Garmin talk

I recently started using the Traffic Receiver for my Nuvi 650 and notice that I can no longer see a list of driving directions (when navigating) by pressing the lower right corner of the screen.

any other camping spots in wa. other than public and state campgrounds?

Does anyone know of any mapping downloads for senic routes in NC that are compatible with the c330?

ive been to the garmin site and i dont see any vehicles for the 330 so i guess its not capable of have extra vehic?not that it really matters ,just different

Someone posted that you could increase the strength of the FM transmitter/modulator on the 660. Has anyone heard of this before?

Can someone confirm that this mount will work with the Nuvi (ball size)? I'm pretty sure I saw that posted here at one time. I already have the base on my dash from my 2610 and would love to use it for my nuvi.

Got a c330 for Christmas and being my first gps maybe I'm naive but man what a riot I love it!

Can anyone tell me if/how the "Red Light Enforcement" POI's work on my Garmin NUVI 250W?
I am concerned that because it does not play MP3 files this would limit compatibility.

Garmin Nüvi 760 (Where Am I)

The Where Am I icon gives you locations in:
"Degrees, Minutes and Seconds".

Is it possible to change this display to show:
"Decimal Degrees".

So this is probably a dumb question (I have lots) but where do you find out what version map (2007 or 2008) is installed? I have seen lots of posts regarding updates from Garmin from 2007 to 2008. I purchased mine in December 2007 so I'm assuming I have 2008 maps but I can't see anywhere on the unit, box it came in, etc. that tells me for sure.

Nuvi 660.

Just a comment, but i wish Garmin would move Work out of Favorites and give it its own button like the home feature. It is a daily trip and seems to make sense to me. Plus the fact, that Work is not one of my favorites, i guess in that case, maybe the inlaws should get their own button to....

I recently learned a nice way of loading way points into my Garmin from this site by just tapping on the car icon when at a particular place to save that location. Was just driving some back roads in North Carolina got lost (was not using the Garmin) but I found a great fishing place. I immediately pulled out the Garmin let it log up to the satellite and saved the place.

I accidentally left my Nuvi 360 out in the car in 32 Degree temperature about 4 hours. I took it in and try to turn it on and it won't come on. I waited 5 minutes and it comes on then went off after display loading. After many tries I plug in AC adapter and it come on and the battery is low. Is the cold temperature discharged my battery?

Maybe it's old age, or maybe just a mental block, but still looking to understand the theory.

When you turn your unit on, there is a "where to" option. You press "where to" and it takes you to a second page with various other options i.e "address", "food", "extra", "favorites", etc.

Garmin stock has gone from a high of approximately $123 down to approximately $68 recently. Why??

I am new to GPS. I have successfully downloaded custom POI's to my nuvi 260 thanks to this site!

I understand that in a gpx file, one can set proximity setting on individual pois. I have searched to try to find an example of this being done and haven't found it.

Anyone have a bit of code or a file they could refer me to to show how to set proximity setting in a gpx file? I would like to see a file so that I can grasp the concept...

Hey everyone, is there anywhere else i may get vehicles for my gps other than the official garmin site????

Is there a basic naming convention to the Nuvi series of GPS units. At first I thought there was, but now I'm not sure.

For example Nuvi 3xx and 6xx appear to be the same except for screen size. If you go from a 350 to a 360 you add Bluetooth same as a 650 to a 660...

After downloading the software update for the traffic receiver, I noticed in the Garmin directory the RemoteSW directory. The only mention of it that I found here was in a discussion re: Bluetooth. There are two files in the directory, 006B055301.GCD (12/21/2007) and 006B063000.GCD (no date). Can anyone tell me what these are for.

Thanks.
