Very Pleased Written By Tom L, N Fort Myers, FL on Monday, April 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I also have the nuvi 1690. My 3590 has a much better Juntion View. The screen splits in two, well before the next interstate exit, and shows the normal 3D map on the left and the 3D juction view on the right. It helps me to see this view early. I also use the search for Rest Areas and Truck Stops. The "Where To" screen is completely configurable and I have the key searches right on the first page. I miss the 1690's nuLink which provided Google search for POI's. The GPS POI list has had maybe 70 percent of my searches while the Google search on the 1690 hit 100%. I have not tried the Androit SmartPhone link yet. Overall - my 2 weeks of using the 3590 has impressed me. It's very good. Pros: Split screen junction view Fast response Glass, multi-touch screen (5" and very clear) Much better POI search process Cons: No nuLink functions Thought the Android interface provides fuel prices, it does not provide an enhanced POI search from the GPS - only from the phone with download to the GPS. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No If you want the latest and greatest Written By Lawyerprof, Nebraska on Monday, March 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have had this latest Garmin for two weeks now, and I am very pleased with it. The 5 inch screen is definitely worth it, as is the glass screen. I think there are a few features that I really don't need but I would still purchase this Garmin. If you don't mind paying about a hundred more than you should, go for it. It is worth the extra cost. I am going to try it in Canada next week so I may have more to say after that experience. 12 out of 13 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Nice GPS Written By David B, Birmingham, AL on Monday, March 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a very nice GPS. I had the old Nuvi 660 for several years, and this one makes the 660 seem like a dinosaur. Pros: Instant on, Satellite finding speed is incredible, 3D map detail is nice, sharp looking Hi Res screen, search function is awsome, looks more like big smartphone than a GPS (super thin), road speed is changeable, roads are avoidable, can keep track of your driving... I can go on and on. Cons: Cost, "Smartlink" app is only for Android... I have a Windows Phone... bummer. 16 out of 17 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs Love the 3D details Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 2/23/2012 11:22:00 AM I admit it. Unless it's a road I travel everyday, I need all the help I can get when it comes to directions. Which is why I really like the 3590LMT. The screen is nice and big, so its easy to read. Plus, the 3D landmark feature really makes a difference. In a major city, I can use them to quickly orient myself (with just a flat map, I sometimes feel like I'm going from one turn to the other with no clue as to where I am). Having speed limit info and roadsigns are additional pluses. The more information I can get from a glance at the Garmin's screen, the more I can concentrate on driving safely. Very nice!

If a natural disaster such as an earthquake, hurricane, winter storm or any catastrophe occurs, there is a possibility that you might not have access to food and water for several days if not more. It is important to take time now to stockpile emergency food and water supplies for your entire family.
According to FEMA you should maintain a food supply that will last for at least two weeks.
Typical emergency food and water items are meant to last for months or even years. Some products even have a shelf life of over 25 years. The rations can come in the form of meals ready to eat (MREs), dried foods such as powdered soup, egg and milk products, as well as freeze dried products.
Many people purchases these items for adventure minded individuals such as campers, back pack campers, mountain climbers, and hikers. Preppers and Survivalists are also the main purchasers of these items.
For more information on these potentially life saving products, visit our YouTube video on Emergency Food items HERE and friend us on Facebook to receive additional information. You may purchase these types of emergency food items online at our Web Page at http://www.bradleyssurplus.com/ or call 1(800) 503 4954.
Families may even keep smaller food items such as food rations bars, granola bars, candy bars etc in their car emergency kit. See our YouTube video and blog on Emergency Kits HERE.
The FEMA and Red Cross booklet is an excellent source of further information on emergency rations and water supply. Bradley's is committed to help individuals in case on natural disasters, adventurers, preppers and survivalists by being a source of information with our blogs and YouTube videos and by providing a source to purchase these items from a company that focuses on excellent customer service.
For further information on this subject, FEMA and Red Cross has published a 16 page booklet on Food and Water in Emergency. The link to that booklet is http://www.fema.gov/pdf/library/f&web.pdf.Read More

