Garmin talk

I recently got a c330 (which I love) and I was wondering if it has the option to display icons for any POI that I may be passing. I've seen it in some built-in GPS systems in a few cars, and I was wondering if I could have that one mine.

I have this great new gizmo and I want to get the most out of it as possible

Has anyone noticed that in the latest POI Loader Beta 2.4.0.1 the ability to delete all Custom POIs from the device has been removed?

I'm not normally paranoid - but what's happening here !! ??

I found this case for a Nuvi 350 on eBay. Sellers says he is working on one for the wide screen Nuvi's too.

I have somewhat of a simple question. Some may view this as juvenile...however it has a mystery twist. Okay enough of that. What does those colors on my i3 represent. Some are orange and some are red. Does it represent what type of road I am traveling on? Please respond. I am a novice to all those colors.

I am extremely interested in linking my C330 to a laptop to pull extra data from the device while driving. Main goal is to try and develop an AVL type solution for law enforcement.

Does anyone here have experience with nRoute as my understanding is this the only software from Garmin that will allow this to work.

We have finally Rx'd the City Navigator NT North America v8 after a 4 week and 3 email wait - now it doesnt want to install. Has anyone had a problem installing this software?

I just purchased my 350 last week. I love it.

I had to travel to the east coast for business so I packed it with me for the trip. Once I got my rental car, I plugged it in and away I went. I noticed that I had to set the time zone to reflect EST.

this is sort of a info and (learning for me) What i found on the C530 (all c5X??) when you view the GHPS drive, I find the following.. (I hope someone can fill in the blanks for me...)

Folder are:
GPS --> Empty now (For GPS POI files??)
POI --> *.GPI (Custom POI files)
SCRN --> Empty now (for screen shots??)
RemoteSN --> *.GCd (I have no idea)

Hi there. I'm new to this thing. I was wondering how do you use these POI files? What's the difference between .csv files and .gpx files? How do I go about uploading and using them?

Just purchased a C 530 2 weeks ago. It has not been dropped or abused, but suddenly it will not turn on. Any suggestions before sending it back Garmin?

Does anybody have a POI Listing of the Deals Dollar Store locations US. Can anybody tell me how to create it?

Does any one know a source where Mapsource SD cards could be rented?

Hi,
Does anyone know what the additional POI capacity is on the Garmin I5 model? It comes preloaded with over 6 million POI and I have already added 29,596 POI from this site. I tried to add the Lakes.USA file to it and it said that there wasn't enough room left for this file to be added.
Thanks

I just purchased the Garmin Nuvi 360 and noticed the unit says street names ending in "a" as a silent "a".

For example "Marmora Av." sounds like "Marmor Av."

Has anyone else noticed this?

how do i find out what version of City Navigator N. America i have on my newly acquired nuvi 350. Thanks, great site by the way.

I have a C330 and have seen various discussions on how many custom POI's it can hold. I seen 2MB and Garmin replied to my email query with 3MB. I was wondering how many POI's this equates to. Also, how many do you have loaded into your units? I have 15,918 (so far).

Thanks,

Does any know whether Garmin is planning on making a marine/lake maps with contours and depths for the 350?

Thanks,

this garmin navigator is available for 384$ only.this is new brand and 1 of the easiest and best to use.

I just noticed my icons for Home and other Favorites just reset back to black circles...

I don't know how or exactly when this happened. I even manually selected the icon and when I power off/on, they reset back to circles.

Garmin just recently wrote me back about the Time Update for the c340. Here is their response.

Hello Orbital,

Thank you for contacting Garmin International!

I'll be happy to help you with this. The software update to correct this problem is in the works and should be out soon. We currently do not have an exact date.

Best Regards,
