If he's a Sprint/Nextel subscriber, he can use Telenav for $10/month. GPS can be problematic in Manhattan, due to the "canyon" effect, so a combo GPS/network-based service may work better.
The Nuvi 350 goes for $300 - $350 - you could gift him 2.5 - 3 years of Telenav for that - I'd assume that after a year or two he'd be familiar with getting around and wouldn't need it anymore.
An alternative is a map - most of Manhattan (except downtown) is a simple grid, and easy to learn...
