855 touch failure
Sometime today, my month-old 855 stopped responding to screen touch. I've looked around (with voice commands) but been unable to find a setting to undo this. I've tried turning it off for several minutes.
Can anyone advise
1. What I might have done to cause this? (so I can avoid in future)
2. How to get it back?

Other languages for the Nuvi 265WT
I was trying out the cantonese (chinese) language on the Garmin Nuvi 265WT and was very disappointed. No street names, exit numbers, etc. was spoken. Is there any way to correct this or is this the best it can do? It would be great to have the foreign language work the same as english.

Garmin 765T SDHC ?
Does anyone know if there is a certain class level needed for SDHC cards in a 765T? I had an unrated SDHC card that went bad. Should it have been a class 2, class 4 or class 6 or does it not matter as long as it is SDHC? I need to get another one and there is a price between the different classes.

Phantom Favorites
I've owned a 200W as well as my current 855 and I've noticed that they both seem to save a lot of searches into the Favorites section. I work as a hotshot courier so I search for around 40 plus locations a day and I very rarely save any of them as favorites but I notice at the end of each day that there are at least 10 new favorites in my file.

Constant display of rest areas on 255WT
Have a 255wt and old sp 2610. The 2610 will show rest areas as I travel whether I request it to or not, as long as I am under (or is it over) the 8-mile zoom level. I would like the 255 to do this as well. I have downloaded the rest area POI database and installed it, but I still do not see a constant display of rest areas. Is there a way to customize the display to acccomplish this?

I recently purchased a Garmin 255W. Are there any maps that I should upload other than what it came with?











Tiger Woods and GPS
Perhaps if Tiger had been using his GPS to find his way home after a Golf game he wouldn't be in the trouble he is in now. Too bad he followed something else that Garmin doesn't make.
