Which Florida is a better map?
Probably because there are some good free maps projects available for Argentina and Brazil and Garmin does not include full coverage there, they have added Florida as part of the South America map.
However, taking a look side by side of the Florida map at the South America map and the North America one, at least at basecamp and mapsource, the maps were different.

Trapster says goodbye...
I got this email today from Trapster...seems they will be ceasing service. I seldom used the service but just the same, I hate to see them go.
After evaluating our ongoing investments, we have decided to discontinue the Trapster service by the end of the year.

nuvi 2699LMTHD Discussion
I'm upgrading from a 750 and have questions about some of the changes and differences.
I expected to have spoken street names but apparently that has been replaced with "Real Directions". I'm not buying Garmins explanation - what am I missing?
I haven't found the ability to create, edit and save routes like the 750 ie Route x with waypoints a, b, c. Did Garmin drop this capability?

Nuvi 3580LMT Internal Memory
The internal memory for the Garmin Nuvi 3580 LMT was difficult to find in the various webpage advertisements. It was reported as 4Gb in one post but is actually 8Gb as determined on my PC.
It is a nicely designed unit.
Does anyone know where to find a list that shows Nuvi memory for the various models?

Anyone With A 885T
Back in May 2010 I performed the 2011.10 map upgrade. At that time the voice commands still worked for navigating the basic menus ( e.g. "Show Map", "Where To" , etc), but once I got to the screen for entering the City, voice command where no longer accepted. I made some posts in this thread http://www.poi-factory.com/node/29015.

Atlanta HOV Lanes
I'm planning a trip to Florida and the Atlanta HOV lanes, are a real plus.
There are 2 or 3 locations where the HOV Lanes leave the main part of I-75 and then reconnect a little farther along. I tried to create a POI file that would force my NUVI 2555 LMT to force the navigation onto these divergences.
I have 2015-3 loaded.

lost voice recognition on 3790LMT
After I replaced the battery on my 3790LMT recently, I had a few oddities. (I accidentally hit the power button several times while doing the difficult opening of the case and dislodging of the old battery, so may have insulted the unit with some odd power cycles).
