garmin nuvie 680 mp3 player
Hello,
The mp3 player in my nuvi 680 does not have a stop button. I see all the other buttons but the stop is missing! The manual shows the button but it doesn't show on my screen!
How do I stop the mp3 player from playing a song if I want to stop it midway through the song other than turning of the Nuvi?
Thanks in advance.

How has your GPS saved you money?
My wife recently got me a Nuvi 750 for my Father's Day gift (early...ha ha).
However, we have been talking about getting a new minivan with a navigational system. However, we discussed with the agent and the cost of getting a new van with/without nav system was incredible.

Garmin 760 vs 660
How do these units compare? I just bought the 760 and have the 660. I love the multiple routes but a lot of other things I am not liking.
The screen on the 760 does not seem as clear.
The latency on the 760 seems more.
It seems like I have passed a street before it shows on me passing on the 760.

using icons with poi's
I know there is an article on this website on how to use icons with poi's but I can't seem to get it to work. I have a 530. I have all my icons and poi's in one folder in my computer. I renamed the .bmp to match the .csv. The poi's work but not the icon. Is there something I am doing wrong? Thanks

Hats off to Garmin (itching to drop)
I must say that Garmin makes a great product. Not long after I purchased a nuvi 750 I walked into a closed patio door and dropped the unit to a hard tile floor. I was shocked, not at hitting the door but, at the 750 hitting the floor. I assumed it was dead. To my surprise it worked perfectly and didn't have a scratch on it. I must confess I kissed it a couple of times.

Google Earth Plus
I have a Garmin 260 which does not allow importing routes from Mapsource. Would there be any difference if I was to pay the $20 per year for Google Earth Plus which has a GSP output function?

A word about installing maps to a sd card
While installing maps to a SD card using MapSource I noticed that if you installed Brazil on a SD card and then later installed Mexico on the same card, it was like a poi and over-wrote the previously installed map.

Loading POIs onto The NUVI Drive or SD Drive or BOTH
In playing around with my Nuvi750 I found what might be called a quirk.
If you save your Custom POIs to your Nuvi Drive they will be located at X:\Garmin/Poi\poi.gpi

Nuvi 200 track logs and new software 4.10 vs. 3.40
I assume that the nuvi 200 is capable of putting down a track log. I see now there is a way to enable this:
http://www.marcforrest.com/2007/11/15/garmin-nuvi-200-track-...
--a hidden setting that enabled if I used the older firmware 3.40)
Questions
Is there a way to do the bread-crumb thing with the Software version 4.10? (running the new 09 map update if that matters)
