IT WOULD BE GREAT IF GARMIN WOULD COME OUT WITH A SIMPLE WAY TO HAVE VOICE ANNOUNCEMENTS WITH NAMES AT SPEED AND CAMERA LOCATIONS INSTEAD OF JUST A BEEP,MOST OF US HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO PROGRAM OUR COMPUTERS AND GARMIN DEVICES TO ENABLE THIS FEATURE (IF THERE IS ONE)IT SHOULD BE AN OPTION IN THE SETTINGS ON THE GARMIN IF IT CAN BE DONE.
WHEN USING THE GARMIN WE GET ACCUSTOMED TO THE BEEP ESPECIALLY IN NEW YORK WHERE THERE ARE MANY CAMERAS AND DO NOT REALIZE WE ARE APPROACHING THEM AND THE VOICE LOACATION ANNOUNCMENT WOULD BE GREAT.
