I was trying my new Nuvi 350 today and could not get it to find the
Huntington Mall, The map data is Ver 7. Would someone please see if
the mall is found on their GPS. The mall is named Huntington Mall, it
is located in Barborsville WV. It has Dicks Sporting Goods and Sears,
JC Penneys an Outback, Bob Evans Cracker Barrell. The mall has been
there around 15 years. Thanks a bunch.

Paul:

My n=FCvi 660 (Ver. 8) doesn't have that Huntington Mall, either.

My DeLorme Street Atlas shows the following stores near 64 Mall Road,
25504:

- Logan's Roadhouse
- Chick-fil-A
- Arby's
- Olive Garden
- Cici's Pizza
- Bob Evans
- Ruby Tuesday
- Chili's

I found the following in the Garmin database, on that Mall Road:

- Olive Garden
- Bob Evans

Incidentally, the official town spelling should be "Barboursville", not
"Barborsville".

You shouldn't be surprised to find errors such as this in the Garmin
database, which is far form perfect. I remember, for instance that I
could't find a single Fedex or Kinko's (I have found some Kinko's
lately but still no Fedex) in the USA, and I have driven through some
40 states.
