Garmin talk

Interesting. Don't see a listing for a nüvi® 3790LMT on garmins website, but Costco Canada is listing it for $459.99.

My questions are about POI icons. I have the map detail set to "Most". If I am sitting still and zoom the unit down to 300' and use my finger to drag the map I can see the POI Icons. When I go back to navigating down the road, I never see the Icons. Also, I never get a Proximity Alert. I have it set to "Single Tone". Is this normal operating procedure or do I have something set wrong?

Hello,

I welcome advice to help me choose between a 255W and a 1350T. The first costs $120 and the second cost $148 at my local Radio Shack. I am not particularly in need of Traffic information.

Many thanks.

My brother-in-law asked me last night to load the 2010 map updates on his 330 since he is pretty much technically challenged. How much of the latest 2010 updates will I be able to install on the 330? Thanks in advance for the info.

Well, here we are in Sydney Australia cleverly baited by Garmin with there slim, sexy and state of the art Garmin 3790T, I use my GPS all day 5 days a week over 1200kms to boot, at first glance I was impressed with the look and reponse of the hands free voice command feature that seemed to have a good 90% hit rate with most commands and address instructions, but after a few days little things beca

Also only a few of my custom POI's show up, I have seen posts where this a known problem.
This is a nice GPS, but I do have a little bit of buyers remorse.

Garmin MirrorNavi

Wollnikom and Garmin joint their forces to develop a new solution to fit mobile navigation. The "MirrorNavi" replaces the original rear�view mirror, in which a Garmin nüvi 1255T is integrated. This provides many advantages:
• Better view on road, rear and navigation simultaneously.
• Integrated solution without visible wiring connections.

In the school alerts for north mississippi schools.The two for highway baptist are incorrect.The school moved years back and the property is vacant.just wanted to let everybody know.Thanks

I don't know why but it's often hit or miss with addresses such as 12345 Route 123, Anytown, USA. The nuvi couldn't come up with a valid street, nothing.

Droid X? Simply googled the name of the business I was looking for, clicked a few times and the navigation was set.

I have used S&T 2006 for years and like the way it works.
But now I have a nuvi 1450 and am thinking about getting S&T 2010. How well does it compare with MapSource? Anyone use Streets & Trips 2010 with their Nuvi? Is it worth $28.00 or is it a waste of time, money and HD space?

I was just reading an article about using a Garmin to aim a TV satellite dish. Has anyone done this and did it work?

I recently purchase a car that has a Pioneer AVCI X920BT navigation system. It appears that the mapping system is Tele Atlas. Does anyone know if you can get the redlight camera IPO for this unit?

I have always had Gramin units that the redlight IPO could be easily updated.

Hi all,

I just purchased a refurbished Nuvi 255W because I sent my 260W back after receiving a recall notice about a battery problem. I needed a Nuvi for a trip that I am taking before the 260 is sent back to me.

Here's my question: Will I be able to use the lifetime map update that I purchased for my 260 to update maps on the refurbished 255W?

Colleagues,

I've searched the forum for the answer to no avail.

I have a new 3760T with the CN North America 2011.20 loaded.

Is there a way I can install this map onto either Mapsource or Basecamp?

I have the unlock code, but neither program is recognizing them.

Thoughts?

any one know about the phantom alert for gps,,,if you know pls tell me how to free downlaod for my c320 ??

thankx

If this is the wrong place to post. please let me know. I read that I should post my serial information on the web if the GPS is stolen.

If your unit does not have Junction View or Lane Assist goto http://www.navteq.com/ and enter your route. The lane assist junction views should show on the left as they
would on your unit.

I plugged my Nuvin into my recently built XP workstation, and I get "USB Device not recognized. One of the USB devices...blah-blah-blah...." No more drive access to the unit, no more POI loading, no more updates.... What the heck???

Anyone?

Whacked gstart, POIloader, Mapsource, USB drivers and reinstalled all that stuff to no avail.

hi guys,

i've been using Redlight cameras POIs which are very good and I like to keep that up to date. more and more of areas surrounding me introduces red light cameras, the most annoying thing in the world ...

anyways, I have a question about Speed cameras. Since I started using this POI too I noticed it gives nothing but headache.
