Nuvi 650 changes route on return.
I get there without a problem, but for some reason the unit wants to change to a longer route coming back. Why would it change routes between the same two points?

Too Many Alerts for POIs!!!!!!!!!!!!
Put the rest area poi on my Nuvi 350. I used poi loader in manual mode and set the distance to alert at 2 miles. At every point, the Nuvi alerts me with an mp3 I created at 2 miles away. Outstanding, right?

POI Alerts
I recently downloaded the Rest Areas Combined POI into my Nuvi 350, but it doesn't alert me when approaching a rest area. I checked my settings and Custom POIs is checked, but I'm not getting alerted. What am I doing wrong?

Proximity alerts have no distance
I have made a poi .csv file for wachovia atms that I used Garmin poi loader on. I want the alarm to notify you .25 miles before you get to the ATM. But, when I test it, I have to pull in to the branch parking lot and drive very close to the ATM before I get the alert. No matter what I do, it does the same thing. The entries in the file are like:

Will NUVI 350 work with WINDOWS 98?
My regular computer (using WINDOWS XP) is in the shop and I tried to connect my nuvi 350 to my old computer using WINDOWS 98).
Neither WINDOWS explorer or POI loader would recognize the GARMIN.
I had no problems before with my WINDOWS XP computer.
Any suggestions?

Best bang for the buck
Ok, I know I am asking for it, but I am in the market for a new GPS and want to know what is the best one to get.
I don't need bluetooth or traffic alerts, just the best GPS for the money. I currently own a C330 and want to step up to a nuvi, if that is the way to go. I like the compact size of that unit better than the Streetpilot series.
Any help would be appreciated.

Garmin's Technical Support
Many have posted the good support from Garmin and I agree to a point. So they do respond and answer questions in the manual or send you Mapsource.
But what is your experience on technical questions? Mine is not good. In every case I've gotten wrong or misleading answers. I've always gotten an incorrect answer and after repeated emails get the right answer or close to the right answer.

downloading poi icons
I just purchased a Garmin street pilot c530. I downloaded custom poi's which worked fine. I thought it would be neat to download icons for these. Has anyone done this on c530 or know if it can be done . Instuctions for 530 say it acepts jpeg images, The icons on poi factory site are in bmp. I tried loading those with poi loader and also tried converting to jpeg with microsoft paint program.


How many KB is SD data card, City Navigator NT, Europe
Does anyone know how many MB or KB the actual file is on the microSD/SD data card, City Navigator NT, Europe?
My dilema: I have a Nuvi 350 (US) and all my music is on my current SD card. Can I combine the two SD cards or is it protected? Can the Europe Map be directly added to the Nuvi? Is there enough room?
