downloaded POI files disappeared
I downloaded a POI CSV file into my "documents" and when I tried to retrieve it thru the Garmin POI unloader it wasn't there. What is the procedure to download a POI file then install on the Garmin 200?

Garmin's built-in POI database
is this file available in CSV or GPX format? a lot of custom POI files contain many duplicates to the built-in ones, so maybe I can find a way to eliminate them.

MapSource maps and Nuvi 200
Do the maps in a slightly older version of MapSource have any better details/POIs than the built-in maps in a Nuvi 200?

Garmin 260 voices
Hi,
What other voices/languages are available on the 260?
I'm specifically looking for Chinese languages that are available on the 200W.
Thank you.

Where did my .gpx file go?
After running the POILoader, all the .gpx files in my POI directory are gone. Does the POILoader delete them after loading?
How can I pull the POIs out of the poi.gpi file? I believe this can be done with MapSource, however I am at work now and don't have all my Garmin related software here.

Interesting icon - cloud with lightning
I just recieved my Nuvi 680 yesterday and up until now i was getting an icon that looks like a cloud with three lightning bolts coming from it. And when i clicked on it it went to a screen and said something like nothing found. I also got this same screen when i clicked on the lower right hand side of the screen that is supposed to take you to the next turn page.

Google on Nuvi
I apologize if this has been answered before. I looked around and searched but have yet to find any information.
Does anyone know if you can copy a portion of a map from Google Earth or Google maps and use that as a base map in the Nuvi? Would it work with the satellite imagery available on those sites?

TourGuide Audio / Image
Okay. I've created a TourGuide for my Nuvi 350! For now, a single waypoint to test the "radius" based proximity. It works great! The GeePeeX editor helped a lot. I have a LINK directory with an MP3 audio file that plays automatically, and 3 JPG pictures.
This leads me to two questions.

Travelling at the speed of light...
...if not faster
See this entertaining Screen Shot from my StreetPilot C510. I'm not entirely sure what triggered this condition - but I wasn't moving at all, let alone going that fast!
The appearance of the TourGuide symbol is interesting too - the StreetPilot C510 doesn't do TourGuides!

nuvi 660 missing hwy
So I recently was given a nuvi 660 for the holidays. I live in Colorado and was plotting a course to Las Vegas. All was well except that the road I drive on was no where to be found on the nuvi 660. I have the updated software and maps, and it was no where. It is hwy 50. I live is Gunnison, Colorado. Anyone else missing highways? Any help would be huge. This is quite frustrating! Thanks ya'll.

How to display all entries of a POI file on a Nuvi 260
Ok, so I've loaded a POI file which contains 71 locations on my Nuvi 260. When I activate the file it only displays 52 locations (13 pages of 4 per page). How can I make it list all 71 locations?

nuvi 200 and Custom POI's on map
I've downloaded a couple of POI files to my Nuvi. When I select "Where To"..."Extras"..."Custom POIs"...[category], I see the list of items in distance order. I can click on one and click "Map", and it shows the item on the map.

Garmin Nuvi 360 Bluetooth
I'm a new Garmin Navi 360 user. Last week I loaded in the software update from Garmin. However the Bluetooth version no longers works. It will still recognize my Blackberry Curve but drops it in about 15 seconds. Garmin sent me a file that was suppose to take me back to an earlier BT version. But after installing the BT remains the same (3.0).
