New nuvi 750 Owner with a question
Hi all,
Just got a nuvi 750 and updated it with the latest firmware and it shows that is has the City Navigator North America NT 2009.
I am a little disappointed though. My house and subdivision has been built since 2003 and it isn't on the map! I would like to know two things:
1 - Do I have the latest map? I am pretty sure I do, but wanted to be sure

Fastest or Shortest
OK, now here's another question....Fastest or Shortest?
It seems to me the Fastest setting runs on an algorhythm that looks for maximum travel speed, not necessarily the fastest way to your destination.

nuvi760 mp3 & jpeg file
When I load my sd card with my mp3 files it also put's jpeg photos in the photo viewer on my Nuvi. I guess it is picking the information off the mp3 file.
Is there any way to make the computer show these files,
when you look at the mp3 file?

How do I view POI's on map while driving?
Hi,
I just got a C550 and want to be able to view the POI's on my map as I am driving. Thusfar, the only icons that show up are the flag for my home address and the specific addresses which I added into my favorites. I want to be able to view gas stations, starbucks, whatever...on my map as I am driving.
HELP!!

Simple newbie question
Just got my Nuvi 360 and uploaded the 2009 map. Does this upload replace the 2008 map or add it. And if it adds it, do I need to somehow delete the old one? And if I need to delete the old one, how do I do that.
Thanks....this looks like a wonderful site. Can't wait to delve into it deeper.

WA - Western Australia
Just moved to Washington State. With my Nuvi 680 as well. Navigated to a store in "Bellingham, WA" and Australian Karen announces, "arriving Bellingham, Western Australia." Thought I heard wrongly. My son says "Western Australia?"
Anyone had this experience with "Karen"?

POIs Loaded, now what?
Hi - Please bear with me, I'm a GPS newbie. I have a Garmin 750 and just loaded the Staples locations POI file using the POI Loader. I got a successful message that it transferred over, however when I go into Point of Interests and do a search for staples, I don't see them. Since I've never done this before I'm just assuming that it should show up there, right?
Thanks for any help!

760 Erase/Reinstall Maps
Is there a way to erase base maps on the 760? I updated to the 2009 maps but then I used Bobcat to make a route and allowed it to install maps that correspond with the route...didn't need to and now it take longer to boot up. I want to erase the maps and just reinstall the 2009 maps unless there is a separate file I can delete that has that basemap I installed from Bobcat.

C550 and USB charging question?
Hi all,
I just received my Garmin C550. When plugging it to my computer in the USB port, a picture of a computer showed up on the C550 screen and I was able to see the C550 as a drive on my PC.

cincinnati chili
Just got back from a weekend in Cincinnati. The Chili Restaurants POI file has several errors. The first two places I went to did not exist. The next two had been torn down, never to be replaced. Finally found one, forty miles from where I started, so I finally got my chili.

Motorola Chargers and Nuvi 350's
I notice that I can charge my Nuvi from my 120V charger and the car charger that came with my Motorola Razr. I need a power supply that I can use to run my Garmin on the motorcycle and being the opportunist that I am, there are a lot more Razr chargers around than there are Garmins. Any reason I can't cut one of these up to wire into my bike to power my Nuvi?
TIA,
Air