Interpretive Handbook
81128 :
Babesia microti IgG Antibodies, Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Babesiosis is a zoonotic infection caused by the protozoan parasite Babesia microti. The infection is acquired by contact with Ixodes ticks carrying the parasite. The deer mouse is the animal reservoir and, overall, the epidemiology of this infection is much like that of Lyme disease. Babesiosis is most prevalent in the Northeast, Upper Midwest, and Pacific Coast of the United States.
Infectious forms (sporozoites) are injected during tick bites and the organism enters the vascular system where it infects RBCs. In this intraerythrocytic stage it becomes disseminated throughout the reticuloendothelial system. Asexual reproduction occurs in RBCs, and daughter cells (merozoites) are formed which are liberated on rupture (hemolysis) of the RBC.
Most cases of babesiosis are probably subclinical or mild, but the infection can be severe and life threatening, especially in older or asplenic patients. Fever, fatigue, malaise, headache, and other flu-like symptoms occur most commonly. In the most severe cases, hemolysis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and shock may develop. Patients may have hepatomegaly and splenomegaly.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
A serologic test can be used as an adjunct in the diagnosis of babesiosis or in seroepidemiologic surveys of the prevalence of the infection in certain populations. Babesiosis is usually diagnosed by observing the organisms in infected RBCs on Giemsa-stained thin blood films of smeared peripheral blood.
Serology may be useful if the parasitemia is too low to detect or if the infection has cleared naturally or following treatment.
Serology may also be useful in the follow-up of documented cases of babesiosis or if chronic or persistent infection is suspected.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A positive result of an indirect fluorescent antibody test (titer > or =1:64) suggests current or previous infection with Babesia microti. In general, the higher the titer, the more likely it is that the patient has an active infection. Patients with documented infections have usually had titers ranging from 1:320 to 1:2,560.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Previous episodes of babesiosis may produce a positive serologic result.
In selected cases, documentation of infection may be attempted by animal inoculation or PCR methods (PBAB / Babesia microti, Molecular Detection, PCR, Blood)
Performance characteristics have not been established for the following specimen characteristics:
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Saturday, July 10, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (July 10, 2004) - East Tennessee State University women's golf coach Stefanie Reynolds announced Saturday that Swedish golf standout Maria Ringdahl has signed a letter of intent to play for the Buccaneers beginning with the 2004-05 season. Ringdahl, a native of Kalmar, Sweden, is arguably the most heralded recruit in the history of Lady Buccaneer golf. After winning the 2003 Trummenas Ladies Open in 2003 - a Nordic Professional Tour Event - Ringdahl was recruited by several Top 20 programs in the United States. She chose to attend ETSU and play for Reynolds. "Maria's goal is to play professional golf after college," said Reynolds, who guided the Lady Bucs to the program's first-ever tournament victory in 2004. "To do so, she needs to be a part of a program where she can grow as a person, while elevating her game to the next level. With the addition of the Warren-Greene Golf Facility, and the direction our program is heading, she will have the opportunity to prepare for professional play while helping lead our program to the NCAAs." In addition to her win at the Trummenas Ladies Open, Ringdahl also finished first at the Junior Masters Invitational in 2003 in Sweden, and also has three Top 3 finishes in amateur events this summer. She was ranked as her country's top amateur player twice in the last three years and is currently ranked third. Reynolds said Ringdahl is a special addition. "It's exciting to have a golfer of Maria's caliber that believes in our vision as a program and has a desire to help us reach a high level of success," Reynolds said. "She is traveling throughout Europe this summer in amateur and professional tournaments. She will join our incoming girls, Natalia Giraldo (Cali, Colombia) and Cindy Phillips (Johnson City) in the fall."

The thing I hate about Itunes is that you have to use proprietary software. What website can you buy the same (mostly) commercial music, and just download mp3's or whatever through a web browser?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Web Applications Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for power users of web applications. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Amazon offers this, but only for music. Also, as GAThrawn said, you can only download your purchase without proprietary software if it's a single track and not an album.
Emusic is pretty good and cheap, too. The downside is that it does not have as large a selection as some of the others. Also, it is a subscription based model.

