Kenwood DNX9960

 

Does anyone here have one of these Kenwood units? I am thinking about purchasing one.Can you change the vehicle,how do you download custom POI'S to this unit?,can voices be added?
Thanks

Here is a link that will answer all your questions

Here is a link that will answer all your questions for the DNX9960. I have a new 2010 Kenwood/Garmin unit and I do all the things you asked with mine including custom vehicles and map and custom POI's from the POI Factory. I talked with a upper tier tech at Garmin a while back and he told me that the Kenwood units have become a very large market for Garmin.

I just purchased 9960 unit today,will install on Saturday!!!

Your going to love the unit

Your going to love the unit and it has all the nice features of the later Nuvi's but with a screen that is 2 1/2 times larger than the 4.3" widescreen models. You will still be able to use the Custom POI's from this site plus built in traffic. smile

I liked my 6960 so much, I upgraded to the 9960. I absolutely love it. Like rjrsw said, it does everything you could possibly want.

Heading out

I will be heading to Edmonton next month this will get my traffic initialized.Redlight and speed cams are working locally. i done really care for the alert thou my KNA510 made the navigation band go red with red light info. Will get used to the new alerts thou.

Traffic

The traffic seemed to work ok,but .001 sec delay in yellow is not found.
For the maps to update my unit are all maps done in 3d with traffic or do i need to order certain maps?

It appears no one on this site can answer my previous map question. I will be going on a trip next Monday and will report back how my unit worked.
