Hello,
I loaded my i5 with Red Light Camera data and it accurately displays a textual alert on the screen.

However I have one problem:
1. I also uploaded a mp3 with the red light camera poi. But i don't get the speech warning when the visual alerts are displayed. Is the text to speech functionality available on the i5?

Thanks

Neither are working for me for about the past half hour - the Update-downloads web site worked fine earlier this morning for me...I hope this means they're about to release the update for my Nuvi350.

I can hope, can't I???

Just bought the Garmin c550. Connect the audio output to my car stereo thru a FM transmitter. But, the mp3 playing on the GPS is lack of treble sound. Is there way to adjust the treble level on c550? Or, will the next version audio player include such feature? I already set the treble on my stereo to max and it still sounds not good.

I have a problem with the volume levels not being of equal tone. My 360 is real quiet on the navigation prompts and really LOUD when listening to MP3's. I have tried both the internal speaker and the head phone connection. Both have the same problem.

Hello!

I have the Nuvi 350 with the GTM-12 traffic antenna. I also live in the Washington DC area.

I just went on my first trip to work with the traffic service working today and I have to say I'm disappointed.

It seemed like the FM traffic service only has information on the big highways.

I purchased my Garmin C330 specifically for the speedometer function. I have an old British Sports Car. See the Icon. It has a MPH speedometer and not a very accurate one at that. I have tested the Garmin in my van and it is spot on for speed. I can now mount the unit into the Lotus and travel up to the legal speeds without fear of getting nabbed.

I just bought a Nuvi 350 with 4.3 FW less than a month ago. It would be very sad to know if the product would be discontinued in the next few months. Does anyone on here know if Garmin is working on a 4.5 FW? Hown long would they continue supporting a discontinued product?

Updated 3/26/07

Changes made from version 2.2 to 2.2.1:

* Changed the software version number from 2.2.0.4 to 2.2.1.0
* Fixed problem which prevented the update of aviation data using AvdWebUpdater with handheld aviation devices such as the GPSmap 296.

I paid the $5.00 to download the red light cameras because I was impatient. Do I have to pay again when future updates come out? This question has probably been answered before. Pardon a newbie to Garmin and to this site.

Is there anyway to increase POI the memory of i5? I think it is 2mb now. Is there anyway to have it read POI info from a card? Thanks.

Does anyone have the c580? Have you noticed any coverage issues with the MSN Direct. It seems that I can be right in the central part of the coverage and the signal is either there or not there. Do they do updates every so often and then discontinue the feed or is it a constant feed?

I recently purchased a Nuvi 660 and plan to use it on vacations and trips. One caution I noted was that in California and (I think) Minnesota, it is illegal to mount anything on the windshield via a suction cup. Using the Nuvi 660 in mobile mode and in rental cars, that would be the first alternative.

Hi,
I'm going to Europe this summer and I'd like to buy Garmin's City Navigator. But since it's so expensive, I'd like to sell it when I get back.

Is it true that the SD-card version doesn't need an unlock code? Could somebody else use the SD card after I used it in my Nuvi?

Thanks!
Peter

Please forgive me if this question has been already answered, but I am "brand new" to the GPS scene. I just purchased a Garmin c340 and love it. However, I would like to look at the route the C340 is carrying me on before leaving. I would like to see the route just as I would if using mapquest,yahoomaps or paper map. Is there a way to do this?

had the Nuvi 360 for about a year. Now I just purchased a Nuvi 660. Does anyone know which comparable phones work on that system. I have a LG 8100, it works for calls (receiving and sending). But not any of the other features. Also I use Verizon Wireless. Any Help is greatly appreciated.

Hopefully someone can help me. Everytime I load the red light file all my other POI's disappear from my 660. What am I doing wrong? I am storing all custom POI's on a 2g SD card. Any help would be great. Thanks