Rated 5 out of 5�by ncmussss1 Love this scale Connected to my wifi effortlessly and the graphs provided definitely help me track my weight and set goals. I weigh myself every morning at the same time and it helps me set my motivation for the day. April 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by MattChazz SO FAR SO GOOD I've only had this scale for about 2 weeks and so far, I've really enjoyed it. I read some reviews about the consistency of the weigh ins being off, however, after making sure that the scale is on a hard, flat, even surface, there hasn't been much of a difference in my weigh ins. Easy to set up & awesome how it syncs automatically and populates in the Fitbit app. January 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by BoatDrinks This is a great product! I definitely recommend this scale, can be a little hard to setup (check your firewall settings), but so nice to just get on there and the weight is already recorded. December 12, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by Joshv Didn't connect and no support I was exicited about this product but after 2weeks of trying to connect it to my wireless network and reading countless posting, I gave up. It seems that it works for some and not for other. So I returned it back. February 10, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by Lorilb So disappointed! I love my fitbit flex, so I was excited to get the aria scale. Unfortunately, even though I was easily able to connect it to my wifi, it never actually recorded my weight...error message everytime. I returned it. March 18, 2014

How She Move
Bursting with raw talent and intelligence, Raya, the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, has always been the family's one great hope. She won the rare chance to break out of their drug and crime-infested neighborhood when she was accepted into the exclusive Seaton Academy. But when her sister dies of an overdose, the family is shattered and Raya is forced to return to the place she tried so hard to escape. It's not easy to go back--especially when one-time friends, including the tough minded Michelle, see Raya as a stuck-up traitor who left the community behind. Feeling trapped and looking for a way out, Raya learns about a step competition with a $50,000 cash prize that could change her fate. Most of the crews that win the big money are all male, forcing Raya to fight her way in as the sole female member of the Jane Street Junta (JSJ), led by the reining champ of the local steppin' scene. As sparks begin to fly between Raya and Bishop, a false move by Raya leaves her without a crew, and she finds herself in a battle between her loyalty, her determination, her family's ambitions and her heart. As the big contest approaches, she realizes it's no longer just about the money or the opportunity, but also the one thing that she's been missing in her life: a sense of self.

A walk a day keeps the heart doctor away
We have all known for years that exercise has health benefits. Here's yet another reason to get moving: Walking quickly for 30 minutes a day, 5 or more days a week, can really get your heart into shape. It can also improve your cholesterol.
The only problem is, left to our own devices, it seems that if you tell us to exercise five days a week, we'll walk three. For a while. Then we'll stop. And this will not provide the benefits that have been shown to occur when you are walking for five days a week or more. Darn. Where are my shoes?
And now you're probably going to get "cell phone elbow." Great.
Has the news of a medical condition called "cell phone elbow" kept you from talking so much today? I didn't think so. But maybe it should.
The condition, which your doctor may refer to as cubital tunnel syndrome, can develop when the elbow is flexed for prolonged periods of time. In this position, pressure is placed on the ulnar nerve, which runs along the inside of the elbow. Blood flow to the area is restricted and the ulnar nerve can become compressed and inflamed. Numbness, tingling, and aching in the forearm and hand follow.
The upcoming issue of the Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine reports that, although they do not yet have estimates of how many people suffer from this syndrome, researchers do know that the number is rising during the current cell phone contract boom. Treatments range according to severity and include deep tissue massage, occupational therapy, anti-inflammation injections, and even surgery.
Women are more likely to have cell phone elbow than men, researchers said, and it's likely due to our anatomy and hormonal changes. If you are middle-aged, you are more likely to develop it by holding your phone to your ear for long periods of time.
You can also develop cell phone elbow by bending and tucking arms while you are sleeping, driving with your elbow propped on a window, and sitting improperly at your desk.
You may be able to alleviate or prevent symptoms by simply:
* Sitting at your desk with your hands positioned at a 90-degree angle
* Using a hands-free headset while talking on the phone
* Using elbow pads to keep arms straighter while sleeping
Although I'm not in the highest risk age category (yet), I would say I have a good chance of developing this along with the inevitable carpal tunnel syndrome (which is still more common than cell phone elbow). Not only do I rely heavily on my cell phone, I am also in dire need of an ergonomics overhaul of my desk-laptop-office chair situation. First, though, I need to dig my headsets out of the bottom of my purse. In fact, I should probably do that today.. Before my fingers claw up and my forearm goes numb (this is no joke).
Are you as at risk as I am?
Have you experienced any of these symptoms? Do you talk on the phone enough that you are at risk for cell phone elbow?

