Garmin c510 and c530 hack: Text-to-Speech

I found this website when I was researching GPS systems. Try this at your own risk, perhaps you will get lucky and get this cool feature or you could get unlucky and have a very expensive paper weight. Perhaps some of you have already tried this.

Works with earlier versions of firmware

There was a lot of discussion about this "hack"on this site and many users are successfully running it. However, I do not believe it works with the current version of firmware released in April.
