Strange routing (Ft. Myers FL to Denver CO)
Well, I've found my first dispute with MapSource and my Nuvi 260 routing software. Trying to set up a route from Ft. Myers FL to Denver CO, both refuse to drive I-70 from St. Louis to Denver, which is both the shortest and the fastest way. Even when I try to set up waypoints, as soon as possible, both systems immediately jump off the freeway on to state highways.

Custom Icon for Favorite NOT POI?
Hi,
Is there a way I can give a custom Icon to one of my favorites? I know I can change it to any of the icons in the list, but I'd like to have a custom icon.
Where should I copy the bmp file to make it show up in the icon list?

POI alerts on Garmin Nuvi 350
I recently bought a Garmin Nuvi 350 to compliment my GPSmap60CSx
used in walking and hiking. The reviews of the 350 looked good
and I liked the feature of being able to set up Custom POIs to
give alerts for things like scenic points, cameras and so on. I
made a test .csv file for a POI point nearby set up to respond
to approaching within a prescribed distance and downloaded it

SR = State Road, Sr = Senior? on Nuvi 770
I was driving in Miami and when I had to turn on State Road A1A my Nuvi 770 said "Turn right on SENIOR" A1A".
I'm pretty sure that I have heard Jill say "State road" many times. I think that it is down to the capitals: Normally the text shows stateroads as "SR8". In this case, the state road was indicated as "SrA1A". Anyone else heard Jill say "Senior" instead of "State Road"?

using an sd memory card
I just got a 2gb sd card since I have already used all the memory in the internal memory chip. My problem is that i cannot locate this new memory chip on my computer to download more poi's. I have the original poi file under the garmin file, but do not see where the new card is located. My garmin is a 650. thanks

SD card for custom POI's
I knolw this is a dumb question but I need clarification. Can I put all my custom POI's on an SD card and then put it in the NUVI and will the NUVI look at the card for POI's? In other words, can I search the SD card when the NUVI is running for the custom POI's?

POI Icons not displaying on Nuvi 760
I just upgraded to a Nuvi 760 from a 650 and one big difference I have noticed is that the 760 will not display any of the internal POIs, only my custom POIs will display. I tried zooming in all the way while sitting in a shopping center parking lot and there was nothing displayed at all. My 650 sitting right next to it shows everything.

Mapquest to Garmin
Anyone have a definite (or reasonably close) release date on when Mapquest will make possible their "Send to GPS" ability ? Seems google was out of the box first, but I think Mapquests database matched with Garmin will be fantastic. ![]()
