Maybe some 37x0 (like ours) have gps hw that is somewhat more compatible with the 34 fw. Going by the S/No, mine is an early production model.
Accuracy in 37>34 maybe less than in 3790 but I never have had any problems. I also have Nuvi 350 which initially had accuracy about 10 meters but after some firmware updates accuracy increased. On this model it's possible to turn on/off WAAS/EGNOS . After turning it on accuracy sometimes decreases. In new models there is no such feature like turning on/off WAAS/EGNOS. Maybe because now WAAS/EGNOS is widely available.
BTW I also few times erased region 41 and this didn't reflect on accuracy.
