Two things I would like to see

Just took a long trip with my new nuvi 350. Two things I would love to see added: some kind of pause button when using a route. If I stop for gas or food or bathroom this thing will U-turn me to death. I know I turned off the route just let me get some gas... sounds like a back seat driver. The other would be gas mileage checker.

Custom POI Question - c330

Whenever I add a telephone number to a favorite, the "dash" - is not a choice, all I have is the # and the * where is it? Any help from you all would be greatly appreciated.

garmin/vehicle directory

I was wondering if you can relocate the vehicle directory to your SD card and if so, is the path SD/garmin/vehicle or SD/vehicle?

Any help appreciated, I am not excited about mucking about in the garmin directory since I don't know what I am doing so if you have experience in this matter it would be appreciated.

Transferring Routes from Mapsource to Nuvi 760

Has anyone done this? I've created routes with newly acquired Mapsource v 6.13.6 and named the route and tried to transfer the route to my Nuvi 760. The status window said the tansfer was successful but when looking on the Nuvi I do not see the route created via MapSource. I only see routes I created on the Nuvi.

I did choose "Send to Device" and made sure Routes was selected.

Converting Magellan files to Garmin?

I d/l the Illinois state parks.csv and tried to load it in my 660. But it failed. I opened it up and found a different layout than I use for my 660. I looked at the author and noticed he has a Magellan and I figured that they must use a different format. I tried POI Verifier, but that was a no-go. And idea's on a quick way?
