Nuvi 205w Case

I just recently got my garmin 205w and was just on ebay looking for cases to protect it. I didnt really see any that held the gps, charger and mount though and I think this would be a really nice feature to hold the mount and charger along with the gps. Has anyone found any cases that do this? If so please let me know where you got it. Thanks! P.S.

navteq fm traffic in Rochester NY

I own a Garmin nuvi 205 and I have purchased the FM antenna/power cord. I do receive traffic in the currently supported areas. Yesterday morning (7/15/09) the traffic indicator was displayed on my unit while driving in Rochester. It showed two locations in Buffalo and one on the NY Thruway just east of Rochester.

765T tells me it's time to update the map!

OK, I bought a nuvi 765T on July 1. It came with NT 2010.10. So far, so good. A couple of days ago when I turned on the unit, I got the "Your map is more than a year old" screen before I could get the "Agree" screen. Very strange, I thought. Even stranger is that I got the same "Update" screen this evening when I turned on the computer.

Garmin 765T...Is it about the destination, or is it about the journey?

Bread Crumbs

On the 885T it looks like Im leaving bread crumbs on the screen in the form of blue lines. Is there anyway to turn them off or clear them.

Volume

I have the Garmin 885T, the speech Vol is very low. I tried used TTS Voice Editor but I cant get it to work. Can someone tell me how to use the editor? I just went into the Text Editor and it shows me that the vol is set at 99% but its still low.

Why don't I see the Custom POI's on my nuvi 255w map?

I loaded a bunch of custom POI's from this site (ex: McDonald's locations) and the associated bmp file using the POI loader from Garmin and when I am on the road, the POI's do not show up on the map. I double checked that they are all loaded in the extras folder. Does anyone know how to get them to show up as I drive?

Traffic

I have a Garmin 885T. It seems that my traffic from my 660 works great in the 885T .. What would happen if I installed the MSN in the 885T Would I be able to receive both traffic, I know I would have to change the plug.

"Navigate To" Question

I had a TomTom that could not do this and have not found a way for the NUVI. Is there some way to select a bridge, highway or tunnel as a 'navigate to' location? Let's say I'm someplace and want to get to the George Washington Bridge or the Bronx River Parkway. Does not seem to be a way to do this.

Nuvi 765T touchscreen seem to improve somewhat with a screen proctector.

Touchscreen problems are a well known issue with the 765T. But recently I have noticed that the error rate seem to have decreased after I installed a screen protector. Has anyone else found this to be the case?

NUVI support for large capacity SDHC cards

Just got back from a trip to NYC for work. While there I picked up a Trascend 16gb microsd card and SD card adapter. It's really for my Nokia N95 to store data files, music and Garmin stuff. But I thought I'd load some music up on it and pop it into the NUVI 360. Wow, it works! 16gb of music in the NUVI! Well, actually about 3gb right now, but I will definitely load it up.

POI files.

I purchased a Garmin 450 to use on my Harley. It was a lot cheaper than the one Harley sells. I added the Harley dealerships as a POI. On the Harley garmin which in appearance is the same as mine they have a category icon that shows up with the rest of them when you turn on your GPS. My dealerships show up under the Extra's category.

4 MPH speed alert???

My dad has a Nuvi 265WT and all of a sudden, it's giving him a speed alert at 4 MPH. He was looking at the different modes, like pedestrian, car, motorcycle, and set it to pedestrian while he was looking for some family grave sites. Then he set it back to car mode and now he gets an alert when his vehicle speed is 4 MPH.
