What name is my old map under?

I use a Mac, I'm not use to these Windows naming strategies. I know I have the new map on my 660 but there appears to be a 2009 map for a few states that has been on there forever. I don't want to delete the wrong thing but I'd like to get rid of the 2009 map 'cause I keep getting notices that it needs updating plus it takes up room. What name would it be under.

Australian Karen is real & looks as good as she sounds

Garmin HQ's local paper did an article on the real Australian Karen:
http://www.kansascity.com/2010/11/12/2427262/putting-a-face-...

And, she has a website:
http://www.thegpsgirl.com

Would you believe she's doing a CONCERT? I can hear it now - "Turn right here" Applause, screams, groupies. "Arriving at your destination" as an encore.

Actually, she's interesting.

1390T

Does anyone own a 1390T, and if so, what is your opinion of it? A family member is strongly considering the 1390LMT (same unit but with lifetime map updates). The unit seems to get good reviews but some say the audio is not that loud. I remember reading the same thing about my 265WT but mine is plenty loud! Sometimes too loud. The other cons I've read about in reviews do not concern me.

Is my 855 retarded?

I just discovered something that probably explains why sometimes my 855 can set unused for four or five days and the battery will be down a couple of bars, the next time it might set for two days and the battery is stone dead.

Accessing a specif POI file directly on the GPS

I have a 755T. After I download a POI file from POIFactory, let's say one entitled "Passport America Campgrounds", how do I access that specific list of locations while using my GPS unit in the field (not plugged into the computer). For example, I want to know just which campgrounds in a area are Passport America, not every CG in the area.

Speed Alerts

I have a Garmin 785 Nuvi. Recently it has given me speed alerts. First it starts in grey color and beeps. Then it changes to red in color and still beeps. The alerts show 3mph to 7mph. These alerts occur on many locations in the US. This is NOT the same as the speed camera download although it acts very similar. Question is how did I acquire this new alert?

Change History

How do I get to the change history on the Garmin site for a particular unit? Going to downloads just tells you to use webupdater, but I know you can get to the change history page another way. I'm trying to find change info for a friend.
