Garmin Nuvi 200W SW2.90

The Nuvi 200W has new SW update available. It comes with new secret menu options which was I think were never there before on 2.80 or older versions.

Dont drink and drive. Be aware of low flying aircrafts. Drive as fast as you can and go to Jail.

Mounting a Garmin 7200

Need some help please. Looking for mounting suggestions for a 2007 Dodge RAM diesel. In addition to the sticky back metal plate that I would never use they suggested a bean bag. They sent one at no charge. Good thing because it would not support it. What were they thinking?

Where To Issues

I have noticed there is an issue with the "Where To" and then "My Current Route".

So here it goes:
You have a route going and you are traveling down the road and you hit "where to" and "near" "my current route" and then you go to the "custom POI", and "Culvers". So now you have the nearest 50 of the choice selected. But some are on the route and some are not even close to the route.

Software bug with my Garmin 680

Anyone else having this problem.

Extracting lat/long from My Favourites

With regard to a Garmin c330, is there a way to extract the decimal degree latitudes and longitudes from points that have been saved as "Favourites" in "My Locations" rather than Custom POIs? I'd like to remove some of my "Favourites" but don't want to lose the geographic co-ordinates. Cheers.

Is unchecking map totally benign

Hi - I have an N370, so both US and European maps. I am normally using one or the other, not both. But I do not want to take them off because I fear I would forget to put on, get screwed up with an unlock, or the billion other things that happen when one is leaving on a trip.

I am looking for a good deal on a 760 or 660. I know HSN had the 750 for 299.

Garmin Language Guide

I have a nuvi 350 that came with a sample file of the Language guide.
The sample suggests it would be very useful to have the complete language guide for use in a foriegn country or just to get a head start for learning a foreign lauguage.

Already Outdated??

Hello all, I recently got a new Garmin Nuvi 360, and already I have found that streets which have been made in the last couple years are not on my Nuvi, it even includes old streets which have been torn up. For example, HWY 40 in STL.... Is there a way to get Garmin to give me a free update?? Thanks!

Nuvi 880

Is the Nuvi 880 out on the market yet? If so, does anyone have it and do you like it? Thanks for the info.

Enlarge POI's

Hi,
I just got my first GPS it's a nuvi 660 and I was wondering is there a way to make the POI's larger? They are so small it's hard to tell what they are on the screen. I did a search and didn't find anything on this subject.

Is it possible to have POIs always visible?

i have a nuvi 360, and i was wondering if it is possible to always have POIs visible, or if it is possible to have only certain POIs visible? we went on a driving trip this weekend across AZ, and it would be nice to know if there are certain POIs within a few miles of our route, whether they be restaraunts, gas stations, or interesting sites. thanks.

Weird Message on c530?!?!?!?

I was driving into work this morning and several times the gray box message pops up "XM reception not available" or something to that effect. Anybody have any idea what the heck that was all about?

TIA, Ted
