Mistake in voice street numbers - 260W
Used my wife's Garmin 260W to find a location on the edge of the next county. The streets were in the 200's (203rd Street)in that location. The GPS kept announcing street numbers without the "2"; just "hundred third street". Anyone else aware of this?

Nuvi 205 Extras
I have a nuvi 205, updated the firmware just last month, but there has been this one category in the tools section called extra's and it seems to be empty?
What is supposed to be there, can I put something in there?

I thought I knew my right from my left...
Not sure the Garmin 265WT does.. LOL.
A couple of times that I tried it when finding alternate ways of getting to a destination I knew the whereabouts of, it told me my destination would be up ahead on the left when it was clearly on the right. Did it the other way too a time or two.

Favorites from Google Map
Over the past two years I have downloaded favorites to my Nuvi 750 from Google Maps. These go directly to my favorites and I use them for where they take me then I delete them when not needed anymore.
I looked at my files on my Nuvi and all the favorites I downloaded and deleted are still in my files.
I know I can go in and delete them, but why did they not delete when I deleted them from favorites? Is there a way to get any of these back in my favorites?

Poi folders?
How do I make categories in my POI file similar to your Traffic camera POI files. I'm using the Costco list as a test. When I go into Garmin's POILoader. It loads the Costco stuff under extras, as individual stores. IE
selecting extras will give me
Costco San Francisco ...
Costco South San Francisco ...
etc...
I would like it to show
Costco Stores

New MSN Traffic from Hamilton Ontario station
I'm getting a traffic signal from 102.9 in Hamilton (CKDS-FM) which is an Astral Media owned station. Strange but true, and GREAT news if it stays up!

How to use POI Files
I am new to Garmin/GPS and I just found this site. I downloaded a brewery PIO file and installed it on my Garmin.
I understand the PIO file is a custom PIO and doesnt not append my preloaded files from Garmin.

Metro Area Projects
I have a Nuvi 760, I would like to know how I would upload a Metro Area project (New York). Do all the different folder headings go into one folder? Can someone give me the procedure or reference where I can find the information. Thank You.
