Garmin talk

I am considering adding an fm transmitter to my nuvi 360. If I do will I have to keep my radio tuned to an empty fm channel at all times or can I listen to other channels?

I was channel surfing last night and came across the Home Shopping Network selling the Nuvi 750 for $299 ... just a heads up if anyone is interested... the cheapest price I found on the web price comparison sites was $382. HSN must have struck a deal ... Previous posts said HSN was sold out, but they appear to have more.

Hello,

I've read on here about the diganostic page that's available on the c330 by touching the right upper corner of the screen for 5 seconds, but it will not work for me. Does the unit have to be in the car? It is currently connected to the computer.

Is there a trick that I'm missing? I've even tried warming my hands first...

I hope this makes sense. I just picked up a Garmin 750. I figured out how to load in custom POI's, so that is not a problem.

I want to setup a custom route, a "point a to point b" type of thing. Problme is, it's using back roads so the GPS needs checkpoints along the way to stay on the "fun roads". Otherwise it's going to direct us to the main highway not far away.

I haven't found the need to use it yet, but wondering if one has to actually punch a hole thru' the label on the back of the Nuvi to reset it? Or is the label flexible and one can actually click on the button thru' the label?

Does anyone know the best way to get album art onto the Nuvi 360?

I am using MS Media Player to transfer songs to the SD card, but I don't get the album art with it...

Thanks,
-Mike

Is there some kind of program or utility that allows you to compare two POI files of the same name or category to see if there has been any changes or updates.

For instance, if I have two different Walmart POI files, can I compare both of them to see if there are any differences between the two i.e. updates, different long and lat coordinates, etc.

my car speedometer and my garmin speedometer are diffecurent. which one is more accurate?

I received my MSN Direct Receiver in perfect order, connected to their site and activated the unit. After a little while some information had been downloaded to my GPS and was accessible as expected.

OK so I got this Nuvi 780 yesterday, upgraded from a C340 which was really great but is dated. I purchase this from www.techonweb.com for about $712.00 with fedex 2nd day shipping. The item came with everything sealed and turn it on, wow! a beautiful 4.3 inch screen bright! It was a big jump from the dated c340. I turn it on and went to my car, signal was detected in about 2 minutes!

Does anyone know how to create a tourguide using mapsource? I am looking to be able to display text like the way Garmin tour guides show descriptions, phones numbers, dates, times etc...of different places/restaurants etc... I was told this could be done in Mapsource but can't seem to find any information about it. Has anyone been able to create viewable text and if so can you post how?

I have a Magellan POI file. I would like to transfer this POI data into a recognize Garmin format like .CSV or Garmin's POI. Is this possible? If so, anyone can provide your expertise? Thank you!

how do i install red light cameras just for the uk

Does anyone know how to use dashboard disk for Garmin? I want to set my nuvi on the car's console but I don't know how to use dashboard disk. Thank you.

i want to update my garmin nuvi 350 with uk maps where could i buy this from.

I just went to the Garmin web site and did a comparison of the Nuvi 760 and the Nuvi 780. They did not identify a single difference between these two units for the >$100 MSRP difference. What is the difference between these two units?

Thank you

This sounds like the bargain of year! It's refurbished, but still quite a discount. Buy.com is selling the Garmin Nuvi 360 for just $218.05!

Dose anyone use these? i would think the heat/cold would not be good for a gps unit.

I know this has been discussed a lot, for the Nuvis, but I don't know if I have seen anything specific on the C330 and C340 for the friction "beanbag" mounts. From what I have seen in the pictures, the beanbag mounts for the Nuvi has the arm and ball attachment but the C330 and C340 have the mount with the three pin clip-on connection and have the power connection integrated into the mount.

HSN has the Garmin 750 on special for $299.95, usually $399.95. Interesting. Not sure how long this sale will continue.