Workout To Lose Weight Fast
The most important thing with exercise is that you do it! Any bit of exercise is helpful. Park your car at the end of the parking lot. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Walk your dog often -it's good for both of you and he'll love you for it! But, for the fastest way to lose weight, mix your exercises up with speed intervals when you work out. You don't need to work out for hours to get fast results. Step up your intensity and you'll burn the same number of calories or more in less time. People who incorporate sprints into their cardio workouts lose three times as much body fat!
Bursts of speed may stimulate a fat-burning response within the muscle. Whether you jog, bike or row, ramp things up to rev up your burn. You can start by doing 3-10 second all-out sprints with 10 seconds of a slower pace in between. Work your way up until you can do 30 minutes. A great place to get a sprint cardio work out is the track. Walk at least once around the track to warm up, then sprint hard for 200 meters, and walk for 200 meters, and repeat at least 8 times. Follow up with good old-fashioned callisthenics: push-ups, lunges, step-ups and sit-ups. You will see results in record time.
Strength Training. Whats the fastest way to lose inches? Slow down your strength training. Count to three when you lower the weight down to the start position. Slowing repetitions down increases the breakdown of muscle tissue. The repair of the muscle's breakdown pumps up your metabolism for as long as 72 hours after your session. Use weights that challenge you -especially near the end of the reps. Many times, even if the scale remains the same, your measurements will be smaller when you incorporate weights into your workouts. You will also burn fat much quicker because your muscles will be burning the fat hours after you are finished working out! Now that makes it all worth it!
Omega oils. Fish-oil supplements increases the activity of your fat-burning enzymes. You need at least 800 milligrams of the fatty acid EPA and 200 milligrams of the fatty acid DHA per capsule. Take 2 of these capsules 2 hours before you work out to get the most of your workout for the fastest way to lose weight.

Fantasy Abstract Art
Myths, fantasies and magic don't just exist in our imagination, but in abstract art as well. When these fantasies are translated to abstract art, then it is known as fantasy abstract art. This is a well known form of art that depicts all kinds of stories, magical legends, myths and dreams. Artists depict their own versions of fairy tales, fantastic beasts, Gods and much more in fantasy abstract art. Most of these art works are inspired from legends and myths across the world. Folklore from China, traditions of Africa and legends of Greece are some of the well known themes used by the artists in this genre. Needless to say, this form of art is entirely dependent on the artist's mind, dreams and imagination. Moreover, the interpretation of such works of art is mainly dependent on the imagination of the viewer or to put it more appropriately "fantasy lies in the eyes of the beholder".
Fantasy abstracts are generally painted on canvas using oil paints. This makes the work look more realistic and attractive. In the 16th century, Heironymous Bosch, a well known Dutch artist was instrumental in making fantasy art popular. As years passed by and man discovered photography, art gained new and versatile forms. Artists began departing from the conventional genre making way for expressionism, cubism and abstract art. Mystical forms were imbibed with new forms of art. This lead to the birth of surrealism.
These days apart from the traditional demons, angels and other forms of fantasy drawings, newer versions of fantasy abstract art are being developed. These include aliens, fairies, dark beings, vampires and characters from sci-fi stories. This form of abstract art is perhaps one of the most loved genres and is slowly finding popularity with the masses probably due to the air of mystery that surrounds them.

Kitchen knife: SKIMP. I see I'm going against the grain in this thread here. I use cheap knives from IKEA and an cheap knife sharpener from IKEA. If only the knives are sharp then I have never noticed a difference in performance between cheap and expensive knives.
But why do that when you can splurge without splurging?
The Oxo Good Grips Professional 8-Inch Chef Knife @ $20 US consistently beats all the $100+ offerings from Haekel, Sabatier, et al. In one review in Chef's Magazine (probably the single most reliable source of cooking info) this little wonder beat out everything except one. And that knife carried a $200+ price tag.
IMHO Oxo makes some of the best, and most reasonably priced, kitchen equipment on the planet. Outperforms the majors all the time.
Sometimes cheap and good can share the same space.
Now if somebody could just figure out a way to convince them to build cars...
