Does Garmin ever update their pre-loaded POI's?
Does Garmin ever update their pre-loaded POI's?
Is the POI's updated whenever you download the latest software/map updates or are just stuck with the factory setting pre-loaded POI's forever?

BaseCamp Trip Planner
I was playing around with BaseCamp trying my best to get use to using it and it continues to be a very slow work in progress. Okay I have a trip that I have made for a number of years to Florida so I decided to use that for a start. Okay it comes up with a route that I have taken and is the fastest time.

Is Webupdater done?
So I hadn't updated my 3490LMT in months. In fact I was still at F/W v.7.50 and I had left the maps at 2012.40 since there were complaints at the time of losing some LA info on the next map update. Anyway, I'm going on vaco this week and thought it would be nice to update to the latest mapset and F/W but when I did, I was forced into installing Garmin Communicator and Garmin Express.

Step by Step OK, Verbal Not
We have a nuvi 50LM and recently updated to the newest map. Haven't had any problems until yesterday.
Yesterday I programmed in a POI to a diner near Pittsburgh. The step by step route was correct (I pretty much knew how to go but wanted to be sure).

2497LMT
My son is in the market for a GPS but doesn't want to break the bank on one. I haven't kept up with all of the latest models but the 2497LMT looks like it might do the job. I have an 855 and thought he would like the voice command. Any of you guys have one and how do you like it?

Nuvi 40LM does not recognize map on Garmin UK/Ireland SD
Hi all. I just purchased a new Garmin Nuvi 40LM and a new Garmin City Navigator SD card with a map of the UK and Ireland. I plugged the card into the Nuvi and tried to find available maps under Tools/Maps/Info, but it only showed the built in map (USA). When I plugged the unit into my Mac computer, it shows the Garmin and a device labeled 'No Name', which I assume is the SD card.

Does disabling Proximity Point Alerts also disable my Icons?!
Hi,
First time poster here! ![]()
I have a Garmin Nuvi 50LM.
My question relates to my custom POI icons...
I want to have all (or most) of the icons to show up on my Garmin whenever I drive close to my custom POI's.
However, I do not want the alert tone to 'beep' at all whenever I drive close to the POI's.

Nuvi 52 Screen Dim
Recently bought a 52 when my 1490 died during a business trip. Screen on 52 is noticeably dimmer than the 1490 even when turned up to 100%. Anyone else experiencing this?

POI Problem (warning for a 35 mph zone)
Had to drive from Mesa to Denver so I downloaded all the POI's I thought I would need. No problems until I stopped at a rest area just over the AZ/NM line in NM. Started the car and immediately got a warning for a 35 mph zone. Thought that was for the rest area but once on I-40 the warning stayed on until I couldn't stand it anymore and turned off all the POI's.
