Garmin talk

Does anyone know if the Garmin 1350T has free lifetime map updates? How about free traffic updates? Spoken street names? Lane assist? Just considering buying one online and the site does not give me enough info on these questions. Thanks for any answers you can provide. What model does have all these features if the above model# does not?

A couple new voice updates for my nuvi 750, 855 and 295W via WebUpdater, so I assume that all Garmin devices with Emily and Daniel have the update available.

Emily: Changes from version 2.30 to version 2.40
Daniel: Changes from version 2.00 to version 2.10

Both updates are identical:

Improved pronunciation of highways containing a letter followed by 3 numbers.

I haven't downloaded it yet, but the lifetime updater says it is available. The download started but I aborted it because I prefer to use the older method of downloading since the new lifetime updater hangs at .05% when installing the computer files.

Having a problem in loading wav files on a 1450. Using the latest POI loader with Sox,exe( 14.0.1) inserted into the same folder as the POI loader. When using the POI loader to send the file to the GPS I get no indication of Sox involvement in the process. I just get a message that Poi loader successfully loaded the file.

First day with the 2595 and I have most (some) of it figured out...but...Is there a way to have the custom poi's show up on maps without all the pre-loaded poi's being visible? Thanks for any help!

There's maps for North America (City Navigator® North America NT) and maps for South America (City Navigator® South America NT and )... but are there maps for Central America?

Any suggestions for Belize, Costa Rica, etc?

thanks in advance.

How do I check to see if they are working ?
I'm using a nuvi 1450

This popped up when I plugged my 3790 LMT into Web Updater today.

First Web Updater Updated it self then This showed up nuvi 37xx (GCD File) software version 4.60 with a whole list of changes:

Arent we do for a garmin map update??

My Nuvi 1470 has been very flakey since installing the 2012.1 maps. Bizarre routing mostly and now it is getting stuck at 99% when calculating certain routes. Anyone else have this issue?

Amazon has the Garmin 1490LMT for $159.99 today at:

Finally retired my old nuvi 350, still worked, but 2009 maps had me flying through the cornfields in too many places, and the stores kept moving around.
Wife just gave me a 1490 LMT, seems really nice

any words of wisdom

I'm trying to remove all my favorites, rename them (in MapSource) to something that makes more sense, then re-upload them to my 560LMT.

When I delete my favorites, then restart the GPS, they all come back! I've already deleted all the .gpx files form the /GPX/archive directory.

Thanks all!

Hello All:

I have been noticing many sensors going up around intersections where I travel in NJ.

I now have a suction-mounted smart phone holder for my car. Would it be useful if I took a picture of the intersection(s) where I am seeing these sensors (probably red light and/or speed cameras)?

Yours,

Watchful Eye in NJ

Hi everyone,

Just purchased the 3490 after hearing about the new traffic features. Previous gps was 1690, i was suprised not to see fuel prices or airline schedules etc. I'm not sure if these can be downloaded, it has a lot of nice features didn't think it was worth the change.

I received this from Garmin when I had another issue. Just thought that I would pass it on.

FYI,

- Released Nov 1 -

Changes made from version 4.20 to 4.30:
Added upcoming streets to the map banner if no route is active.
Fixed an error that caused imported tracks to not route properly.
Fixed an error with the PIN entry page on OEM units.

I logged onto "My Garmin" and was told I had a software update available. Downloaded it. Then downloaded the Map Update (from 2012.10 to 2012.20). After the download finished and unit was ready to install, a message came up that there was not enough room in the unit for US and Canada maps (which i DID have previously), so I had to settle for the US only. WHY?????

has the 255W been replaced by a new model if so which one?
